Melisandre takes luxurious bubble baths IRL because OF COURSE she does

On Game of Thrones, Carice van Houten plays Melisandre. AKA the Red Woman:

AKA Stannis’ BFF:

AKA the HBIC who brought Jon Snow back from the dead:

AKA your Nana who takes her wig off when she’s drunk:

In real life, Carice is an amazing actress and singer and just all around amazing lady. She’s also TK’s (aka SER DAVOS) BFFs in real life, which is very important and perfect. She’s also a woman who loves magical luxury as much as her onscreen alter ego (although, WHY is the necklace off and Melisandre not old in this Game of Thrones bath? WHY?).

But anyway. Once you finish reeling from the possible inconsistency revealed by Melisandre’s onscreen bath, take a second to behold this Instagram Carice just posted of herself enjoying the most amazing and bubbly of bubble baths, IRL:

So, yes, while this does drudge up some weird Game of Thrones feelings of uneasiness and confusion, we still have to say Carice does bath time even better in her real life than on the show. Continue to win at life forever, please, Carice.
