There have been quite a lot of rumors for a while that Jon Snow aka Kit Harington bent the knee to his co-star Ygritte aka Rose Leslie. (Spoiler Alert!)They might not have been able to do that on the show since she died and all. But we are ecstatic to see them happy and together in real life.
The engagement was officially announced today when The Times newspaper hit the shelves.
Mr K.C. Harington and Miss R.E. Leslie – The engagement is announced between Kit, younger son of David and Deborah Harington of Worcestershire, and Rose, middle daughter of Sebastian and Candy Leslie of Aberdeenshire.

Because the country is beautiful, because the Northern Lights are magical, and because it was there that I fell in love. If you’re already attracted to someone, and then they play your love interest in the show, it becomes very easy to fall in love.

I’ve moved in with my other best friend ,Rose, so I’m very happy. It’s going well, so she’s got all sorts of ideas for the house. I said to her, cause she’s moved into my house.
‘Look, darling, it’s important that this is our space. That it feels like our space. That you haven’t just moved into mine. Move anything you want around, change anything, chuck anything out’.

Kit’s known for ages he’s wanted to marry Rose but he wanted them to get a house and settle down a bit first.
