Jon Snow and Ygritte may be long over in Game of Thrones (RIP, Ygritte), but tonight, the on-screen former lovers and off-screen married couple walked the carpet of the season 8 premiere together. Rose Leslie and Kit Harington dressed chicly, Harington choosing a black suit, and Leslie wearing a stunning one-shoulder red gown:
Of course, this is not the first Game of Thrones premiere party they've attended together. The actors were at the season 7 premiere together in July 2017. Leslie wore a yellow and black dress, while Harington was in an all-black suit:
The two also attended the season 3 premiere together, way back in 2013. Leslie wore a black dress, while Harington wore a grey three-piece suit. At that point, the two had not made their relationship public, although there were reports that Leslie and Harington had been dating on and off since 2012:
Harington has spoken before about how he fell in love with Leslie while shooting the show with her. In 2016, he called the three weeks they spent filming season 2 in Iceland his favorite memory from his entire time doing the show.
'Because the country is beautiful, because the Northern Lights are magical, and because it was there that I fell in love [with my girlfriend Rose],' he told Vogue Italy. 'If you're already attracted to someone, and then they play your love interest in the show, it becomes very easy to fall in love.'
The couple were married last year in Scotland on June 23.
