In an interview with Elle, Williams revealed that they like to remember the day that ultimately brought them together. And they got it inked onto their arms to remember forever. Williams said, “We always said that we wanted them so we got the date 07.08.09 on our arms because that’s the date that both of us found out we’d got our roles in Game Of Thrones”.

Alongside their matching ink, Williams and Turner revealed that they have a nickname for their friendship. The name suggests the fun vibe of their dynamic and is called ‘Mophie’. It all started when Sophie Turner appeared on Nick Grimshaw’s show on BBC and asked her to reveal cringeworthy and embarrassing secrets about her BFF.
Williams explained that the first time she saw the name ‘Mophie’, it was about a brand of the phone case. Initially, she was skeptical about the brand name but eventually, she did like it as a way, to sum up her relationship with her best pal. The fans were delighted by this name and since then Mophie has been synonymous with them.
Beyond their work on “Game of Thrones,” Williams and Turner have continued to support each other’s endeavors. They’ve attended premieres, events, and parties together, showcasing their enduring friendship even after the conclusion of the show. As fans, we can only hope and pray for their return to celluloid and witness their amazing chemistry once again.
