"Game of Thrones" Season 7 release date is getting nearer and nearer. And now that the Mother of Dragons and the King in the North will finally meet in the show, rumors of them being together in real life are more alive than ever.

Kit Harington and Emilia Clarke have always been "Game of Thrones" fan favorites. And although they technically have a nephew-auntie relationship, fans are still hopeful that they end up together. After all, incest is not an issue when it comes to Targaryens.

Emilia Clarke is very much single but unfortunately Kit Harington is not. The 30-year-old actor is very much involved with Rose Leslie. The actress has been part of "Game of Thrones" as the wildling, Ygritte.

Jon Snow and Ygritte played as star-crossed lovers in "Game of Thrones" from Seasons 2 to 4. As reported by E Online, in an interview with Vogue Italia, Kit Harington considers Season 2, which was shot in Iceland as one of his fondest memory of the show.

The couple has had an on-off relationship for the past years. But unlike Jon Snow and Ygritte's romance, their love for each other is pretty much still alive in real life. According to Daily Mail UK, the couple has been pictured having a quiet walk in Northern Ireland. With their busy schedules, Kit Harington and Rose Leslie make it a point to spend time with each other in between tapings by flying in other countries or even just video calling each other.

The fact is, there are actually very few rumors and news about the real-life sweethearts, which is very surprising. This is since the "Game of Thrones" actor is non-arguably one of Hollywood's heartthrobs now. The truth is, Kit Harington and Rose Leslie just want to keep everything low key and private.
