WINTER IS BLUSHING

Game of Thrones’ Kit Harington urges Sophie Turner ‘to shush’ as she leaks embarrassing show secrets

Jon and Sansa played half-siblings on the show

GAME of Thrones actor Kit Harington has urged co-star Sophie Turner to bite her tongue when it comes to leaking the show’s behind-the-scenes secrets.

The 32-year-old heartthrob, known for playing Jon Snow in the fantasy drama, came under fire from the Sansa Stark actress for the amount of time he spent in hair and makeup.

She teased that he was a true diva when it came to perfecting his trademark curls, prompting the hunk to tell her to pipe down while at ACE Comic Con this weekend.

“Sophie Turner needs to just shush every now and then,” he said.

However after a laugh from the crowd, he opened up about the special bond the Game of Thrones cast share with each other, particularly among the Stark brood.

“I love that girl to my very bones - the thing about Sophie, Maisie, Isaac and me is that we were together for so long,” he went on.

“Richard [Madden] was definitely in that too. We became like actual siblings, we would literally fight each other. We have a very sibling relationship.”

Suffice to say the bickering is all in good spirits, then.

Still, the unified Stark clan could’ve panned out very differently if George RR Martin had his way with his original vision.

In his leaked pitch, Martin originally envisioned Sansa turning her back on her fellow Starks to have Joffrey’s baby.

Elsewhere, Jon and Arya’s relationship took a sickening turn with an incestuous romance.
