EARLY LIFE & FAMILY BACKGROUND
Childhood in Nottingham
Bella Ramsey was born Isabella May Ramsey on September 25, 2003, in Nottingham, England. They were raised in nearby Leicestershire in a creative and musical household. Bella’s father, Alex Ramsey, is a businessman and accomplished trumpeter, while their mother is an amateur actress with a deep love for the performing arts.
“My whole family is very musical and creative,” Bella has said, describing a childhood filled with art, music, writing, and football.
Bella has an older sister, and the family maintained a close-knit dynamic despite Bella’s demanding acting schedule. While Bella has chosen to keep specific details about their family private, they’ve spoken warmly about the creative environment in which they were raised.

Discovery of Acting
At just four years old, Bella discovered acting as a hobby when they enrolled in the Loughborough branch of Stagecoach Theatre Arts. What began as an after-school activity quickly became a passion. Bella attended Stagecoach for seven years, performing with local amateur theatre groups and developing their craft.
“I never really set out to be [an actor], and then it sort of happened,” Bella reflected. “I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
Education & Training
Bella initially attended mainstream schools in Leicestershire but found the environment challenging, particularly due to their neurodivergence. At age 12, they transferred to King’s InterHigh, an online school that offered the flexibility to balance education with their burgeoning acting career.
“Mainstream secondary school was not conducive to my happiness,” Bella explained, “especially because of my neurodivergence.”
The online program proved transformative, allowing Bella to pursue both academic excellence and professional acting without compromise.
Television Workshop
At age 10, Bella joined the Television Workshop in Nottingham, a prestigious drama training and casting company that has launched the careers of numerous British actors including Samantha Morton, Vicky McClure, and Jack O’Connell.
The Workshop provided professional training and access to auditions, including the life-changing audition for Game of Thrones. Bella continued attending the Workshop into adulthood and credits it with shaping their entire approach to acting.
“[It] teaches you to be and become. No pretending,” Bella said of the Workshop’s philosophy.
BREAKTHROUGH: GAME OF THRONES (2016-2019)
Landing Lyanna Mormont
At just 11 years old, Bella Ramsey made their professional acting debut in one of the most watched television series in history: HBO’s “Game of Thrones.”
Through the Television Workshop, Bella auditioned for the role of Lady Lyanna Mormont, the fierce young leader of House Mormont from Bear Island. The character was originally written to appear in just one scene in Season 6, Episode 7 (“The Broken Man”).

However, Bella’s performance was so commanding that the show’s creators, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, immediately expanded Lyanna into a recurring role.
Fan Favorite Character
Lyanna Mormont quickly became a breakout character despite minimal screen time. The pint-sized leader delivered some of the show’s most memorable lines with fearless authority, including her legendary declaration: “I don’t plan on knitting by the fire while men fight for me.”
Bella appeared in Game of Thrones across three seasons:
– Season 6 (2016): Episodes “The Broken Man,” “Battle of the Bastards,” and “The Winds of Winter”
– Season 7 (2017): Episodes “Dragonstone” and “The Dragon and the Wolf”
– Season 8 (2019): Episodes “Winterfell” and “The Long Night”
Heroic Death Scene
In the Season 8 episode “The Long Night,” Lyanna Mormont died heroically while killing a giant wight during the Battle of Winterfell. The character’s death became one of the most talked-about moments of the series finale season.
The Hollywood Reporter described Bella as Season 6’s breakout star, and the role earned them a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination as part of the ensemble cast.
Career Impact
“The set felt very natural,” Bella later said, “and immediately like a place where I belonged.”
Game of Thrones gave the 11-year-old actor international recognition and opened doors to opportunities that would have been impossible otherwise. Bella had proven they could hold their own against seasoned actors in one of television’s most prestigious productions.
BUILDING A CAREER (2017-2022)
The Worst Witch (2017-2020)
Following their Game of Thrones success, Bella landed the lead role of Mildred Hubble in CBBC’s “The Worst Witch,” based on the beloved book series by Jill Murphy.
As the clumsy but well-meaning young witch attending Cackle’s Academy, Bella showcased their range beyond the fierce warrior persona of Lyanna Mormont. The series ran for four seasons (2017-2020), and Bella’s performance earned them the BAFTA Children’s Award for Young Performer in 2019.
The show was a critical and commercial success, introducing Bella to younger audiences and demonstrating their versatility as a performer.
Hilda: Voice Acting Breakthrough (2018-2023)
In 2018, Bella began voicing the titular character in Netflix’s animated series “Hilda,” based on the graphic novels by Luke Pearson. As the fearless, blue-haired adventurer exploring the magical wilderness, Bella brought warmth, curiosity, and courage to the role.
