British actress Emilia Clarke, best known for her role of Daenerys Targaryen in all eight seasons of Game of Thrones, has been awarded an MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire) gong in the New Year’s Honors List,
Clarke will attend a British royal palace to receive the award, alongside her mother Jenny, after the pair set up a charity together supporting people with brain injuries.

“Then when I had my second brain haemorrhage, I was like, I’ve got to do something big. Looking at the fact that I’ve survived two of these with no repercussions – I’m here for a reason, let me do something about it.
“That was when we started circling around the idea of creating a charity.”
