"A brilliant woman who overcame so much suffering and found herself, her voice... and her one and only love," the actress wrote in an Instagram post overnight. "She represented so much for me, personally, that I have no choice but to carry the things she has taught me into my life going forward. Thank you to everyone who made it possible for me to play this part... this life changing part... there are too many to list... @emilia_clarke GIRL! I love you... SO much. I’ve loved playing your BFF for the past 7 years. Thank you for being such a wonderful person in my life and a source of light and laughter. The Bad Ass Boss Lady Warrior Goddess club will live on forever." Emmanuel also gave a shoutout to co-star and on-screen love interest Jacob Anderson, who tweeted a special singing tribute to her.
