Family Guy’s Seth MacFarlane is dating Game of Thrones’ Emilia Clarke: weird?


We’ve heard some occasional rumors about Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane’s lovelife. MacFarlane, 38, previously dated a chick named Alexis Knapp, who had Ryan Phillippe’s baby well after she’d split with Phillippe. Supposedly MacFarlane dated Knapp, just 22 at that time, while she was pregnant. I think Knapp leaked that story after MacFarlane broke up with her and she realized she wasn’t going to get any acknowledgment from him at all. Some of you commented on that story that he’s a well known player, which kind of surprises me. Then this summer we heard that he was casually dating Cameron Diaz, who reportedly wanted things to be more serious than MacFarlane was willing to commit to.

Now MacFarlane is dating Game of Thrones’ Emilia Clarke, who plays Daenerys Targaryen. She’s a talented young British actress of indeterminate age (wiki has her as 24 or 25). These two were seen out at an Emmys party (photos are at this link) and they left together to go to his house. I think I speak for a lot of women when I say he’s not worth it, run away!

It appears Game Of Thrones star Emilia Clarke has found love with Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane.

The couple are pictured here on the eve of the Emmy Awards in Los Angeles on Saturday at the Four Seasons Hotel, where they shared dinner with friends.

According to onlookers, the pair then headed back to Seth’s home.

On Sunday night, 38-year-old MacFarlane escorted Clarke, 25, to the Emmy Awards, where they posed together in an intimate Instagram snap.

They were also seen holding hands and having dinner together at HBO’s Emmys after-party.

A source told People.com: ‘Throughout the party, MacFarlane frequently draped his arm across Clarke‘s shoulder or wrapped it around her waist – and she didn’t seem to mind.’

They then left together shortly after midnight, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

British actress Clarke plays Daenerys Targaryen in the HBO medieval-fantasy series.

Connecticut-born MacFarlane, meanwhile, is best known as the creator of hit American TV show Family Guy, for which he also voices the main characters Peter Griffin, Brian Griffin, and Stewie Griffin.

[From The Daily Mail]

I saw Clarke in one of the “making of” Game of Thrones specials, and I was impressed by how smart and well spoken she came across. Maybe it’s the British accent, but she didn’t seem like she was naive or anything. You don’t have to be stupid to be a douche magnet, and a lot of very smart women have a propensity for dating jerks who treat them like crap. Maybe I’m wrong and Seth is the boyfriend type, but I don’t get that impression from what I’ve heard.

Oh and I should talk about Emilia’s bad mullet Emmy dress, which is Chanel! Go Fug Yourself mentioned that the white fabric was picking up dirt. At least her styling is decent. Doesn’t she look so much different and more striking as a brunette?

Here she is at the BAFTAs LA Tea on 9-22. She looks so pretty here.

    I can’t stand him, his pretentiousness and his bobblehead.

    That one is a prick of the highest order.

    P.S.: During Charlie Sheen’s roast on Comedy Central, he (sporting a ridiculous fake tan) managed to be less funny than Sheen himself.

      Because the humor on his show is seriously woman-hating. (Along with every other kind of hate too.) He loves rape jokes on the show. Having said that I still can see that other stuff he does is funny and he’s cute. But to date? With those issues? No way!

      Any woman that would date him has very low self-esteem.

    Okay, obviously judging by the other comments, people are not going to get this, but he is my one celebrity crush. I do know that he’s not ‘boyfriend material’ but I could really care less. I want him. When I read last night on huff post that he was dating her, I think I almost started crying. I really need some help I think :p

    Ted Casablanca had a blind item about him many moons ago, when he was just gaining fame, about how he couldn’t put on condoms properly. He’s just one of those guys who can’t believe his luck, but had very limited experience beforehand. Unfortunately for the women, those guys turn out to be huge douches.

    I hate to admit it but I kind of like the guy. If you went into it knowing he’s a bit of a douchebag, you could have a lot of fun. He seems like the type that knows how to have a great time.

    He looks douchey and I am guessing they are banging him for his $$ and inside hollywood life ?

    Because his face is meh, his attitude/ personality sucks … if he was working in accounting would he get getting this much action? And such young girls?

