Myrcella Baratheon

Myrcella Baratheon, the innocent offspring of a horrid brother and devious parents, emerges as a character of interest for her stark contrast within the tumultuous world of Westeros. Actresses Aimee Richardson (seasons 1-2) and Nell Tiger Free (seasons 5-6) portrayed her with exceptional grace, capturing the essence of her sweet and innocent nature.

Interestingly, the show creators consciously decided to age Myrcella’s character, a move intended to align her with the ages of other children in the series. In the books, she departs for Dorne at the tender age of 11, while her intelligence becomes increasingly evident as the narrative unfolds. Notably, her fate diverges significantly from her show counterpart, adding complexity to her character’s arc within the literary context.
