British actor, Kit Harington and Rose Leslie who both starred in Game of thrones announced their engagement on Wednesday, defying their ill-fated fictional love on the hit series in which she dies in his arms.
Harington, who plays Jon Snow, and Leslie, Ygritte in the series, declared their engagement with a modest traditional ad in The Times newspaper.
The actors, who are both 30 years old, met on set in Iceland and have been together since 2012.
Leslie’s character is captured by Snow in season two and later becomes his on-screen lover.
Her line “You know nothing, Jon Snow” has become a popular quote from the series as a whole.
“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,” Harington said in an interview last year
The lovebirds were reported earlier this year to have bought a 15th-century home in eastern England with a moat, a swimming pool and a banqueting hall.
The couple reminds you of Nigeria’s Banky W and Adesua Etomi, who both starred in The Wedding Party and will be getting married very soon.