The series received widespread critical acclaim and won three Daytime Emmy Awards. Bella’s voice performance earned nominations for Best Voice Performance at the British Animation Awards in both 2020 and 2022.
Bella also contributed musically to the series, writing and performing the song “The Life of Hilda” for Season 2. They reprised the role in the television film “Hilda and the Mountain King” (2021) and continued through the series’ conclusion in 2023.
The role demonstrated Bella’s ability to carry a series through voice work alone—a skill that would prove valuable throughout their career.
Film Roles
Between television commitments, Bella expanded into feature films:
Two for Joy (2018)
Psychological drama where Bella played a supporting role.
Holmes & Watson (2018)
Comedy starring Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly.
Judy (2019)
Biographical drama about Judy Garland starring Renée Zellweger. Bella appeared in a supporting role.
Resistance (2020)
Bella played Elsbeth, an orphan helped by Marcel Marceau (Jesse Eisenberg) during the Holocaust. The biographical drama depicted how Marceau helped Jewish children escape Nazi persecution during World War II.
His Dark Materials (2020)
Bella joined the cast of BBC/HBO’s “His Dark Materials” in Season 2, playing Angelica, a troubled girl in the parallel world of Cittàgazze. The role reunited them with HBO and showed their ability to inhabit complex, morally ambiguous characters.
LEADING LADY: CATHERINE CALLED BIRDY (2022)
First Lead Film Role
In 2022, Bella took on their first leading film role in “Catherine Called Birdy,” directed by Lena Dunham and based on Karen Cushman’s 1994 novel.
Set in medieval England, the film follows 14-year-old Lady Catherine (nicknamed Birdy), a spirited and rebellious noblewoman who schemes to avoid an arranged marriage to a wealthy but repulsive suitor.
Critical Acclaim
While the film received mixed reviews overall, Bella’s performance was universally praised as the highlight. Critics noted their natural charisma, comic timing, and ability to make a medieval character feel thoroughly modern and relatable.
Bella also wrote and performed “Birdy Song” for the film’s soundtrack, adding another creative dimension to their involvement in the project.
The performance earned Bella a nomination for the Critics’ Choice Movie Award for Best Young Performer in 2023.
Proving Leading-Role Capability
“Catherine Called Birdy” proved that Bella could carry a feature film as the lead. The role required them to be in virtually every scene, balancing comedy, drama, and coming-of-age themes with remarkable maturity for a teenage performer.
SUPERSTARDOM: THE LAST OF US (2023-Present)
Landing Ellie
In February 2021, Bella was cast as Ellie Williams in HBO’s adaptation of the critically acclaimed video game “The Last of Us,” created by Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann.
The casting was monumental. Ellie is one of gaming’s most beloved characters, and fans had strong opinions about who should play her. Bella faced immense scrutiny and pressure to honor the character while making her their own.
Set in a post-apocalyptic America ravaged by a fungal infection that turns people into zombie-like creatures, “The Last of Us” follows Joel Miller (Pedro Pascal), a hardened survivor, and Ellie, a 14-year-old girl who may hold the key to saving humanity.
Chemistry with Pedro Pascal
From the first day of filming, Bella and Pedro Pascal developed an extraordinary bond that translated seamlessly to screen.
Pedro described Bella as “his blessing” and said the two were “linked souls.” Their off-screen friendship—which included Pedro playfully calling Bella his “daughter” and Bella referring to Pedro with deep affection—created the authentic emotional core of the series.
“Pedro is one of the most generous, kind, and talented people I’ve ever worked with,” Bella said. “The relationship between Joel and Ellie on screen is very much a reflection of our relationship off screen.”
The chemistry between the two actors became one of the show’s greatest strengths, with critics consistently praising their dynamic as the emotional heart of the series.
Season 1 (2023): Critical Breakthrough
The first season of “The Last of Us” premiered on January 15, 2023, and became an instant cultural phenomenon. The season finale reached a record-breaking 8.2 million viewers on the day of its release.
Bella’s portrayal of Ellie—vulnerable yet fierce, funny yet haunted, childlike yet forced to grow up too fast—earned universal critical acclaim.
Awards and Nominations (Season 1):
– Primetime Emmy Award nomination – Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series (2023)
– Golden Globe nomination – Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series – Drama (2024)
– BAFTA Television Award nomination – Leading Actress (youngest-ever nominee in this category)
– Screen Actors Guild Award nomination
– Critics’ Choice Television Award nomination
– Satellite Award nomination
– Gotham Independent Film Award nomination
At the time of their BAFTA nomination, Bella was the youngest-ever Leading Actress nominee for a British Academy Television Award.
