Emilia Clarke needs no introduction. The actress rose to international fame thanks to her role as Daenerys Targaryen in 'Game of Thrones'. Recently, her millions of fans were filled with outrage after a CEO of an Australian television company Foxtel, Patrick Delany called Emilia a 'short, dumpy girl'. However, the network has issued an apology if ''his remarks were misunderstood.'' 
 
Delany made the controversial remark while he addressed the premiere event of HBO's most-anticipated sequel show 'House of Dragon'. 
 
During the Sydney premiere, Delany was talking about the massive following 'Game of Thrones' had, when he started talking about Emilia's lead character Daenerys and made fun of her&nbsp;iconic scenes from the show when she steps into the burning fire.&nbsp; 
 
“I was like, ‘What’s this show with the dumpy-looking girl who walks into the flames?’” he said about Emilia's character, as per Crikey.&nbsp; 
 
However, as per the reports, everyone was left shocked. 
 
“It felt like he was expecting us to laugh along but people in the room were obviously shocked by it,” one said.&nbsp; 
 
“There was a bit of a gasp,” another said. 
 
Later after the outrage, Foxtel issued an apology on behalf of its CEO, who has been one of the networks' heads since 2018 and clarified his message.&nbsp; 
 
Further, they added on behalf of his comment, that for him the fantasy series was a very different thing: ''The aim was to convey that for him, Games of Thrones was something very different for television in 2011 and that Emilia Clarke went from relatively unknown to one of the most recognised and most-loved actors in television and film,' a spokesperson said on Wednesday.&nbsp; 
 
''On behalf of Mr Delany, the Foxtel Group apologises if his remarks were misunderstood and caused any offence.'' 
 
Emilia is not part of the forthcoming series as the show will tell the origin story of her house&nbsp;Targaryen. She has also not reacted to Delany's shocking comment.&nbsp; 
 
The HBO show 'Game of Thrones'&nbsp;is one of the most popular dramas of all time and is based on George R.R. Martin’s fictional book series.

Foxtel CEO calls Emilia Clarke 'short, dumpy girl' at House of the Dragon premiere, network issues apology

This is possibly the first time that Emilia Clarke, actress who played Daenerys aka Mother of Dragons in HBO’s ‘Game of Thrones’ is opening up about how she felt for the show’s ending.&nbsp;

While the finale of the hit show was heavily criticised, Emilia and other actors stood by the writers and applauded the show. This is the first time that she said she felt “disappointed” by the ending.&nbsp;

In an interview to The Sunday Times, Emilia Clarke said, “I knew how I felt [about the ending] when I first read it, and I tried, at every turn, not to consider too much what other people might say. But I did always consider what the fans might think — because we did it for them, and they were the ones who made us successful, so it’s just polite, isn’t it?” and continued later, saying, “It was all about the set pieces. I think the sensational nature of the show was, possibly, given a huge amount of airtime because that’s what makes sense.”

Speaking about her character’s arc, Emilia said, “Yeah, I felt for her. I really felt for her. And yeah, was I annoyed that Jon Snow didn’t have to deal with something? He got away with murder — literally.” Towards the end of the show, Daenerys became a villainous character from a timid, pretty looking girl who wanted to sit on her father’s throne.&nbsp;

Earlier, on the show and her love for the character, Emilia said, &nbsp;“I feel very taken care of as a character in that sense. It’s a very beautiful and touching ending. Hopefully, what you’ll see in that last moment as she’s dying is: There’s the vulnerability — there’s the little girl you met in season one. See? She’s right there. And now, she’s not there anymore… But having said all of the things I’ve just said, I stand by Daenerys. I stand by her! I can’t not.”

‘Game of Thrones’ ran for eight seasons with its popularity touching the sky.
