After years of endless speculation, movie actors Kit Harrington and Rose Leslie finally confirmed their off-screen romance on Sunday, during an interview at the Olivier awards in London.
Harrington and Leslie, better known as Jon Snow and Ygritte from the critically acclaimed series ‘Game of Thrones’, was seen chatting closely and sharing a quick kiss while walking the red carpet together.
The Huffington Post broke the news on Monday, about a failed romance between the two in 2012.
The lovebirds, however, rekindled their relationship and have been spotted displaying their affection towards one another publicly, since January this year.
The pair has had an undeniable chemistry while playing as each other’s love interest during the show, but the two had yet to officially confirm their romance until Sunday.

Mean time, Daenerys Targaryen herself, Emilia Clarke, shared her thoughts on her co-star’s budding relationship.
“My goodness! You know, we like to spread the love on our show. It’s a beautiful thing,” Clarke told Entertainment Tonight. “She’s one of my best friends, so it’s good.”
Clarke playfully added, “I mean, there are worse things than being caught kissing Jon Snow!” Khristian Ibarrola, INQUIRER.NET
