The romantic entanglement between Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen is at the core of the [_Game of Thrones_](http://time.com/5088555/game-of-thrones-season-8-premiere-date-2/) story, and the real-life friendship between the actors who play them is going strong. [_Thrones_](http://time.com/game-of-thrones-2017/) fans rejoiced when Kit Harington and Emilia Clarke, who play Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen respectively, reunited at the 2018 Golden Globes. The co-stars were there to present the award for Best TV series musical or comedy, and [Seth Meyers did not hold back on the _Thrones_ jokes](http://time.com/5092065/seth-meyers-monologue-transcript/). Everyone’s favorite characters deepened their connection by season seven’s end, which also revealed the story behind their [shared bloodline](http://time.com/4917987/game-of-thrones-finale-review/). (Both the King of the North and dragon-riding hero are blissfully unaware that they’re related — an enduring fan theory the show confirmed via flashbacks.) _Game of Thrones_ may have lost the award for best drama television series to _The Handmaid’s Tale_. But congratulations as always to the duo for winning the internet’s hearts. > [](https://twitter.com/djhglows/status/950199530586345473) Many fans felt the photos were perfect for the fictional characters to announce a royal birth. > [](https://twitter.com/JonxDanyy/status/950197846166339584) > [](https://twitter.com/salmastormborn/status/950204540858589186) > [](https://twitter.com/dannyissues/status/950228817502785536) > [](https://twitter.com/l0ngcl4w/status/950451055363534848) > [](https://twitter.com/AviatorBAT/status/950463324713463813) ## Transcript [ MUSIC ] [ MUSIC ] [ MUSIC ] So empowering, right? I just think that this is such a bold statement for women who work in Hollywood to make, in solidarity with women across the world. And a person like me, I stand and represent survivors, and so, I know that so many women on this carpet are survivors, and so it just really makes me feel Wonderful.
