Walton Goggins’ Wife Speaks Out On His Rumored Affair With ‘White Lotus’ Co-Star Aimee Lou Wood

Nadia Conners, the wife of “White Lotus” star Walton Goggins, has weighed in on rumors of trouble in paradise.

The “11th Hour” director and Goggins wed in 2011 after dating for around six years, and Goggins starred in her 2024 movie, “The Uninvited.”

In an interview with Hello! Magazine, Conners seemed unfazed by speculation that her husband had an affair with his “White Lotus” co-star Aimee Lou Wood, suggesting the gossip was simply a reflection of the public’s obsession with the HBO hit show.

“It’s odd to see it, but it’s an indication of how much people were invested in the fictional characters,” Conners said. “I take it as a sign that he’s become quite popular.

Goggins, 53, and Wood, 31, became fan favorites on the series’ Season 3 for their portrayals of ill-fated couple Rick and Chelsea.

Would-be sleuths on the internet began speculating that an offscreen romance was brewing based largely on the pair’s social media activity, as well as some comments cast members made to the media.

During press for the show, the married Goggins referred to his younger co-star as “a soulmate” and said the two had become “enmeshed in each other” during production.

“I felt I had known her, you know, for a thousand years. And I think she felt the same about me,” he told the Associated Press in March.

After the show’s shocking finale in April, Goggins posted a series of photos of himself and Wood on his Instagram Story, set to Fleetwood Mac’s breakup anthem “Silver Springs.” Wood posted a tribute to the characters with her own Instagram post featuring the same song.

Around that same time, fans noticed the two actors no longer followed each other on social media. Some speculated that one had blocked the other, fueling rumors of a fall-out or feud. (As of early May, they are following each other again.)

Meanwhile, an interview with fellow “White Lotus” star Jason Isaacs resurfaced in which he made vague references to major behind-the-scenes drama, including “romances that formed and broke.”

Neither Goggins nor Wood has spoken out publicly about any rumors. At the Met Gala, where the two actors both appeared but were not photographed together, Wood remarked that she “loved working” with the “Justified” star. Goggins, for his part, refused to comment on his relationship with Wood when asked by a reporter in an interview published earlier this month.
