Speaking about her friendship with Williams, the Game of Thrones actor said: “Maisie is definitely my protector and I’m hers, too.
“I know if anything happened – especially if it was on Game Of Thrones, which it never, ever would – she’d go crazy and protect me… Maisie is my strong home.”
Williams added: “Whenever I’m like, ‘I need help! This is bigger than anything I can sort out on my own,’ Sophie is my point of call.”
Game of Thrones returns for its eighth and final season in April.
Sophie Turner wanted Sansa Stark to be bisexual
Turner previously said she wants her character Sansa to be bisexual, quipping: “In the Game of Thrones universe, I think she’s going to have to swing the other way – because the men thing isn’t working for her.”
Asked who she would like Sansa to end up with, she replied: “Arya, because I’d like to see that happen. I’d love a love scene between Arya and Sansa.”
Maisie Williams on her sexuality
In an interview in 2016, Maisie Williams said she does not label her sexuality.
She told Nylon: “here is a label for everything now, which is okay, because some people need labels.
“I’ve never sat up and thought about my sexuality for hours. It’s like what Shailene Woodley said: ‘I fall in love with personalities and not people or genders.’
“I have no problem with anyone who would want to be labelled, but I also think that it is no one’s business. Do what you want.”
