SPOILER ALERT: This interview contains spoilers through Episode 5 of ‘House of the Dragon,’ which aired on HBO on Sept. 18 and is streaming on HBO Max. Emily Carey isn’t here for any A…

isn’t here for any Alicent Hightower slander. The 19-year-old “House of the Dragon” star knows her character may not immediately win hearts — the idea of your best friend marrying your father is a tough pill to swallow, after all.

Fans have taken note of the powerful bond between Rhaenyra and Alicent, stirring up online discussion that they could be more than just friends. But in Carey’s final episode as Alicent, the royal reckons with a devastating deceit from her once-close friend Rhaenyra — one that saw her father stripped of his title.

After uncovering the truth, Alicent makes a grand entrance during Rhaenyra and Laenor Velaryon’s wedding feast. When Carey first read the script, she assumed the dramatic moment wasn’t meant for her.
