"FYI...This is the closest you'll ever get to me attempting 'that lift' from Dirty Dancing," the actress said. "Yes, my man is sitting. Yes, there's no lake. And yes, I have no idea I'm NOT being raised above his head."

"(Id like to take a moment to thank alcohol for giving me courage to attempt this. Ever.) @gameofthrones @prideofgypsies #nooneputsdrogointhecorner #imhavingthetimeofmylife #fyi #thankgodwegotthatmanonathrone #mysunandstarsintheireyes," she continued.

Clarke, who portrays Daenerys Targaryen on Game of Thrones, appeared alongside Momoa's Khal Drogo in Season 1 of the HBO series. The pair last reunited in November while spending time together in London.

Game of Thrones will return for an eighth and final season in 2019. Clarke and her co-star Kit Harington recently commented on performing their love scenes on the fantasy drama, calling it unnatural.
