The 'Game of Thrones' star said 'our children deserve the right to grow up out of the public eye' after the 'honest mistake.'

Who hasn’t accidentally sent a picture or a text to someone who wasn't the intended the recipient?

It can have more consequences if you’re a celebrity, though. This is something actress Sophie Turner found out recently when she made “an honest mistake.” Instead of sending a video of her daughter with Joe Jonas to a friend, she accidentally posted the video to her Instagram stories, making it publicly visible.


She quickly took it down, and then put up a note in her Instagram stories pleading with anyone to delete any recordings they might have taken of her child.

Turner, who is very private about her family and child, said:

“...sharing this publicly is something against anything I stand for.”
“If I ever were to post anything of our kids, know that it is unquestionably a mistake.”

People commented on Turner’s finger-slip and subsequent post.

There were people who were surprised she would post anything.



Others—after the release of Turner’s statement asking people delete it—pointed out a random internet stranger looking avidly for a video of a young child was in poor taste.


Many people chimed in to agree with Turner.

They respect her wishes to maintain privacy where she can as a celebrity, especially for any of her kids.


Others did question how this mistake happened.


There probably are copies of the video floating around, but hopefully not as many as before Turner’s statement.

When in doubt, triple-check where and to whom you send photos and videos—advice that works for all of us.

Ralph Fiennes Got Absolutely Shredded For His Next Film Role—And Fans Are Impressed

You really have to hand it to method actors: when they commit to a role, it seems like there's nothing they won't do to become the character they're portraying on the screen or stage.

Ralph Fiennes, for example, is no stranger to method acting. Back when he worked on Schindler's List as Amon Goeth, Steven Spielberg commented on his commitment to the part, both studying historical documents and published diary entries and gaining weight for the part.

In a recent interview with the San Francisco Chronicle, director Chris Columbus admitted that Trump’s cameo in Home Alone 2 has turned into something of a “curse"—one he now regrets. Columbus revealed he had considered cutting the scene entirely but ultimately left it in after test audiences responded well to the brief appearance.

Mike Johnson Just Tried To Blame Medicaid Cuts On Video Games—And It Didn't Go Over Well

House Speaker Mike Johnson was called out after he erroneously claimed that Medicaid cuts are happening due to "young men" who play video games "all day" instead of going to work.

Medicaid, the joint federal-state program that provides health coverage to low-income Americans, children, pregnant women, and people with disabilities, has long been in the GOP’s crosshairs. Critics within the party argue it discourages work, particularly among younger adults.
