Kit Harington Visits Psychiatrist to See Himself After GOT S8 Shock

GOT is merciless even to its characters. Setting its time in Medieval, parallel world era, Game Of Thrones (GOT) has reached the number of 8 seasons for its current run. The novel adapted series was known to be merciless to kill the characters that its audience adore.

And this time, even Kit Harington, starring Jon Snow in the series, was overcome by sorrow after knowing the end of Game of Thrones S8. So much, that he could not contain himself from tears.

In a documentary by HBO, “The Last Watch” that tells about the Behind-the-Scene (BTS) of GOT, all the stars gathered together to hear the reading and the ending of GOT. Of course, one of them was Kit Harington. You might know Jon Snow as the nephew and shockingly lover of Daenerys Targaryen. Kit was almost certain that the love would last forever.

The reaction was both priceless and tear-jerking. Spread to the world in form of video on Twitter, when the ending of GOT S8 was revealed, Harington was stupefied by the plot that forces him to kill his dragon-controlling lover/aunt.

Kit Harington then exchanged glances with Emilia Clarke, the actress that plays Daenerys, before eventually broke down to emotional feeling and tears. The husband of Rose Leslie, who plays Ygritte, was shown putting his hand over his head in sorrow, and trying to hide his misty eyes. On the other side, Emilia Clarke could not help but laugh and shod her tears a bit from her eyes.

After the final cut for the GOT S8, Kit Harington was seen to visit a “wellness” center in Connecticut, regarding his mental issue. His agent said that after the shooting days were over, Harington needed to take care of his mental pressure, exhaustion, and alcoholic behavior. The further statement considering the issue is not explained any further. It has been almost 1 month since Harington attended the center.

It was usual for the actors and actresses of GOT to see themselves killed, and they might have been preparing for it, should the day finally come. However, when the day comes, they are not ready and they were overcome by the feelings. Hence, Kit Harington.
