GAME OF Thrones’ Kit Harington and Rose Leslie have become first-time parents after welcoming a baby boy, it has been announced.
Their rep confirmed the news today, with both stars said to be “very, very happy”.
Kit and Rose have welcomed their first child together
The rep did not reveal the baby’s name, or when he was born – with E! News reporting that the new parents had been seen in London with their bundle of joy earlier today.
The couple, who met when they starred as lovers in fantasy series Game Of Thrones, are fiercely private and have largely avoided the spotlight since announcing Rose’s pregnancy in September.
Rose debuted her growing bump in Make magazine at the time as she announced her and her husband’s exciting news.
The beauty had also revealed that she and Kit moved back home to England from the US so that they can raise their child close to their family and friends.
Rose told the publication: “What a glorious thing to be able to run to the countryside and recoup.
“It’s a great privilege to be surrounded by greenery, birdsong and hedgerows, and our delightful neighbours. It’s so peaceful.”
Rose went on to add that she calls the Tudor manor house in East Anglia “the house that Jon Snow built” – referencing Kit’s famous Game of Thrones character.
Kit and Rose fell in love after playing short-lived on-screen couple Jon Snow and Ygritte on the fantasy series.
The couple, both 33, are fiercely private
After meeting on set in 2012, the pair got engaged in September 2017 before tying the knot the following year.
Their wedding was at Rose’s 12 Century family castle in Scotland, with guests including their Game of Thrones’ co-stars such as Emilia Clarke, Peter Dinklage, and Sophie Turner.
While Rose only appeared in two seasons of Game of Thrones, Kit was one of the series’ most central characters.

Kit shot to fame as Jon Snow in Game Of Thrones
He appeared in every season – with the show’s finale airing in 2019 to a mixed reaction from fans.
It was previously revealed that Kit checked into a rehab facility a few weeks before the final was shown, stressing that the ending of Thrones had “really hit him hard”.
He entered the luxury Connecticut health retreat Privé-Swiss, where he has been seeking treatment for stress and alcohol, according to Page Six.
