That's brutal.

Kit Harington infamously met and fell in love with Rose Leslie while the two were filming Game Of Thrones. Actors have admitted in the past that separating fiction from reality when it comes to pretending to be in love is rough. That's why so many actors and actresses end up falling for each other while filming a relationship for television of theater.  Often times, these couples break up after their time on screen is over. Not Harington and Leslie though. The two got married and continue their real-life romance although Leslie's Game of Thrones character Ygritte has been dead for years.

Kit spoke with People recently, and admitted his favorite scene of his wife was her death. "I liked her death. I know, it sounds bizarre,” Harington stated. “I thought she nailed that. And it’s the first time in Thrones that slow motion was used and I think it’s a beautiful, cradling moment as this battle is raging in the background. It was one of those incredible shots.” Harington also revealed that he dislikes that he won't be able to star alongside his wife in anything else. “The saddest thing is that we may never be cast again together because we’re too synonymous with Thrones,” he explained. “You know, I’d love to work with Sophie [Turner] on something, but are people only going to see Jon and Sansa? It’s gonna be hard to get away from that. I’d love to work with Rose, but we’re married and we played these lovers, so are we ever going to get to do that?”
