For her education, Sophie attended independent Warwick Prep School. When she turned 11, she switched to another independent school, The King’s High School for Girls. Acting didn’t deter Sophie from completing her education she scored 5 A’s and 4 B’s in her GSCE.

It was Sophie’s outstanding portrayal of a scarecrow in an amateur production of The Wizard Of Oz that made her school teacher suggest her to a group of casting directors who were looking to find young actresses to fill roles in what would become Game of Thrones.

After a series of auditions, Sophie scored the role. She had met Maisie Williams (Arya Stark) for the first time at one of the auditions and the two immediately bonded. Their dreams came true when they landed their respective roles. To celebrate, they had ‘07.08.09’ (the date they got the role) tattooed around their elbows.

In the show’s first season, Sophie scored a Screen Guild Award and Scream Awards nominations. Following series of other nominations, Sophie won her first accolade in 2015, an Empire Hero Award. In 2016, she scored a Huading Awards for Best Global Actress and a Glamour Award for Best UK TV Actress.
