When James died, George still needs gold so he adopts Charming to pose as James in order to get Midas as an allie by uniting the kingdom through their marriage. At no point were James or Charming mentioned as being biologically related to George and only are related through adoption. Hope this helps :)

I have seen the shepherd episode again  and you're right but I think that George adopting a peasant's child was a dangerous move. I mean what if James not-royal status was revealed. George would be left without an heir because James doesn't have any right to the crown because he's actually a peasant. Anyways thanks for clarify this for me, I've been doing so much stuff recently and watching so many different shows that I begun to forget small details.
