Everything that shaped his way of thinking is a lie - I think he wont be happy about that at first. it will take time for him to come to grips with the depth of the meaning. Also, he may not want to sit on the iron throne - but remember he also didn't want to be Lord Commander of the NW, nor did he really want to be King in the North. I think the throne will be given to him, and he may turn it down and defer to Dani. If Jon is named king, and if marries Dany (the writers made a point of telling us that Dany is single now), he'll let her sit the Iron Throne. As you say: he doesn't really want the throne. To be fair, any man that marries Daenerys will be a royal consort.

Not if Lyanna and Rhaegar wed in secret. Jon would be king, but he'd let Dany do her thing.
