Rose Leslie and Kit Harington

Game of Thrones wasn’t just epic television - it sparked a real-life royal romance. Jon Snow met Ygritte and they found a match in each other off-camera as their off-screen relationship blossomed during filming for season two of the show in Ireland.

Kit told L'Uomo Vogue: "The three weeks in Ireland when we were shooting the second season. Because the country is beautiful, because the Northern Lights are magical, and because it was there that I fell in love.

"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."
