Kit Harington and Rose Leslie’s wedding is the ‘Game of Thrones’ equivalent of a royal wedding
It’s ecstatic to hear that Kit Harington (Jon Snow) and Rose Leslie (Ygritte) were a real couple. They were love interests in the show before Ygritte was sadly killed off in season four.

Kit told L’Uomo Vogue, “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.”
Now that they’re set to marry on June 23 (!!!) it’s like the Royal Wedding all over again—for GOT fans, that is. Still, it might as well be and here’s why.
