Are the ‘GoT’ stars engaged?
Metro reported that Kit Harington is already engaged to Rose Leslie. Reports have it that the “Game of Thrones” co-stars happily shared the news with their close family members and friends.
The news came almost eight months since the couple decided to move in together.
"They have yet to set a date, but told friends and family last week that they are engaged,” an unidentified insider told The Sun. “After moving in together in January, he felt it was the right time to take the next step,” the same source went on. The tipster added that Kit had been planning to propose to Leslie for months, but he allegedly wanted to get a house first before officially exchanging their wedding vows.
Kit Harington and Rose Leslie were first spotted together in August 2012. The two HBO artists were seen having a dinner date in a London restaurant at the time. It was also the first time that the pair was seen holding hands in public.
However, an unnamed source revealed to The Stir that the two broke up a year after they were first publicly seen together. "Rose has a new boyfriend who is not in the public eye,” the insider claimed. It was in April 2016 when Kit Harington and Leslie Rose finally went public with their relationship at the 2016 Olivier Awards red carpet.
The couple confirmed that they were ready to move in together in May 2017.
