While Emilia Clarke has come out strong and proud of ‘that’ nude scene from Game of Thrones episode 4 last week, she has said she regretted making her parents watch it.

In case you missed it (which to be honest is very unlikely), her character Daenerys Targaryen AKA Mother of Dragons proved she actually didn’t need her dragons to show she’s a sassy, strong Khaleesi queen.
She burning down an entire building while the Dothraki leaders were inside – and she walked out of the fire unscathed, naked and powerful. (And if you want to watch it again, it’s at the bottom of this story!)
It was a pivotal moment in the series so far, and it was reminiscent of an earlier scene in season three where she stripped off and walked out of a fire unharmed – but carrying her three baby dragons.
All hail the Khaleesi queen
While no doubt everyone has watched the season 6 jaw-dropping scene, Emilia Clarke opened up on Live with Kelly about the awkwardness of making her parents watch it.
“So my parents were like, ‘We’re watching the show, but darling you’re not doing much this season,” she said.
“They’re like, ‘You know, you’re kind of stark’, and I was like, ‘Watch this one’, and I was like, ‘Are you guys watching the show tonight?’ and they’re like, ‘Yeah, maybe we might just get it on HBO Go or something, and I’m like, ‘No,no, no, watch tonight, watch that one’. And they were trying to get the spoilers out of me and it didn’t work.”
“But I ended up sitting them down and being like, ‘Let’s watch it’, and instantly regretting it. My dad’s like, ‘Again!’”

But despite being slightly uncomfortable about her parents seeing it, Emilia has no regrets about the scene.
She told Entertainment Weekly: “This is all me, all proud, all strong. That ain’t no body double!
“Taking off my clothes is not the easiest thing, but with the magic of the effects, I don’t have to do a season one and go on a cliff and do it.”
“I’m in control of it,” she added.
