‘Fans think I am willy a eunuch’

STAR SAYS HE’S ALL MAN

GAME Of Thrones star Jacob Anderson says fans think he’s had his manhood chopped off in real life.

The actor, who plays the castrated warrior Grey Worm, inset, said viewers often think he’s really been castrated.

Jacob, 26, has been a huge hit playing the leader of the Unsullied in the HBO drama. He is also an up-and-coming singer, going by the stage name of Raleigh Ritchie.

But he told how viewers often struggle to tell fact from fiction.

He said: “To me my careers are completely separate but for some Game Of Thrones fans it’s too much for them to understand.

“In fact, a lot of people don’t like it.

“Some fans just don’t understand that Grey Worm isn’t a real person.

“People actually ask me if I have genitals in real life. They really think I’ve been castrated. They also ask if the dragons are real. Sometimes JAMES INGHAM people are taking the piss but others really can’t understand it is not real life. “It’s a bit weird and alarming actually. I like to keep myself to myself so it is a bit freaky when you’re stuck on a tube and someone is just staring at you or trying to take a picture of you.” The seventh series of the awardwinning drama is currently being filmed. Jacob revealed he has already finished shooting his scenes, which could suggest his character has been killed off. But the Adulthood star refused to comment due to strict plot contracts. He said: “Confidentiality contracts mean I’m not allowed to say anything, and to be honest I wouldn’t dare.” He added: “It is the best show to work on though. “It’s like going on a massive holiday camp for six weeks. “I get to mess about with my friends and film the best show on TV at the same time.” Jacob’s new EP Mind The Gap has just been released under the name Raleigh Ritchie.
