Alicent Hightower finally gets it on with Criston Cole in House of the Dragon Season 2 premiere

In the prequel to Game of Thrones, House of the Dragon, romances often go horribly wrong. With the emergence of these long-suppressed passions, the Targaryen dynasty descended into civil war. But other exchanges happened right beneath our noses; one particularly surprising one included dowager Queen Alicent and her guardian, Criston Cole.

Since the beginning of House of the Dragon Season 1, Alicent Hightower has been the epitome of morality. She is the one who made sacrifices for duty and honor. However, as the realm descends into chaos, so does she. The dowager queen grows closer to her protector, Criston Cole, and they end up doing the dance in bed, when they should have been somewhere else. And they choose the worst time, when Blood and Cheese are in the castle.

Fabien Frankel previously hinted at Alicent and Criston’s intimate scene

In an interview during the promotions, Fabien Frankel said that Criston Cole had s*x with Alicent. This is the most current one. He revealed:

“[Criston Cole] is in there with Alicent when that’s happened. I mean, he should have been there standing sentry. Yeah. And he wasn’t. I mean, it’s like one of the first lines that Aegon has to Cole like “and where were you”, you know, “supposed to be protecting my family”. And little does he know, obviously that Cole is, well..”

There was apparently another scene that was cut from the show, but that might have been the second scene that we barely catch a glimpse of.
