= Solution

If $G\in\mathcal G\cap\mathcal H$, independence makes $G$ independent of itself, so
$$
\mathbb P(G)=\mathbb P(G)^2.
$$
Thus every event in $\mathcal G\cap\mathcal H$ has probability zero or one. The intersection is trivial modulo null sets, and the <independent sigma-algebras have trivial intersection> result gives
$$
\boxed{\mathbb E[X\mid\mathcal G\cap\mathcal H]=\mathbb E[X]}
$$
almost surely.
