If you’re a Game of Thrones fan, you might have had mixed emotions about the series finale this past Sunday. But one thing that everyone can agree on, is that Robin Arryn, aka breast milk boy, grew up well.
Arryn originally appeared in Game of Thrones during the fourth, fifth, and sixth season, but then disappeared behind the scenes. Then during the finale episode, the character reappeared to shock many fans.
The young boy had become a prince charming and many fans couldn’t get over it. We haven’t seen a glow up like this since Neville Longbottom in Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows Part 2.
And now, the 18-year-old actor, Lino Facioli, has shared his thoughts on all the attention he’s getting.
TMZ got a hold of a video where the young adult, whose Instagram following went from 5k to 54K overnight, talks about his newfound fame.
“I still can’t really get my head around what’s happening. It feels surreal,” he said to TMZ.
The actor also spoke to the Daily Beast about the situation.
But outside of all the jokes about mother’s milk, Facioli opened up about what it was like to actually film that scene from years ago.
And it seems that role may have changed Facioli’s life forever, especially post-GOT Finale. Here’s hoping the actor can turn this moment into the start of a bigger career. We’re wishing him the best of luck.
