Anyone in the market for a Princess?

Former Game of Thrones actress, Aimee Richardson, who played Myrcella Baratheon, has been replaced for season 5 of the hit HBO show by actress Nell Tiger Free.

But Richardson dealt with the blow the best way possible -- using a little social media humor.

(We would've set our dragons on HBO, but this works too.)

Fans of the series will remember Myrcella as the second child of Cersei (and Jamie) Lannister, who was shipped off to Dorne to be betrothed to Trystane Martell. While Myrcella's character has a large role in the upcoming fifth season of GoT, she will be played by Nell Tiger Free.

Game of Thrones showrunners also sparked controversy when they allegedly restructured the fifth season by writing out Princess Arianne Martell. Richardson joked about that matter, as well, on Twitter.

If any potential Ariennes want to come and sit on the street you can email me at [email protected]— Aimee Richardson (@Aimee_P_R) July 28, 2014

It's probably for the best, Aimee. We all know what happens to Baratheon/Lannister kids in Westeros ...
