Now that all of the dust, fire, blood and snow has actually settled on Game of Thrones Season 6, it’s a comfort to look spine on the crazier theories that never ever came to pass. No, Lady Stoneheart won’t be joining the series, and Bran won’t be whispering sweet-nothings to the Mad King merely yet, yet above all of else, we can easily finally allow go of that dumb “Sansa is pregnant” theory. So says Sophie Turner herself!
It all of started pretty superficially along with conjecture concerning dress wrinkles in an early Season 6 photo of Turner, which, offered the history of rape in between Sansa and Ramsay Bolton, swiftly mutated in to rumors Sansa may end up pregnant over the path of Season 6. Nevermind the season’s efforts to resolve Ramsay Bolton and Northern unrest altogether, supporters checking out way in to scripted lines, or the rate along with which Sansa would certainly be guzzling Moon Tea; Ramsay’s parting ninth episode words just lit the flame anew.
Now that Season 6 has actually wrapped, however, along with nary a hint of motherhood in Sansa’s future (take note exactly how considerably time should have actually elapsed, for Theon to have actually gained it from Winterfell to the Iron Islands, to Volantis, to Mereen), Turner tells The Hollywood Reporter that viewers were many undoubtedly misinterpreting Ramsay’s words, which a lot more most likely refer to her selecting up his inclination for killing:
Do you mean literally or figuratively? (Laughs.) I believe some people have actually taken [his words] pretty literally, thinking that she could be pregnant. Personally, I believe it’s a lot more figurative, especially due to the fact that months and months have actually gone on and Sansa actually hasn’t made a baby belly. So I believe he means he’s seeing permanently be imprinted on her in a method that he’s done such a terrible thing to her. He’s taken something of hers that’s so precious. I believe he believes that will certainly constantly be a section of her, yet I believe he underestimates merely exactly how tough she is, and merely exactly how easily she can easily forget him. Now that she’s killed your man she can easily forget him, and she can easily relocate on along with her life.
In earnest, the theory itself was borne of an ugly, ill-believed urge to perpetuate Sansa’s torment, though it’s worth pointing out that Game of Thrones (too several various other series) frequently motivate comparable kinds of fan speculation. Either way, Turner acknowledged that Season 7 would certainly a lot more most likely observe Sansa in an uneasy partnership along with Jon, the newly-crowned “King in the North,” also forming a little jealousy for her half-brother (secretly cousin) gaining credit for her victory.
We’ll locate out a lot more on the long road to Season 7, yet allow the Sansa pregnancy go, guys. On to the next insane Game of Thrones theory!
