Early Life
Sophie Turner was born Sophie Belinda Turner on February 21, 1996, in Northampton, England. She grew up in Chesterton, Warwickshire, with mother Sally (a former nursery school teacher), father Andrew (a pallet distribution company employee), and older brothers James and Will. Sophie was a twin, but sadly her twin died before birth. Turner said of the tragedy, "My mum had a miscarriage – my twin died and I lived. That definitely affected me in terms of I always felt as though… something was missing. I have two older brothers who are close in age and I always felt as though I needed someone or should have had someone there. I guess there's a sense of loss there that I have used to conjure emotions onscreen." Sophie attended Warwick Prep School and The King's High School for Girls, and after joining the cast of "Game of Thrones," she had a tutor on the set until she was 16. Turner became a member of the Playbox Theatre Company at just 3 years old.

My metabolism was like slowing down massively, and I was gaining weight. And then there was the social media scrutiny and everything, and that was when it kind of hit me." Sophie revealed that she was taking medication and undergoing therapy at CAST Centers (which is described as "the nation's top mental health and addiction treatment center"), and at the time of the interview, she was taking a break from acting to "focus on [her] mental health."
