Emilia Clarke and Nathalie Emmanuel’s friendship has stood the test of time after they starred together in Game of Thrones as Daenerys and Missandei.
The duo shared a sisterly bond onscreen and it sure looks as though that transcends into their private lives, as they appear to have and endless love for each other.
From glamorous red carpet pictures together to adorable behind-the-scenes selfies, their bond is enough to turn anyone green with envy.
Even after Nathalie left the show in season eight, it appears they have remained close.
So while we’re still learning about all the times they’ve had each other’s back, here’s an inside look at their friendship of dreams.
They are proud of each other
Whenever Nathalie and Emilia are asked about each other in interviews, still to this day are they singing each other’s praises.
Nathalie once told People magazine that working alongside her fellow actress has always been a ‘joy’.
She said: ‘I remember coming back to work and hearing about (her surgeries) and being like, “Wow, it’s just so crazy and there you are, ready to go back to work.” She’s such a beast. As a woman, she really picks herself up and keeps going.
Emilia underwent brain surgery during season one after suffering from two brain aneurysms.
‘She’s really inspiring, I’m so proud of her,’ Nathalie pressed. ‘And then what she’s chosen to do with that experience, to help other people, is so amazing and I’m just incredibly happy for her and how important her work is.’
And there is no rivalry between the two stars, as the 31-year-old explained how they love to learn from each other.
‘I really have thoroughly loved working with her. I loved learning from her. And we just check in with each other every so often.’
They serve looks together
Whether it’s a behind the scenes selfie or a stunning red carpet look, the duo always look incredible together.
And they’re not afraid to post up some very goofy pictures onto the gram, which will will forever love them for.
Holding up the peace sign and pouting down the lens, the pair are constantly tagging each other in all the photos especially around celebratory moments where Nat wished Emilia the best of birthdays.
‘Happy birthday to my lovely friend @emilia_clarke…’ she wrote alongside a silly pic. ‘Have a wonderful day (not waking up at 4.30am)… And enjoy being around those who love you. May lots of giggles be had…’
Emilia reciprocated the feels when sharing a picture from a fan event, which they posed in alongside Jon Snow actor, Kit Harington.
‘All the love to @nathalieemmanuel my girl never leaves a bredren in da club….’
We love them!
They support each other
Girl power is an incredible thing, especially when both gals are extreme bad*sses like Nathalie and Emilia, who it turns out were both there for one another during some of their darker moments on set.
Just recently, Nathalie recalled the time the 33-year-old swooped in when an incident with a co-star.
Chatting to Vogue.co.uk, she explained: ‘[Emilia] and I always looked out for each other. If you’re the only girls on a male-dominated set, it bonds you in a certain way.
‘For example, in my first season, my costume was pretty revealing, and there was an incident with a supporting actor who made a comment about it on set – I mean, typical – and Emilia straightaway had my back.
‘It got handled,’ she noted.
Legends supporting legends – something we need to see right now.
Game of Thrones seasons one to eight are available to stream on NOW TV.