    When I was 24 there is no way in hell I wanted to date anyone near 40 — money or not. But thats me. Just because men are older doesn’t mean ALL men can sex you better, some can some can’t.

    He definitely looks too much like Christopher Knight for me. x_x I figured he was probably arrogant after all the success he’s had, & it’s not at all unusual for those guys to become D-bags.

    Say what you want about the guy and his sense of humor, I think we should stop with the “player” hate and respect what he does in his love life. So he’s not into serious relationships. As long as he makes it clear what he wants with his hook-ups and doesn’t end up hurting them, he’s not being a douche. Slut-shaming is not cool, guys.

  27. Darth says:

    Sorry if this sounds somewhat crass, but why SHOULDN’T he date young & attractive girls? They’re of legal age & consent. If his money & power allow him to have those things then more power to him. These girls must be getting something out of it themselves, or why would they do it?
    And there’s no saying that any one of us wouldn’t live the same way if we were in his position. That kind of money & freedom allows a person to basically craft any kind of life for themselves that they can dream up. Wouldn’t it seem like a bit of a waste to be dealt such a lucky hand, if all you did with it was get the wife, kids, and picket fence like everyone else?

    I think he is attractive. He can sing, act, and he IS funny. I know his style of humor isn’t for everyone, but it must work for millions of people considering his crazy success. I think people are just too uptight. He writes to offend, that is his thing.

    I think its gross that he would date someone that young (and that she would date someone that old) but for the most part you don’t get into show business without bringing along some baggage. Just par for the course.

    Aww I kinda hoped she would hook up with Kit because they’d make a hot couple.

    She’s absolutely gorgeous which is good – at least she has something going for her – because she truly can’t act at all. Maisie Williams runs circles around her every single time.

    Seth is smart, talented and funny – success based on talent and imagination, not connections. He’s loyal, generous and passionate about what he believes in (the Democratic platform, for one thing). He’s a workaholic and pretty much the furthest thing from a ‘player’ I can think of. Really. And yes, I do know what I am talking about.

    I sometimes go to Real Time with Bill Maher tapings in L.A., and I happened to hit two in a row where Seth MacFarlane was both a panel guest, as well as there to tape a scene for the Family Guy episode ‘Brian Writes a Bestseller’, where Brian (the dog character) appears on Real Time. Not only was he intelligent and crazy-funny while on the show, but he also took the time to warm up the audience a little before taping started, which he didn’t have to do, and no other guest has done in my many experiences being there.

    Yes, he’s sort of just doing his job in this instance, but I seriously felt he came across as genuine and surprisingly warm and gracious. And yes, I’d hit it.

      Nice to know =) He may be accused of many things,but I also think he is genuine! I don’t get why many people hate his humour…It’s unpolite and sometimes hurtful, but it’s also really smart and through his humour he makes people aware of many shitty stuff that happens in many societies. Also he’s incredibly ironic,so people who don’t get him gotta let his jokes pass through the irony and sarcasm filter first.

        Nobody here is saying they don’t get MacFarlane’s jokes. What is being said here is that they’re just plain unfunny.

        His humor is also annoyingly unoriginal — no, scratch that. It’s downright plagiaristic. He ripped off The Simpsons’s concept, then kept doing that with many of their episodes/jokes (to this day). It’s so bleeding obvious, he (MacFarlane) even jokes about that — because there’s no point in trying to deny it anymore.

        P.S.: College Humor summed up MacFarlane’s shows really well here:

    Love Seth MacFarlane! Super cutie, super funny, super brilliant and successful to boot. However, I doubt he treats women well (entirely based on what he writes and me assuming he kinda wishes he was the girl). Hope it works out. The actress mentioned is fantastic in Game of Thrones, btw.

    She can do better, but let’s be real here. Who you date can turn you from a dud to loved in Hollywood. The point is people will know you. I think a younger man would turn more heads, like if she perhaps became Robert Pattisson’s rebound chick no one would ever forget that. Edward Cullen & The Mother of Dragons. I doubt she’s attracted to him, but who he is doesn’t hurt.
