Nowadays, the rising popularity of veganism serves as an inspiration for many people to switch to a plant-based diet. Known for her breakthrough performance asGame of Thrones’ Lyanna Mormont (2016–2019), the non-binary English actor is one such prominent figure. Ramsey, who prefers they/them pronouns, is adamantly vegan. Raised as a pescatarian, they also claim to have“no idea what a chicken nugget tastes like”.

However, the actor, the voice behind Molly inChicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget, ironically stated that one of the reasons they signed on for a stop-motion animated comedy flick was because they had
“No idea what a chicken nugget tastes like.”
They toldThe Independent:
“These messages are done in a way that doesn’t feel aggressive, or obvious. It’s one of the reasons why little me really loved the first film.”
This fascinating remark not only emphasizes her dedication to veganism but also piques interest in the reasons behind her decision to follow this lifestyle.Well, Ramsey has expressed her admiration onInstagramfor Greta Thunberg, an environmentalist and vegan.
Even though Ramsey turned 20 last year, they are still frequently paired as young teens. TakeThe Last of Us, for example, or the teenage protagonist of the comedyCatherine Called Birdy, which is set in medieval England.

At the age of 18, Ramsey discovered they were neurodivergent. Even though this has helped them in their acting career, they believe that it has made life more challenging. They further explained:
“One of my things is I’m very perceptive, sometimes too perceptive. I get paralysed because I just see everything – it takes me four hours to get round Tesco’s.”
Learning lines can be challenging as well. They admitted:
“I learn them in the car on the way.”
Nonetheless, they acknowledge the advantages of their increased cognizance of “micro-expressions and social cues”. They joked that adjusting to living alone has been another challenge.
