Today in thoroughly warmed over celebrity romance news, Game of Thrones star Thomas Brodie-Sangster, who played the mysterious Jojen Reed on the HBO show, is dating Talulah Riley, who also has a pretty robust acting career (she played the host Angela in the first two seasons of Westworld), but is probably best known for being married to billionaire and new Twitter business daddy Elon Musk, first in 2010 and then again in 2013.
So Musk and Riley have been divorced twice now. And they’re probably not gonna get back together anytime soon, since Riley stepped out with Brodie-Sangster at the BAFTAs this past March:
Would you be afraid if you were dating a billionaire’s ex? I think I would. I’d worry they were spying on me with a robot bird with a camera in it or something. Or that I’d wake up one day on their space station for a stern talking to; you know how they do.

But enough about my short fiction collection. Riley and Brodie-Sangster reportedly got close while working on the FX series Pistol, about the band the Sex Pistols. Brodie-Sangster plays band manager Malcolm McLaren and Riley plays fashion designer Vivienne Westwood. That show premieres on May 31, unless Elon pushes the big red button I assume he has in his office and all of our TVs stop working.
In any case, that’s all we have for you today: two people are dating. One was on Game of Thrones (and The Maze Runner, and The Queen’s Gambit, and Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and…) and another used to be married to one of the richest and most powerful men in the world, which turns every relationship into a potential international incident. More if it’s interesting.
