The Game of Thrones actress appeared in a special feature on CBS Sunday Morning to discuss her character, Daenerys Targaryen as well as how she nearly died during the filming of the popular HBO series.

In her Sunday interview - during which she shared photos from her time in the hospital - the 32-year-old elaborated on her fears revealing that doctors told her a part of her brain died after her second aneurysm.
"So, with the second one there was a bit of my brain that actually died. If a part of your brain doesn't get blood to it for a minute, it will just no longer work… I had that."
Emilia adds that for a very long time she thought the part of her brain that stopped working was the part that enabled her to act.
