According to JJ Abrams, Rey's parents were not in Episode 7.

So chew on that.

Knowing JJ, it also wouldn't surprise me if that was BS or some kind of semantics where a parent appeared in Ep 7, but not both her parents.
It would also fit with one of the theories that she's a Kenobi somehow. Or it means she could be a female clone of Darth Vader!
Only King could mis-spell a LETTER.
Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

JJ clarifies that statement.  He said he misspoke.  What he meant is that it wasn't REVEALED in episode 7 who her parents were.

So we're back to square one, because now it's impossible to know whether he screwed up and started backtracking, or if he really did misspeak.

JJ should just keep quiet on that type of stuff.  He got to have fun with his movie, now let the next two have fun with theirs.

Well, then, that's just stupid.  He never should have said anything at all.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Yeah, it's pretty obvious that Rey's parents weren't revealed.  I mean, other than the entire Internet talking about it.
