The sexy Game of Thrones leads were seen getting very intimate in a recent Instagram photo, but sorry shippers: it was for a photoshoot.
This week, photographer Peggy Sirota shared this never-before-seen photo from her 2012 Rolling Stone shoot with the HBO epic’s biggest stars, writing on Instagram:
“This moment was unforgettable … The chemistry between these four was huge, as you can see… I asked them to kiss, I suppose love was in the air, & I was just lucky enough to be there.”

The photograph features Emilia Clarke and Kit Harington in a passionate embrace, their lips locked in a kiss. The image is both intimate and intense, reflecting the undeniable chemistry between the two actors. However, before the fans get their hopes up, it’s important to note that this was merely a photoshoot, and the actors were asked to pose this way.
Lena Headey and Alfie Allen also took part in the memorable shoot, which is why there’s a reference to “these four.” The photographer also posted this less romantic, but equally delightful photo:

Despite the palpable chemistry in the photograph, Emilia and Kit have never been linked romantically in a serious way; in fact, the latest rumors are that Jon Snow is still seeing his Ygritte, aka Rose Leslie, in real life.
However, plenty of fans are holding onto hope we may one day see this lip-lock recreated on-screen.

A common theory has it that the Mother of Dragons represents fire and our favorite Night’s Watch member ice, so their union would create a, well, Song of Ice and Fire.
Of course, this is Game of Thrones we’re talking about, so if these characters really did find love with each other, they’d probably both be murdered two episodes later. Maybe it’s better if they just become friends.
Game of Thrones Season 6 returns at 9 p.m. ET on April 24, 2016 on HBO.
In conclusion, while the photograph of Emilia Clarke and Kit Harington kissing has stirred up quite a storm among the fans, it’s important to remember that it was just a photoshoot. Despite the undeniable chemistry between the actors, they have never been romantically involved in real life.
However, the fans can always dream and hope that they might one day see this passionate kiss recreated on-screen.
