Actor Sophie Turner announced her engagement to singer Joe Jonas [on Instagram ](http://time.com/4983122/sophie-turner-joe-jonas-engaged-instagram/)over the weekend and _Game of Thrones_ fans could not let a perfectly good opportunity to make some Sansa Stark jokes slip by. After all, Lady Sansa Stark of Winterfell has already been engaged twice, but neither was by choice. Who is this man she has selected to be her husband, who may end up being the next King of the North or at least Lord of Winterfell? Is the engagement merely a strategic alliance for land and soldiers? Was this engagement just another diabolical move by Littlefinger? Or was Sansa simply getting engaged because she couldn’t let Jon Snow best her with[ his own engagement](http://time.com/4959071/kit-harington-rose-leslie-engagement-announcement/?iid=sr-link7)? Perhaps most important, though, is the question of whether the new season of _Game of Thrones_ will be delayed even further, after [Kit Harington](http://time.com/4456259/game-of-thrones-kit-harington-jon-snow-safe/?iid=sr-link1) and Rose Leslie’s wedding? The internet had a few questions and took to Twitter to ask them. > [](https://twitter.com/arakubrick/status/919620803905323010) > [](https://twitter.com/Minkki14/status/919737945703309312) > [](https://twitter.com/colbykayallday/status/919693480364072960) > [](https://twitter.com/alexandergold/status/919630726072475648) > [](https://twitter.com/misstaccato/status/919624985060065280) > [](https://twitter.com/liiiiiiiizzzz/status/919638256878100481) > [](https://twitter.com/meikaanne/status/919924326438092800) > [](https://twitter.com/kelsey%5Fhake19/status/919622818844856320) > [](https://twitter.com/umarriqbal/status/919631084006051840) > [](https://twitter.com/Alexrealtorpbc/status/919679642008682496) > [](https://twitter.com/maggieavelli/status/919717556512022533) > [](https://twitter.com/alappatjoe/status/919653537105174528) > [](https://twitter.com/steemarie14/status/919625090282778624) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4983451/sophie-turner-engaged-game-of-thrones-jokes/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4983451/sophie-turner-engaged-game-of-thrones-jokes/"},"headline":"The Best Game of Thrones Jokes About Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas Getting Engaged","datePublished":"2017-10-16T15:23:26.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:48:01.555Z","description":"So if Joe Jonas marries Sansa, does that make him a Stark now?","url":"https://time.com/4983451/sophie-turner-engaged-game-of-thrones-jokes/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Internet","game of thrones","viral","Sophie Turner"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb1903ff6c98e84a4/6988e20fab6d7709fa6b038d/sophie-turner-joe-jonas.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb1903ff6c98e84a4/6988e20fab6d7709fa6b038d/sophie-turner-joe-jonas.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"sophie-turner-joe-jonas","caption":"Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas","creditText":"Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4983451/sophie-turner-engaged-game-of-thrones-jokes/","name":"The Best Game of Thrones Jokes About Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas Getting Engaged"}}]}] ```
