Actors are usually grateful to the show or movie that gave them their big break due to the fact that...it gave them their big break.

 

Not Kit Harington though. 

 

The 31-year-old spoke about how his breakout role in Game of Thrones as Jon Snow has changed his life- and it's not for the reason that you would think. 

 

The HBO show took home the gong for  Best Drama Series at the Emmy's on Monday night.

 

Kit gushed about the fact that the best thing to come out of GoT is meeting his wife, Rose Leslie. 

 

Awwww.

 

 

He explained that getting to know Rose set of the fantasy series has not only changed his life but also shaped his family in the future. 

 

He said, ''I met my wife in this show, so in that way, it gave me my future family, and my life from here on in.''

 

''It’s been the most amazing thing, so it’s changed it completely, obviously.''

 

The pair tied the knot in a Scottish ceremony in June after meeting four years ago.

 

 

The smash-hit show's eighth and final seasons are yet to grace our screens, something which writer David Benioff acknowledged when he said it's taking a long time. 

 

He said at the Emmys, ''it's the biggest thing we’ve ever done. The last season is far beyond what we’ve ever attempted before - I hope it will be worth it.''

 

We can't wait for it - but in the meantime Kit's comments have brightened up our day - Rose is a lucky lady.
