Game of Thrones: Sophie Turner in hysterics as she throws her vape out of Instagram live shot

Sophie Turner burst into laughter as she threw her vape out of her lap after realising it was in her live-stream.

The Game of Thrones actress answered some fan questions in an Instagram live video as she had her hair done.

But the 23-year-old quickly realised what was sitting on her lap and threw it out of shot.

Turner was in hysterics at her swift action, unable to continue chatting to fans momentarily as the room erupted with laughter.

Her reaction wasn’t quite fast enough and was picked up by eagle-eyed fans who circulated the clip on social media. ​

The actress has been open about smoking in the past, and previously talked about smoking weed with her co-star Maisie Williams.

“We’re kind of like loners on Game of Thrones, just because the past few seasons Maisie and I have sleepovers every night when we’re shooting,” she told Vulture last year.

“We just used to sit there and eat and watch stupid videos and smoke weed. I don’t know if my publicist will kill me for saying this. We’d get high and then we’d sit in the bath together and we’d rub makeup brushes on our faces.”

Turner, who played Sansa Stark, often keeps her fans amused with a live-streaming session. During the final season of Game of Thrones, she filmed her reactions to several key scenes including Arya Stark – Williams’ character – losing her virginity.

Earlier this week, Turner defended the HBO show from fan criticism after a petition was launched to “remake the final season with competent writers”.

“All of these petitions and things like that — I think it’s disrespectful to the crew, and the writers, and the filmmakers who have worked tirelessly over 10 years, and for 11 months shooting the last season,” Turner told the New York Times.

“So many people worked so, so hard on it, and for people to just rubbish it because it’s not what they want to see is just disrespectful.”
