Sophie Turner Says Joe Jonas Fans Don’t Hate Her Much Anymore, But ‘Game of Thrones’ Fans Are ‘Protective’

Sophie Turner appears on the latest Harper’s Bazaar UK cover, and among conversations about the #MeToo movement and her iconic Sansa Stark red hair, the actress of course dished on her relationship with fiance Joe Jonas.

Apparently, some JoBro lovers aren’t as big of a fan of hers as they are of him. When asked if Jonas’ fans hate her, she replied, “Yeah, I guess so. It’s better now,” before continuing, “His fans have gotten a bit older. If I’d been dating him during the years when he was appealing to the 14-year-old crowd, it might have been a bit more hostile.” 

Turner isn’t the only one getting some strongly worded fan messages. Game of Thrones lovers are up in arms to protect the rightful Queen in the North. “The people who watch the show are quite protective of me because they’ve seen me grow up. They write to him and say ‘If you do anything to her…if you break her heart…’ It’s sweet. I like it.”

She went on to adorably gush about her husband-to-be. “He’s lovely. He’s just the funniest. You wouldn’t expect he’s about to turn 30 this year. He’s the most fun, energetic, positive person I’ve ever seen. I’m pessimistic, so we balance each other out.” And while she admits that their wedding will be low-key, she wouldn’t directly reveal if the nupitals will take place this year.
