Sophie Turner has revealed she was left retching when she had to kiss her Game of Thrones co-star Kit Harington whilst on set, DailyMail reports.
According to the report by DailyMail, the 29-year-old actress, who hails from Northampton, appeared on Late Night with Seth Meyers last week where she made the bombshell revelation.
In the popular GoT series, the stars have a sibling-like relationship as they play brother and sister Jon Snow and Sansa Stark
And it seems things got weirder during filming for upcoming gothic horror movie The Dreadful, which is set in the 15th century during the Wars of the Roses.
Sophie Turner is a producer on the film and she explained on the talk show how Kit was perfect to play the male lead.
Sophie Turner explained how she sent the script over to English actor Kit, 38, in hopes it would be of interest.
The pair know each other well as they shared a close on screen relationship for all eight seasons of GoT
Sophie Turner explained: ‘So, I sent the script to Kit and he kind of sent me a message back going like, “Yeah, I’d love to, but this is going to be really f***ing weird, Soph.”
‘And I was like, “What is he talking about?” Then I was reading [the script] and it’s like, “Kiss, kiss, sex, kiss, sex…” And then I’m like, “Oh, shoot, that’s my brother.”‘
But the two actors saw too good a chance to turn the script down, so they went ahead with filming.
Describing their kiss as ‘vile’, Sophie added: ‘We put it out of our minds, and then we get on set and it’s the first kissing scene, and we are both retching. Like, really, it is vile. It was the worst.’
The Dreadful doesn’t have a release date just yet, but it follows Anne, played by Sophie, and her mother-in-law Morwen (Marcia Gay Harden), who live on the outskirts of society, and whose lives are upturned when a man from their past, played by Kit Harington, returns.
Elsewhere on the talk show, she sent fans into overdrive with a wild confession – claiming she was to blame for a celebrity couple calling off their engagement after a single run-in at a Hollywood soiree.
Reflecting on the first time she met Seth over a decade ago at San Diego Comic-Con, she said: ‘We were going to have a great night… and I can’t name names ’cause I’ll get in trouble… but I had brought my best friend from school days and she saw an actor she absolutely loved and asked if I could just say hi…..’
She admitted she’d never met the unidentified actor before, so she gave him a weak little wave from across the crowd.
‘And that was it,’ she said… But it wasn’t.
‘And then later on I see this girl looking at me and she’s a famous actress and I was like “I have to go tell her how much she means to me”,’ Sophie recalled.
‘So I dance on over and she goes, “Can you stop f***ing flirting with my fiancee?” And I was like “Who’s your fiancee?” And she points to the guy that I waved at and I still have no idea who this man is.’
She concluded, ‘Turns out, they broke their engagement off that night because of my [wave].’
With a laugh, she added: ‘I didn’t realise I held this power.’
