Kit Harington Talks Falling in Love with 'Game of Thrones' Co-star Rose Leslie
Love is definitely on the set of "Game of Thrones" as Kit Harington finally opened up about his real-life relationship with co-star Rose Leslie.
As millions of fans already know, "Game of Thrones" isn't just the story of arrows and power but it's also the story of how Jon Snow and Ygritte's tumultuous romance went down in history. However, it's very different outside the realm of icy filming and juicy lines as the stars behind Jon Snow and Ygritte's characters are totally in love.
In an interview with Italian Vogue for its May 2016 issue, Harington was asked what his most memorable moments on set were. The beloved actor responded, "The three weeks in Iceland 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."

It turns out that Harington was already attracted to Leslie so it was easier for the chemistry to come out on-screen. Fans also suggested many times that there was definitely something going on behind the scenes between the pair.
Though they have never addressed the rumors about their alleged off-screen love, the two somehow went public early last month during the Olivier Awards in London. People reported back then that the two looked happy as they walked the red carpet together. At one point, they even shared a quick kiss.
The outlet also said that the couple first ignited rumors of a romance in 2012. However, later in the year, whatever they shared went down the drain. As everyone now knows, they have rekindled the flame and since January of this year, they have been spotted packing on the PDA.
Based on Harington's most recent comments, it seems he only fell in love with Leslie as they spent a lot of time together during their show's shoot. While Leslie's character has unfortunately been killed off in the series, Harington is obviously too in love at this time to allow his real-life partner to get away for a second time.