Bella’s first Emmy nomination also made them the first openly non-binary actor to be nominated for a leading role at the Emmy Awards. The nomination was only the second Emmy acting nomination for an openly non-binary person (after Carl Clemons-Hopkins).
Season 2 (2025): Shouldering the Story
The second season of “The Last of Us” premiered in March 2025 and proved even more challenging for Bella. With Pedro Pascal’s role significantly reduced (appearing in only three of seven episodes), Bella had to shoulder the season’s emotional weight largely on their own.
“It was more challenging,” Bella admitted. “It felt like more weight.”
Critics praised Bella’s maturation as a performer, noting how they conveyed Ellie’s development into young adulthood with depth, nuance, and remarkable emotional range.
Season 2 Awards and Nominations:
– Primetime Emmy Award nomination – Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series (2025)
– Golden Globe nomination – Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series – Drama (2026)
–aCritics’ Choice Television Award nomination
Bella’s second Emmy nomination made them the first openly non-binary performer to be nominated for an Emmy more than once in history. They also became the youngest two-time Emmy lead drama actress nominee.
Online Harassment
The success of Season 2 was marred by reports of intense online harassment directed at Bella. Social media users targeted Bella’s appearance, performance, and gender identity, with dedicated Reddit communities emerging solely to criticize and mock them.
Journalists situated this harassment as part of a broader trend of young actors—particularly female-presenting performers—being targeted for their roles, similar to Halle Bailey for “The Little Mermaid” and Rachel Zegler for “Snow White.”
Bella handled the harassment with remarkable grace, eventually deactivating their Instagram and X (Twitter) accounts in 2025 to protect their mental health.
Season 3 and Beyond
“The Last of Us” has been renewed for Season 3, expected to air in 2027. Bella will return as Ellie, though the extent of their role remains to be seen given the events of Season 2.
OTHER NOTABLE WORK
Time (2023)
Bella played Kelsey Morgan in the BBC prison drama “Time,” earning a Royal Television Society Award for their performance. The role demonstrated Bella’s continued growth as a dramatic actor outside of fantasy and sci-fi genres.
Sunny Dancer (2026)
Bella’s first project of 2026 was “Sunny Dancer,” a coming-of-age film in which they play Ivy, a 17-year-old cancer survivor sent to a therapeutic “chemo camp.”
The film had its world premiere at the 76th Berlin International Film Festival. Bella initially had been wary that the concept was “a recipe for disaster” but found the film subverted their expectations.
“[It was] the best weeks of my life so far,” Bella said of the shoot, crediting it with rekindling their enthusiasm for independent cinema.
The film is scheduled for theatrical release in summer 2026.
Maya (2026)
Bella is set to appear as the title character in Channel 4’s drama series “Maya,” filming throughout 2025. The project reunites them with British television after their American successes.
Harmonia (TBA)
Bella will appear as Ella in Guy Nattiv’s psychological thriller “Harmonia,” further expanding their range into the thriller genre.
PERSONAL LIFE & IDENTITY
Gender Identity & Pronouns
Bella publicly identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns. They’ve spoken openly about their fluid relationship with gender.
“I guess my gender has always been very fluid,” Bella explained. “Someone would call me ‘she’ or ‘her’ and I wouldn’t think about it, but I knew that if someone called me ‘he’ it was a bit exciting. I’m very much just a person. Being gendered isn’t something that I particularly like. But in terms of pronouns, I really couldn’t care less.”
Regarding their sexuality, Bella has said: “I’m not 100 per cent straight. I’m a little bit wavy.”
While Bella has found labels helpful in some areas of life, they’ve said that “gender and sexuality-wise, labels do not feel comfy for me in any capacity.”
Gendered Awards Categories
Bella has thoughtfully addressed the complexity of competing in gendered awards categories as a non-binary person.
In an interview with Louis Theroux in May 2025, Bella expressed how they wish there was “an easy way around” honoring people who don’t conform to the gender binary, “but I think that it is really important that we have a female category and a male category.”
“I think it’s so important that that’s preserved, as well,” they said about ensuring women get nominated for awards. “The recognition for women in the industry is preserved.”
While Bella said they are OK with being included in an Actress category, they explained they “have a guttural, ‘That’s not quite right,’ instinct [to it].”
Autism Diagnosis
During the filming of “The Last of Us” Season 1, Bella was diagnosed with autism. They were 18 years old at the time.
