The White Lotus star Walton Goggins sends fans wild with steamy photo shoot in yellow swimming briefs
Walton Goggins posed for a sizzling photo shoot for CULTURED Magazine 's second annual CULT100 in a pair of yellow swimming briefs.
The actor, 53, is the flavor of the month after starring as the moody Rick Hatchett in the latest season of The White Lotus.
And on Tuesday, fans were treated to new snaps of the star, who left little to the imagination as he showcased his chiseled chest and toned abs.
The actor gave off a smoldering look to the camera as he posed in the tight-fitting briefs with an unbuttoned suede jacket and pedant necklace.
Sharing the photos to his Instagram, his swooning fans raced to the comments section to heap praise on the actor's sizzling appearance.
Some of the comments included: 'The finest man I have ever seen in my life'; 'I wasn't expecting this on my 2025 bingo card but I am NOT disappointed'.
'Straight man here and holy hell I'm into it'; 'Have mercy on my SOULLLLL'; 'Goonin for Goggins'; 'walton gaggings'.
Leaving little to the imagination: Another shot saw the actor pose on a marked crosswalk in the yellow swimming briefs with patterned cowboy boots
Another wrote: 'Yellow budgie smugglers were not on my bingo card for items that Walton Goggins would be wearing in 2025, but here we are. And he still looks incredible! We love you Walton!'
Others said: 'Yea Chelsea. I get it now'; 'Help I'm pregnant'; 'Walton showing us his Goggins'; 'You gotta let me live, sir. I'm but a humble maiden'.
The official account for The White Lotus also couldn't resist commenting, quipping: 'Some guests leave their mark.'
It comes after Walton told DailyMail.com this week that his character Rick's unexpected sex-symbol status gives 'a smile in my heart'.
While his wife Nadia Conners gushed: 'He's aged like fine wine. But it's hard as I'm a middle-aged woman. So suddenly I feel like all these women find him attractive.
'But what's so amazing is he's always made me feel like the most beautiful woman in the room.'
In the accompanying interview with Cultured, Walton admitted that despite his incredible success, he still struggles with a 'deep fear' that it will go away.
When musing on the 'secret to his success', he admitted 'If I'm being real, it's fear. Truly. A heavy dose of anxiety', adding that he felt pressure not to let anyone down who allowed him to do his job as actor.
Witty: The official account for The White Lotus couldn't resist commenting too
He explained that growing up without money also means he is constantly putting pressure on himself to provide for his family and determined to be the best father and husband he can.
Walton tied the knot with TV scriptwriter Nadia, 55, in 2011, just a few months after they welcomed their son Augustus, 14.
Detailing his 'debilitating fear', he said: 'I wake up every morning and stand at the crossroads with two cappuccinos in my hands.
'I ask myself what kind of artist I want to be, what kind of friend, what kind of father, what kind of husband. My dilemma isn't about my occupation; it is about what sort of man I can be on any given day.
'That, coupled with a deep fear that I have made a mistake and might be living beyond my means, is debilitating. I'm constantly having conversations with myself about plan A, plan B, C, D… on a bad night I can get to the end of the alphabet.'

Hollyoaks star Ali Bastian reveals her body is ‘under construction' after cancer
Former Hollyoaks star Ali Bastian has discussed her cancer recovery. The 43-year old actress played Becca Dean on the Channel 4 soap for 6 years between 2001 and 2007. After leaving the show, she had a regular role in ITV police drama The Bill, and starred as Becky Clarke in since-axed BBC daytime medical series Doctors. In September, she revealed her diagnosis with stage two breast cancer, confirming that she discovered a lump whilst breastfeeding her daughter Isabella. At first, doctors believed the lump to be a blocked duct, though following a round of antibiotics and further tests done at a specialist clinic, cancerous cells were found. In December, she rang the bell after five months of treatment and, three months later, she revealed that she is cancer free. 'I wanted to update you all,' the star wrote on Instagram at the time. 'I'm on to my final week of radio therapy which should mark the end my active treatment – I hope and pray for good! 'I had my mastectomy in January which was thankfully a success and has healed really well, it proved that my chemo had worked. 'As I sit here right now, I'm free from Cancer. I can't even believe it.' She has now said that her body is 'under construction' and that she's considering reconstruction surgery following a mastectomy. 'I couldn't have a reconstruction at the time because we always knew I'd have to have radiotherapy. At some point there'll be some kind of something,' she told Giovanna Fletcher on her Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast 'Initially I was like 100% it's happening. But now, I want to have the conversations and talk through what the options are, but I'm not actually married to any of them at the moment.' She continued: 'I've got a really good prosthetic that makes a big difference. It means in clothes I feel normal. It's bright pink. It makes me happy. 'It's just very different to the lump of silicone that you get handed in the hospital, which is a hell of a moment. 'This is a lot lighter and easy to wear. I quite like that it doesn't look like a chicken fillet, like a pretend boob. Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers? Who's leaving Coronation Street?

More Trending Ali shares two daughters, five-year old Isla and two-year old Isabella, with husband David O'Mahony. She continued to tell Giovanna that she now plans to focus on other health issues, such as a hernia that she developed during childbirth. 'I've got a big old hernia from my babies as well,' she said. 'Because of all of this I haven't been able to have that done, and actually I'm more keen to get that done than anything else because that is harder to hide. View More » 'It's like a tennis ball.

