Sophie Turner, who recently tied the knot with Joe Jonas for the second time, came out in support of American soccer player Alex Morgan who faced backlash for sipping tea as part of her goal celebration during Tuesday's match against England.

"Unfortunately the UK Women's football team lost at the World Cup and of course I'm incredibly sad and incredibly proud of that team. But I am so honoured that we lost to such an incredible team, the US women's football team," the Game of Thrones star said in a video posted on her Instagram story.
