The video, which shows Richardson sitting with a tiara on the ground and holding a sign that reads “Princess for Hire,” was posted to Richardson’s Twitter page with the words, “Well this is embarrassing.”

At Comic-Con, "Game of Thrones" announced the actors taking on new parts for the show’s fifth season, and that’s when it came out that Richardson wouldn’t be returning in her role as the princess.

Other announcements included Alexander Siddig as Doran Martell, Toby Sebastian as Trystane Martell, and DeObia Oparei as Areo Hotah.

The 16-year-old Richardson also showed humor with another tweet, which referred to Princess Ariennes, a character in the books but not in the HBO show. Some avid "Thrones" fans have complained about that in the past.



The character of Princess Myrcella made no appearances at all in Season 4, but will reportedly be involved in Season 5.

Richardson’s fame spiked online as everyone responded to her humorous take on losing her role.



She kept her humor throughout and has continued to joke, making funny remarks about getting famous.
