I remember seeing a story about her on local news a couple months back in regard to her release. It was amazing they had info on her family, and she was going to be reunited with them. When I first heard of her release, I was worried if she could adjust but hearing about her family made me think it would be fine. Sad to hear it never got to happen.

Though his role in the series was small, it was an important one. Kent played a goatherd in the Season 4 finale of the epic fantasy series, 'The Children'. His character appeared before Daenerys to drive home the destruction that her unruly dragons were unleashing across the land. In a brief but emotional scene, he brought the charred body of his dead 3-year-old daughter to the khaleesi's throne to illustrate the havoc her creatures were wreaking on the locals' lives. His meeting with the queen was the impetus for her chaining up two of her dragons so they couldn't hurt anyone else. Apart from his role in 'Game Of Thrones', Kent also starred in the British TV series 'EastEnders' and in the 2012 film 'Snow White and the Huntsman'. His other credits include 'Marshal's Law', the BBC adaptation of 'Les Miserables', 'Bloody Cuts', 'Shameless and Community'. His first significant role was in the 2008 horror movie 'Mirrors'. Most recently, he portrayed a reanimated corpse in the film 'Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves'. Kent experienced several chronic health issues including arthritis, osteoporosis and a rare skin disorder.
