Sophie Turner and Richard Madden’s Reunion at the Met Gala Will Make Every ‘Game of Thrones’ Fan Cry

Something Incredible happened for Game of Thrones fans during the 2019 Met Gala, which was the reunion of Sophie and Richard, who played siblings from the Stark family, Sansa and Robb Stark in the show.

Throughout the years it’s been organized, the Met Gala has witnessed many happenings, some happy while others, turned out traumatic.  Many relationships debuted during the annual even held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, while there were also drama, such as the time when Nicki Minaj shaded Demi Lovato, an experience that the latter called ‘terrible’ and pushed her to go directly to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting afterwards.  And who could ever forget when Solange’s attacked Jay-Z in an elevator, because he apparently cheated on her sister, Beyonce. But this reunion is one for the books, and will go down as one of the best moments that happened during the annual fundraising gala.

What made the reunion epic is how the stars, both now famous apart from Game of Thrones, appeared to have felt true joy upon seeing one another.  It’s as if a real-life brother and sister reunited after being away from one another for a very long time! Turner’s character, Sansa Stark, is still alive and in the show until the third last episode aired on April 5, but Madden’s character, Robb Stark was killed during the 9th episode of the 3rd season, entitled The Rains of Castamere.  It has been 6 years since the actor was last seen in the show, but he admitted in past interviews that he remained close to some of the cast of the show even after leaving.

Both Turner and Madden has found success in their acting careers after being exposed to the highly popular Game of Thrones.  Turner plays the lead role in the Marvel movie, The Dark Phoenix, while Madden recently starred in the phenomenal Netflix hit show, Bodyguard, for which he won several awards, including a Golden Globe for Best Actor.
