Sophie Turner suffered from an “identity crisis” when filming wrapped on Game of Thrones.
The 23-year-old actress - who plays Sansa Stark in the HBO fantasy series - admits she had to undergo therapy when she stopped playing the character as it had become such a huge part of her life.
The blonde beauty even went to see a therapist to help her deal with life after “Westeros”.

Speaking just days before the eighth and final series starts airing 15 April, the British star says: “Six or seven months ago, just after Game of Thrones finished, I went through a bit of a wobble as I think everyone would when 10 years of your life is suddenly like gone and you will never be that character again.
“I went through a bit of an identity crisis and suddenly feeling a little bit inferior. And then, you know, therapy really helped and now I kind of own everything.”
Sophie’s fiancé Joe Jonas was on the Game of Thrones set a lot and he found out so many show secrets that he had to sign a non-disclosure agreement.

She told Entertainment Tonight: “Joe was on set most of the time so he kind of figured it out and he was like, ‘Can you fill me [in]?’ And he signed an NDN or NDA [non-disclosure agreement] and everything so it’s all good.”
