"When you're in your early 20s, life is so frivolous. At that point, I really didn't know if I wanted to be a mother."

At just 28 years old, Sophie Turner has experienced a lot of life. She's starred in one of the biggest TV shows of all time, gotten married, welcomed two children, and most recently, navigated a very public divorce.

Shortly after Sophie's 24th birthday in February 2020, reports began swirling that she was expecting her first child. And now, in a brand new interview with British Vogue, the Game of Thrones star has opened up about the surprise discovery that she was pregnant while on a retreat in Bali.

Sophie said that because she was "so young" then, she took a week to consider her options — and whether she was ready to become a mother.

Their first daughter, Willa, was born in July 2020, and two years later, Joe and Sophie welcomed a second baby girl, Delphine. Notably, Sophie said that, unlike her first pregnancy, they'd planned to give Willa a sibling close in age so they could grow up together.

While talking to Vogue, Sophie admitted that their age difference was initially a concern when she and Joe first started dating in 2016, when she was 20 and he'd just turned 27.

Now, seven months since Joe filed for divorce, Sophie said she's enjoying the aspects of single life she missed out on in her early 20s.
