The 35-year-old actress hinted at her hospital stay as she posted on Thursday, September 15 a picture of her hospital undergarment, reported Aceshowbiz.
It appears that her injury isn't too serious as she still managed to find good humor out of the situation.
It was reported earlier this month that Whelan and Alfie Allen had been filming scenes in which their characters Yara and Theon are "engaging in battle at sea," possibly against their uncle Euron.
It's also said that Euron would team up with Queen Cersei and he will capture either Theon or Yara. Euron would reportedly kill at least one of the Sand Snakes.