“It was freeing,” Bella described the diagnosis, saying it allowed them to navigate the world with more self-acceptance and understanding of their experiences.
Bella believes being neurodivergent has greatly influenced their acting and helps them see the world in unique ways. The diagnosis explained many of their childhood experiences and gave them tools to better understand themselves.
Faith
Bella is a Christian and has spoken openly about how their faith is important to them. They previously ran a YouTube channel called “United Hope” where they shared their beliefs and spiritual journey.
Veganism & Environmental Advocacy
Bella has been vegan for several years and is an outspoken advocate for veganism and environmental protection.
In 2019, Bella was appointed a Greenpeace Oceans Ambassador, promoting awareness of ocean conservation and sustainability. As part of this role, they contributed voice work to “Turtle Journey” (2020), a short animated film produced by Greenpeace and Aardman Animations highlighting the threats faced by marine life.
In 2024, Bella joined other public figures in signing an open letter opposing Shell’s legal action against Greenpeace.
LGBTQ+ Advocacy
Bella has been a vocal supporter of LGBTQ+ rights and transgender inclusion. In response to the April 2025 UK Supreme Court ruling on the definition of woman in the Equality Act 2010, Bella was one of over 400 film and television professionals to sign an open letter pledging “solidarity” with the trans, non-binary, and intersex communities.
The crew of “The Last of Us” supported Bella’s queer identity by making a chest binder available as part of their costume. Bella wore it 90% of the time they filmed, saying it helped them “concentrate” although it “probably isn’t healthy.”
Ambassadorships & Patronages

– Ambassador for Young Minds – Mental health charity for children and young people
– Patron of Bamboozle Theatre Company – Supporting youth theatre

RELATIONSHIP WITH PEDRO PASCAL
“Linked Souls”
The friendship between Bella Ramsey and Pedro Pascal is one of the most heartwarming stories in recent Hollywood history.
From their first meeting on “The Last of Us” set, the two formed an instant bond that transcended the typical co-star relationship. Pedro, who has no biological children, embraced a protective, paternal role toward Bella, while Bella found in Pedro a mentor, friend, and father figure.
“Bella is my blessing,” Pedro has said. “We are linked souls.”
On-Screen and Off-Screen Chemistry
The authentic love between Pedro and Bella shines through in every scene of “The Last of Us.” Their off-screen friendship—filled with inside jokes, mutual admiration, and genuine affection—created the emotional foundation for Joel and Ellie’s relationship.
“The relationship between Joel and Ellie on screen is very much a reflection of our relationship off screen,” Bella noted.
Mutual Support
Pedro has been vocally supportive of Bella, particularly during periods of online harassment. He’s praised their talent, maturity, and resilience repeatedly in interviews.

Beyond The Last of Us
Even outside of filming, Pedro and Bella maintain their close friendship. They’re frequently seen together at industry events, and their social media interactions (before Bella deactivated their accounts) were filled with warmth and humor.
Their relationship represents one of the most genuine and touching friendships in contemporary entertainment.
ACTING STYLE & PHILOSOPHY
Authenticity Over Pretending
Influenced by the Television Workshop’s philosophy, Bella approaches acting as a process of “being and becoming” rather than pretending.
“[The Workshop] teaches you to be and become. No pretending,” Bella explained.
This approach results in performances that feel lived-in and genuine rather than performed. Bella inhabits characters fully, bringing their own experiences and perspectives to each role.
Neurodivergent Perspective
Bella believes their autism significantly influences their acting, allowing them to see characters and situations from unique angles.
“Being neurodivergent helps me see the world in unique ways,” Bella has said.
This perspective brings depth and unexpected choices to their performances, particularly in playing characters who exist outside societal norms.
Versatility
From fierce warriors (Lyanna Mormont) to rebellious medieval teenagers (Birdy) to post-apocalyptic survivors (Ellie), Bella has demonstrated remarkable range despite their young age.
They’re equally comfortable in comedy, drama, voice acting, and action, making them one of the most versatile young actors in the industry.
IMPACT & LEGACY
Representation
As one of the most visible non-binary actors in mainstream entertainment, Bella has become an important figure for LGBTQ+ representation, particularly for young people exploring their own identities.
Their success in major productions like “Game of Thrones” and “The Last of Us” has shown that non-binary actors can carry blockbuster projects and compete for top industry honors.
Neurodivergent Representation
Bella’s openness about their autism diagnosis has made them a role model for neurodivergent young people in the arts. They’ve shown that neurodivergence can be an asset rather than an obstacle in creative fields.
Breaking Barriers
