‘Game of Thrones’ romance: Kit Harington may have found his Ygritte in real life, Rose Leslie herself
A major “Game of Thrones” romance is brewing and it involves none other than onscreen pair Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and Ygritte (Rose Leslie). Their romance onscreen may have ended abruptly, but in real life, the two were caught packing on the PDA during a recent shopping trip in Los Angeles, US, on Friday.
Moreover, their romance is approved by co-star Emilia Clarke, who plays Danaerys Targaryen, the mother of dragons in the hit high-fantasy HBO drama “Game of Thrones.”
“My goodness! You know, we like to spread the love on our show. It's a beautiful thing. She's one of my best friends, so it's good,” Clarke told ET on Saturday’s SAG Awards 2016.
Clarke teased saying there are worse things than getting caught kissing Jon Snow.
Harington was spotted with Leslie and looked well-dressed in dark-wash jeans and a tee. He was holding hands with Leslie, who chose to look casual and cool in a white blouse and turquoise maxi.
Jon Snow is a caring person and knows how to care for his people and his lover. Harington, too, showed off his Jon Snow side as he kept himself busy with Leslie and nothing else. According to ET, an eyewitness saw the two shopping at J Crew, Gap and Nordstorm. They had a long lunch at Café Gratitude.
Both stayed close to each other and were extremely romantic. They even exchanged kisses every now and then. Although this is the first time the two were spotted in public display of affection and Harington, 29, and Leslie, 28, have never confirmed any relationship, “Game of Thrones” fans are pretty sure that the two are dating.
Last week though, Harington and Leslie were caught enjoying dinner together in London’s Soho, writes Metro.
However, Jon Snow’s fate is still not known. Amidst tremendous fan speculation that their beloved character will be resurrected in “Game of Thrones” Season 6, Harington revealed that Jon Snow is dead and even told his fans to get used to it.
The show returns to HBO on April 24.
