The actress admitted that they even lived together.
Sophie Turner was not only a good actress, but also a person with a big heart. On the set of Game of Thrones, she found her love and did not want to let her go. We are talking about a dog named Zunni.
Zunni played the role of direwolf Sansa Stark in the first season. According to the story, after Nymeria, Arya’s dire wolf, bit Joffrey, Cersei ordered the animal executed. Therefore, in the second part of the saga there was no place for the beautiful Zunni. She immediately became homeless, because dogs of the northern Inuit breed were bought specifically for filming.
Sophie couldn’t leave her partner to fend for herself and decided to take her home. There was real chemistry between them.
“As a child I always dreamed of a dog, but my parents were against it. But we sort of fell in love with each other on set. I knew initially that the Lady was dying in the story, and prepared my mother for this, she was a little doubtful, but only at first,” Turner said in an interview with the Coventry Telegraph.
