Lena Headey 10 Fast Facts, Bio, Wiki
Headey was vegetarian, and stated in a 2011 interview that she occasionally follows a vegan diet. She has a number of tattoos, including a large floral design on her back and a Pema Chödrön quote on her ribs.
She told Esquire that she finds the process of getting tattoos “calming”. Her tattoos usually have to be covered by makeup when she is acting, although she has stated that “you can usually get away with it by keeping your clothes on”.
Headey married musician Peter Loughran in May 2007. Their son, Wylie Loughran, was born on 31 March 2010. She has spoken about suffering from postnatal depression following his birth.
Headey and Loughran separated in 2011, and she filed for divorce in July 2012, which was finalised in December 2013.
On 10 July 2015, Headey gave birth to a daughter named Teddy with filmmaker Dan Cadan, a childhood friend who had worked with her on his short film The Devil’s Wedding. They had separated by June 2019.
In October 2022, Headey married American actor Marc Menchaca, whom she had been dating since 2020.
Headey has been close friends with fellow actress Piper Perabo since they starred together in the 2005 films The Cave and Imagine Me & You.
She is also good friends with her Game of Thrones co-star Peter Dinklage, who first suggested her to Game of Thrones producers.
Lena Headey is an English actress, who gained worldwide recognition after portraying a ruthless and power-hungry queen Cersei Lannister in a cult fantasy drama television series «Game of Thrones».
Lena Headey’s family comes from Yorkshire. Lena, however, was born in 1973 in Bermuda, where her father, a police officer, was stationed at that time. The family lived on the archipelago for five years, before moving back to Yorkshire.
Lena was the most ordinary child and never truly displayed her artistic potential in any way: she would never appear in school plays or join drama classes, however, she was very fond of fashion and styling and wanted to pursue the career of a personal stylist or a hairdresser.
The fate, apparently, had different plans in store for this young British beauty: in 1991, when Lena was 17 years old, she was noticed by a casting-manager, who persuaded her to audition for a new Stephen Gyllenhaal’s project «Waterland».
She was soon cast and made her debut screen appearance alongside such acknowledged actors as Jeremy Irons and Ethan Hawke. Despite never having a formal acting education, Lena was literally showered with casting invitations.
She appeared in 12 films in the following five years, the most well-known of which is a drama «The Remains of the Day» (1993), starring Anthony Hopkins and a miniseries «Merlin» (1998), where Lena worked alongside Helena Bonham Carter and Sam Neill.
