While "House of the Dragon’s" early episodes were airing on HBO, the show was swiftly renewed for a second season, but a shocking change also came up for Season 2 during this time. It was announced early on that one of the series’ showrunners, Miguel Sapochnik, decided to step away from the "Game of Thrones" prequel. Now it’s been revealed that his reason for leaving was reportedly very personal.
In a report from Puck (via TV Line) it was revealed that Sapochnik allegedly decided to leave the "Game of Thrones" prequel because the show wouldn’t promote his wife, who also worked on "HOTD." Alexis Raben, Sapochnik’s wife, is an actress who played Queen Alicent’s maid Talya. According to the report Sapochnick wanted her to join him and Ryan Condal (the other showrunner) to produce Season 2.
