Sophie Turner's accidental flirtation took a wrong turn.
During the Thursday, August 14, episode of Late Night With Seth Meyers, the Game of Thrones star, 29, recounted a "crazy evening" where she caused a couple to break off their engagement.
Turner's night "went really south really quick" when a childhood friend asked for her help.
Sophie Turner recalled an awkward moment when she caused a couple's breakup.
The pal saw an actor she "loved" and begged Turner to "say hi" on her behalf. However, Turner was shy and gave a simple wave from afar.
"That was it," the TV star emphasized. "Later on, I see this girl looking at me, and she’s a famous actress. And I go, 'I have to go and tell her how much she means to me.'"
Turner "dance[d] on over" to the mystery actress, who quipped, "Can you stop f------- flirting with my fiancé?" Turns out, the man she had innocently waved to was her future husband.
Sophie Turner did not like kissing Kit Harrington.
"I have no idea who this man is," the Dark Phoenix star insisted. "Turns out, they broke their engagement off that night because of my [wave]. I didn’t realize I held this power."
She did not reveal the names of either person on air because she didn't want to get "in trouble."