Love Island star calls for show to be AXED – eight years after hitting rock bottom on it
She took to her Instagram Stories to share a powerful statement hours before the new series kicked off Axe to grind Love Island star calls for show to be AXED – eight years after hitting rock bottom on it Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island star Malin Andersson has called for the show to be AXED - eight years after hitting rock bottom on it. Malin, 32, said it's 'shocking' the ITV2 staple is still on-air and accused it of fuelling eating disorders and glorifying toxic relationships. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Love Island star Malin Andersson has called for the show to be AXED Credit: Instagram She took to her Instagram Stories to share a powerful statement hours before the new series kicked off, nearly a decade after she appeared on it. Malin wrote: "Love Island. It starts tonight.. I'm quite shocked this show is still on air to be honest. "I was on it 8 years ago, and in that 8 years I've turned pain into purpose and used my platform for good. "Within the 8 years that have passed I've had to hit rockbottom to find a strength I never knew I had - and awaken to the truth of who we are. "However what young Malin didn't know was, how dangerous a show like this is - portraying toxicity as love, unrealistic body standards and women who maybe broken inside but wanting love for the wrong reasons - and thinking fame will save them.. and as for the men - similar things. "We need a show on how to show the world what it looks like to HEAL WITHIN & find love for ourselves first, then finding it in someone else. "We don't need a show making women especially feel bad about themselves - or fuelling eating disorders. That's outdated now. It's not it." Malin found fame on the second series of Love Island in 2016, spending 24 days in the villa where she was partnered with Terry Walsh. Though she's synonymous with the show, Malin has made it known before she isn't a fan. She previously told Bobby Norris on Fubar Radio: "I've not watched it. I haven't watched a single episode. I didn't even watch my own series. I ran my fingers through my hair and found another bald patch… I know what caused it to fall out, says Malin Andersson "From what I can see the format is the same and it's like the luggage belt at the airport arrivals and they're just spinning out the same characters. It's the same old bag every time. It sounds really bad.' She continued: 'I think Love Island has had its day a long time ago. And I think for the younger generation, there could be more put out there. I think all we're seeing now is a lot of dating shows.' Mum Malin recalled her obsession in the villa with viewers' perception of her appearance. She likened the experience to Jim Carrey's classic film, The Truman Show, in which his character is the central figure in a reality construct he has no idea about. 'I remember being in the villa and I kept asking the producers 'are there any bad comments about my weight?'" she said. "That's all I cared about. 'Are there any comments calling me fat?' That's all I remember asking them. "They would say no to everything. You're in the Truman show in there. It is literally like a bubble. No time, they tell you when to eat, when to sleep. It's such a different false reality." ITV has been contacted for comment. Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX. Love Island's duty of care Pre Filming and Filming - Registered mental health professional engaged throughout the whole series - from pre-filming to aftercare. - Thorough pre-filming psychological and medical assessments including assessments by an independent doctor, psychological consultant and reports from each Islander's own GP to check medical history. - Potential Islanders are required to fully disclose in confidence any medical history that would be relevant to their inclusion in the Villa and the production's ability to provide a suitable environment for them. - Managing cast expectations: detailed explanations both verbally and in writing of the implications, both positive and negative, of taking part in the series are given to potential cast members throughout the casting process and reinforced within the contract so it is clear. - Cast are told they should consider all the potential implications of taking part in the show and work through this decision-making process in consultation with their family and those closest to them, to ensure they feel it is right for them. - Senior Team on the ground have received training in Mental Health First Aid. - A welfare team solely dedicated to the Islanders both during the show and after. Aftercare - Bespoke training on dealing with social media and advice on finance and adjusting to life back home. - A minimum of eight therapy sessions will be offered to each Islander when they return home. - Proactive contact with Islanders for a period of 14 months after the series in which they have appeared has ended, with additional help provided where applicable. - We encourage Islanders to secure management to represent them after the show and manage them should they choose to take part in other TV shows, advertising campaigns or other public appearance opportunities. ITV's support for Mental Health In 2019 ITV selected mental health as the main focus for its on air health campaigns aimed at its viewers. ITV partnered with Mind and YoungMinds, alongside SAMH in Scotland, and Ant and Dec launched the Britain Get Talking campaign in Britain's Got Talent, with the aim of encouraging 10m people to take action to support their mental or physical health by 2023. Since it launched, Britain Get Talking has resulted in over 100 million more meaningful conversations, and in 2022 ITV announced a further target of encouraging 200 million actions for better health by the end of 2023. Alongside Britain Get Talking, ITV has a mental wellbeing initiative aimed at a younger demographic in partnership with mental health charity Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM). In 2022 it encouraged 1.8m young people to take action to feel better able to cope with life's ups and downs through the campaign 'What Gets You Through'. ITV's Mental Health Advisory Group, chaired by Ruth Davidson with members including CEOs of mental health charities Mind, YoungMinds and SAMH, provides guidance and support on all aspects of ITV, and STV's, approach to mental health and wellbeing among its people, production teams, participants in its shows and audiences. ITV also hosted the Mental Health in the Media conference in March 2023, bringing writers, producers, duty of care professionals, brands and broadcasters together to explore best practice around mental wellbeing on screen and behind the screens. 4 She said it's 'shocking' the ITV2 staple is still on-air Credit: Instagram 4 Malin accused it of fuelling eating disorders and glorifying toxic relationships Credit: Instagram
