Amanda Peet, who has been married to Game Of Thrones creator David Benioff since 2006, threatened to divorce him if he killed off Jon Snow.
Peet told her husband in no uncertain terms ‘if you kill him, that’s it’ ahead of the shock twist in season five.
Fans will remember the Night’s Watch turning on Jon Snow in the season finale with all the members lining up to literally stick the knife in.
As viewers watched Jon bleed out in the snow, it looked like he was done for.
Of course we now know that that wasn’t the case, but at the time we were freaking out – and so was Amanda.
In fact she was so worried that Jon was done for that she threatened to divorce David if he didn’t make it. (She was kidding obvs).
‘I made him promise me, I begged him…I said, “I’ve heard all this stuff…[Kit Harington] got a haircut, I don’t want to divorce you, what’s happening?’ the actress said in a 2015 interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Her hubs tried to reassure her that nothing was going to happen to Jon, but when the scenes played out, she said: ‘I don’t love you anymore. I said, “If you kill him, that’s it.”‘
She also spoke about the secrecy surrounding Game Of Thrones.
She said: ‘It’s a little like being married to someone in the CIA or something. He’s in bed and he has his earphones and we angle the computer so that I can’t see the dailies.’
Hopefully Jon makes it through the final season to the Peet-Benioff home isn’t torn apart.
Game Of Thrones returns 14 April in the US and 15 April in the UK.
