Sophie Turner is calling out those who don’t wear masks in public amid the ongoing pandemic.

The Game Of Thrones star went on social media with a message about wearing a mask – even in challenging situations.

“If I can wear a mask while I give birth, you can wear a mask at Walmart,” Sophie said in the video posted on her Instagram Story. “And that’s the tea.”

Sophie and hubby Joe Jonas welcomed their baby girl, Willa, on July 22 – Joe’s rep confirmed in a statement to announce the baby’s arrival about a week after the birth.

“Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas are delighted to announce the birth of their baby,” his rep said in a statement to People at the time.

Jophie has since been spotted out and about on a few occasions since their baby’s arrival – always rocking face masks. But aside from paparazzi photos of the couple, fans haven’t been privy to Sophie’s pregnancy journey until recently. She’s started sharing some photos from when she was pregnant on social media – and since they were taken at home, she didn’t have to wear a mask.

But her recent IG Story isn’t the first time that the actress has spoken out about the importance of taking safety measures during the pandemic.

Back in March, she seemingly called out Evangeline Lilly after she revealed that she and her family have not been doing any social distancing amid the growing coronavirus concerns at the time.

Without naming names, Sophie went on IG Stories, saying, “Stay inside, don’t be f–king stupid. Even if you count your ‘freedom’ over your health. I don’t give a f–k about your ‘freedom,’ you could be infecting other people, other vulnerable people around you. So stay inside guys. It’s not cool, and it’s not clever. And that’s the tea.”

Joe was in the frame with her, and appeared to be proudly supporting his wife’s sentiments.

Evangeline has since offered her “sincere and heartfelt” apology on social media for the “insensitive” comments she made at the time, explaining that it wasn’t until a few days after her initial post that social distancing measures were instituted in the place where she lived, but that she’d been following directives from the authorities even before then.
