Last Sunday night, Game of Thrones ended its eight-season run with a controversial series finale that had fans buzzing all week long.

On Monday, Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, stepped out for the press day at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show wearing her hair in a style that many onlookers noted was reminiscent of the hairstyles worn by the women of Westeros and Essos in the HBO hit.

Kate wore her hair in a half-up, half-down braided style when she arrived Monday afternoon to give her grandmother-in-law, Queen Elizabeth II, a tour of her "Back to Nature" garden at the event. Kate wore a stunning, long, floral printed Erdem dress for the occasion, but even that couldn't distract eagle-eyed fans from her Dany/Sansa-esque hairstyle.

Royal reporter Emily Andrews captured pictures of the back of Kate's hair and posted them to Twitter. Take a look below:
