In recent news, the Sherlock star, Benedict Cumberbatch, recently became engaged to theater director, Sophie Hunter. However, with the excitement following the news, fans managed to mix up the names and started congratulating our own Sansa Stark, Sophie Turner as the bride to be.
Some fans were happy for her while others thought it was weird. One fan even offered her condolences to the eighteen year old actress. Rude, but okay.
But, Sophie Tuner herself got in on the action and set the record straight:
Thanks to everyone who is congratulating me but its another Sophie who is marrying Benedict Cumberbatch. Nice one guys haha

At least she has a good sense of humor! However, I can see why so many people found it odd. Cumberbatch and Tuner are actually a good twenty years apart in age and I know some people say age is just a number but whoah….twenty years?! Anywho, I found it quite comical and Sophie’s tweet made it even better!
What do you guys think? Do you find it odd that so many people got it confused or do you find it humorous like I do?
