Sophie Turner, the accomplished actress known for her role as Sansa Stark in \u201cGame of Thrones,\u201d once admitted to harboring a significant crush on the late Matthew Perry. Perry, best known for his iconic portrayal of Chandler Bing in the \u201990s hit sitcom \u201cFriends,\u201d was an acclaimed figure in television. Besides \u201cFriends,\u201d he showcased his acting prowess in shows like \u201cThe West Wing\u201d and \u201cAlly McBeal,\u201d and featured in films like \u201cFools Rush In,\u201d \u201cThe Whole Ten Yards,\u201d and \u201c17 Again.\u201d Turner, like Perry, was celebrated for her leading roles, particularly her portrayal of Sansa Stark.<\/p>\n
In a candid moment on Twitter\u2019s \u201c#BehindTheTweets\u201d series in 2019, Turner recounted an amusing encounter with Perry in London in 2016. She shared a tweet from that time, where she mentioned seeing Perry rehearsing a play near her home. Turner confessed that she had hoped her tweet would catch Perry\u2019s attention and maybe lead to him asking her out on a date, although the attempt didn\u2019t quite go as planned.<\/p>\n
Despite this, it was in that same year that Turner crossed paths with Joe Jonas, whom she later married in a surprise Vegas ceremony after the 2019 Billboard Music Awards. The couple announced their separation after four years of marriage and the birth of their daughters, Willa and Delphine.<\/p>\n
Following Matthew Perry\u2019s untimely passing in 2023, tributes from fans and fellow celebrities flooded social media. Viola Davis, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Selma Blair were among those who expressed their sorrow and shared heartfelt messages commemorating the actor\u2019s impact on their lives. Perry, in a podcast appearance in 2022, expressed a desire to be remembered not just for his acting career, but also for his compassion and dedication to helping others. His legacy continues to resonate deeply within the entertainment industry and beyond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
