Maisie Williams has responded to *that* Game of Thrones sex scene between her character Ayra Stark and Gendry, which made people see her in a whole new light.
While some viewers were cheering Ayra on as she got down and dirty with Gendry, played by Joe Dempsie, some took to social media saying they felt "uncomfortable" watching the scene, likening Maisie to a "little sister".
But if you felt a bit awkward watching the sex scenes yourself, just imagine what it must have felt like for Maisie watching the second episode of Game of Thrones with her family.
On Tuesday evening, the 22-year-old tweeted: "If u feel uncomfortable, just know that my mother and my stepdad and my 2 sisters and my 4 brothers have all probably watched this too ahahakillmeehehe [sic]."
