Peter Dinklage says Tyrion has feelings for Daenerys Targaryen

Dany and Jon’s pivotal boat scene from the finale of the Seventh Season of Game of Thrones is truly a game changer. It wasn’t just a union of “Ice” and “Fire” but also the confirmation of Jon Snow’s real name and heritage. But, the reason for the concerned look of Tyrion Lannister over that is yet to be revealed.

Just a month ago, we also gave our own theory on what that concerned look could mean? We discussed the different possibilities of it being out of a fear of the consequences of love Tyrion has known or a coming betrayal for Daenerys. Recently, Peter Dinklage who plays Tyrion Lannister in the series talked about the same with Entertainment Weekly.

Dinklage mocked and said, “Keep it down over there, I’m trying to get some sleep!” Then, he revealed a more detailed thought over what his concerned look over the boat scene of Jon and Daenerys meant for him as an actor. He said:

“No, ah, it’s complicated…A lot of the time with Tyrion, it’s professional and personal. Obviously, he has feelings for Daenerys. He loves her — or thinks he does. She’s awe-inspiring. He’s questioning that because he doesn’t have a good track record for falling in love. There’s jealousy wrapped up in there. And he loves Jon Snow, too. They’re the two people he has the most in common with, in a way — they’re both outsiders in their own families who have refused to follow the path their family has taken, and hopefully for the better. He’s wondering how smart of a move [Jon and Dany getting romantically involved is], because passion and politics don’t mix well. He knows the two of them getting together could be very dangerous.”

If his thought is to be believed, it will really be interesting to see what comes next for Jon and Dany now that they are both in love. But, what will happen when Bran Stark and Samwell Tarly finally disclose the truth of Jon’s parentage? We will surely find out once the Final Season airs.
