Game of Thrones veteran Sophie Turner and singer Joe Jonas welcome their first child into the world, a daughter named Willa.
Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas have welcome their first child, a daughter named Willa, reports TMZ. I think I speak for everyone in the Game of Thrones fandom when I say: congratulations!
Turner reportedly gave birth to Willa last Wednesday. Reports about her being pregnant surfaced early this year, but the couple never made a fuss of it, not even when it became pretty obvious.
Turner and Jonas married in May of last year, in a quickie Vegas ceremony complete with an Elvis impersonator joining them in holy matrimony:
Now that’s how you get married in Vegas.
They did have a more traditional wedding ceremony later, completely with a fancy dress and guests, including Turner’s Game of Thrones castmates:
During quarantine, the couple has laid pretty low, although they did take time to film scenes for a DIY remake of The Princess Bride at home, with Turner playing the part of the Dread Pirate Roberts and Jonas as Princess Buttercup. Looking back at that, some fans wonder if Turner wasn’t giving us a hint about her daughter’s eventual name:
In any case, congratulations again to Turner and Jonas! And if Willa thinks her mom is cool now, just wait until she’s old enough to watch Game of Thrones.
