Sophie Turner credits Game of Thrones for the many life lessons she learned during her adolescence.

Turner, 29, appeared on the Dish podcast and recalled for hosts Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett that her “amazing” experience on the series for nine years “informed [her] entire life in terms of like business decisions, just etiquette on set, how to act,” adding, “Everything I learned from Game of Thrones — and a bit from my parents”

Turner first auditioned for the role of Sansa Stark at the age of 12 and began filming two years later. She wrapped the series when she was 23 during the show’s eighth and final season.

Although she spent a large portion of her life filming the series, she confessed to the co-hosts that she has yet to watch the show, partly due to her aversion to watching herself on screen. However, she said filming the Emmy-winning series was the “best acting class.”

She noted that she “loved” filming the series, which also starred Emilia Clarke, Kit Harington, Peter Dinklage, Gwendoline Christie, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Lena Headey and many more.

“I never had proper formal training, so I got to learn from the amazing actors around me, which I felt like I won a competition,” she said. “But it was great. We all were a family.”

“My character, I got to live with,” Turner continued. “So it felt like we kind of merged into one person by the end of it. But it was amazing.”

Along with learning more about the craft and herself, she also quipped that she got her sex education lessons from watching the graphic scenes filmed on set.

She acknowledged the series’ nude scenes — some of which were intertwined with controversial storylines — were “really crazy s—.”

“I definitely got my sex education from that show,” she joked. “More, more than enough.” 

In October 2024, less than five years after Game of Thrones wrapped, she was asked by Variety if she would ever play Sansa again.

“Maybe. I mean, it would have to be the exact same cast and the exact same crew otherwise, I wouldn’t go back, and that would just be Season 9,” she said, adding, “I don’t think we’re going to do a Season 9.” 

However, the actress reiterated that she “loved playing Sansa.”

“I do wonder often what would she be doing now,” she told Variety. “Where would she be five years later, what would she be doing?”

Jennifer Aniston “liked” rumored boyfriend Jim Curtis‘s post about healing from divorce days before they were spotted together on vacation in Mallorca.

“Repeat after me: I trust that love can be kind, consistent and true,” the hypnotist said in an video posted on Instagram last Wednesday.

“It’s safe for me to be seen, loved and chosen. I release the pain of the past,” he concluded the affirmation.

“Repeat these affirmations to heal and recover from a divorce, breakup or difficult romance and begin to call in the new empowered, healthy and divine love,” Curtis captioned the video.

He added that it should be repeated three times in the morning, six times in the afternoon and nine times before bed.

Aniston — who was previously married twice to Brad Pitt and Justin Theroux — follows Curtis on the platform, and he follows her.

A rep for the actress did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

The show of support came before the “Friends” alum was snapped on an intimate Fourth of July weekend getaway with Curtis on Spain’s idyllic Mallorca island.

In photos published by the Daily Mail, the actress, 56, was seen wearing a simple black tank top with jeans and sneakers. She accessorized with sunglasses and a hat. Her rumored new flame wore a casual long-sleeved green shirt with shorts and sneakers.

The “Murder Mystery” star introduced Curtis to friends as they stepped into a sprinter van. Per the outlet, the group later partied together on a yacht.

Prior to their Mallorca trip, an eyewitness told Page Six that they spotted Aniston and Curtis in June at the Ventana Big Sur luxury hotel in California, where they cuddled up at the restaurant.

Curtis — who identifies as a “master hypnotist,” a “wellness pioneer” and a “coach” via his personal website — previously hinted at the romance months ago with a telling social media “like” of his own.

In April, the actress shared an Instagram video of her Pvolve fitness routine. After hitting “like” on the video, Curtis commented, “❤️💪.”

Eva Marcille and Michael Sterling have reunited more than two years after their split.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta star, 40, revealed that she attended the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans alongside her former estranged husband, 64, on Instagram — prompting a reaction from several of her friends.

In an Instagram video she shared on July 5, the reality star could be seen riding in a golf cart alongside Sterling as she told the camera, “Happy Essence!” She then panned the camera over to the lawyer who grinned widely. Afterward, she laughed and laid her head on his shoulder.

“Happy Essence! I’m floating🌻 soft launch,” she captioned the video alongside the hashtags “gang gang” and “essencefest.”

She also responded to one comment under the post that read, “She loves that man down!!!!,” to which she added, “and do!!!!!”

The post also garnered praise from her fellow Real Housewives costars, including Shamea Morton, who commented under the post, “🌻😍 Loved seeing y’all😍🌻.” The Real Housewives of New York star Ubah Hassan also praised the reunion, writing, “Cue the happy dances 😍😍😍😍😍.”

This comes two years after Marcille filed for divorce and stated that their marriage was “irretrievably broken,” according to documents obtained by PEOPLE at the time. 

“This has been one of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make, but sometimes life takes your journey in a direction you were not expecting,” Marcille told PEOPLE in a statement at the time. “Our children remain our biggest priority and the eight and half years we have spent together will always be cherished. We ask that you respect our privacy at this time.”

The pair share three children: son 5-year-old Michael Sterling, Jr., whom they welcomed in 2018 and Maverick Sterling, 5. Sterling is also a father figure to Marcille’s 9-year-old daughter Marley Rae from her previous relationship with ex Kevin McCall.

Despite the split, Sterling has still been a presence in the RHOA’s star’s life, as she even wished him a “Happy Father’s Day” on Instagram a few months after announcing their divorce.

Alongside photos of him spending time with their three children, she wrote, “To the best father a child could ever deserve. Happy Father’s Day @miketsterling. May you know and properly appreciate how much we love you.”

Sterling has also continued to post photos alongside their three children on Instagram. On Christmas, he shared snaps from a photoshoot he did with the kids. The three could be seen playing with fall leaves. 

“Merry Christmas from my family to yours,” he wrote. “We have moments and memories to make and cherish. We have love to give, and we have to give it. Time keeps coming. It doesn’t stop. Let us all enjoy this season and be grateful for what we do have!! Merry Christmas. Family business. From my family to yours.”
