Sharing a still from the character's final moment, Sophie wrote: ‘To Alfie and to Theon…. “You’re a good man”’.

Some fans who have yet to see the episode were not pleased with Sophie's post.

One user wrote: 'Thanks for the spoilers. Couldn't watch it last night cause I went to bed like a normal human being (3am it released here). Could you just not spoil anything for like 3 days atleast?'

Another said: 'Really Sophie, spoilers...no. People from all over the world watch the show, so not everyone can see it at the same time [that] you do.'

Another wrote: 'This is not fair Sophie. Cmon! Now I know something about Theon and I [haven't] seen the episode yet.'

However other viewers defended the actress and said there was nothing wrong with her post.

'No one is allowed to discuss anything until we know every person has seen it? The biggest episode of one of the biggest shows in history and no one can discuss it?'
