Walton Goggins 'shuts down interview when probed on Aimee Lou Wood feud'
Walton Goggins awkwardly shut down an interview after being asked three times about his alleged 'feud' with Aimee Lou Wood, it's been claimed.
The 53-year-old actor played the Sex Education star's romantic co-star in Mike White's third season of The White Lotus.
However, despite Rick and Chelsea's on-screen chemistry in Thailand, the pair seem to have fallen out since filming wrapped.
Eagled-eyed observers spotted how the pair no longer follow each other on Instagram.
Other co-stars also hinted at tangled friendships in a 'Lord Of The Flies summer camp'.
Now, reports have emerged that Walton dramatically 'derailed' an interview after being asked about Aimee.

During a talk with The Times' Ed Porton, Walton seemed stern when asked about his relationship with the Toxic Town actress, replying: 'I'm not gonna have that conversation.'
A nearby publicist also added: 'We're not going there, thank you.'
After the interviewer pressed Ed about their friendship again and whether Aimee would be present when he hosts Saturday Night Live next week, Walton refused to respond.
After this, his publicist suggested the pair talked about his upcoming movie The Uninvited.
However, after the interviewer's final attempt to bring up the topic of Aimee, Walton said: 'There is no conversation to be had about that. Sharing politics on social media – it's in a vacuum.'

When the interviewer tried again, Walton 'gasped', saying: 'What the f**k, Ed! Come on buddy. Wow,' which brought the interview to an abrupt end.
Walton's comments come after American comedy show Saturday Night Live aired a skit of the series, called 'The White Potus'.
The series' characters were replaced by depictions of Donald Trump and his inner circle.
But SNL cast member Sarah Sherman impersonated Chelsea by wearing exaggerated prosthetic teeth.
Posting on her Instagram story, Aimee described the sketch as 'mean and unfunny'. Since then, SNL has apologised.

In later posts, the Sex Education actress said she didn't mind people making fun of her, 'but there must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way?'
She added: 'The whole joke was about fluoride. I have big gap teeth not bad teeth. The rest of the skit was punching up and I/Chelsea was the only one punched down on.'
Starring Jon Hamm as RFK Jr., he begins to ramble to Aimee's character Chelsea about various medical plans and fluoride in water before saying he is going to go off and kill a monkey.
But, despite Aimee taking offence at her depiction, Walton found the sketch to be 'amazing'.
In a now deleted comment on Instagram under SNL's post, he wrote: 'Hahahahahhahaha Amazzzingggg.'
He then shared the clip to his Instagram story and wrote the word 'smashing'.
In addition, he praised Hamm's parody of Rick by saying: 'Jon… I knew I was miscast.'

Sydney Sweeney jumps out of a plane as her latest film BOMBS amid AE jeans ad scandal
Sydney Sweeney revealed she recently jumped out of a perfectly good airplane to perform a tandem skydive while strapped to Red Bull Air Force member Luke Aikins. The 27-year-old thrill seeker made sure her flight suit was zipped just low enough to showcase her cleavage while plummeting 10K feet in the air. Sydney - who boasts 28.4M social media followers - captioned her Instagram video: 'Probably the coolest thing I've ever had the opportunity of doing. Thank you @lukeaikins for a memory of a lifetime.' The 51-year-old professional skydiver - who made history in 2016 as the first person to skydive without a parachute and land in a 100ft x 100ft net - made sure Sweeney had a safe landing following their daredevil stunt. Luke is no stranger to the film industry having worked on stunts for Black Widow (2021), Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018), Godzilla (2014), and Iron Man 3 (2013). The Euphoria actress' post attempted to distract from the fact that her new indie film Americana only made $500K from 1,100 theaters over the weekend. Sydney portrays an aspiring country singer and South Dakota waitress called Penny Jo Poplin in Tony Tost's modern-day western, which will hit UK theaters this Friday. Lionsgate Premiere Releasing reportedly expects to earn a total $1.5M on Americana, which arrived two years after its South by Southwest world premiere and three years after production wrapped. The long-delayed crime thriller - formerly known as National Anthem - also stars Halsey, Paul Walter Hauser, Eric Dane, and Simon Rex. Americana's performance might have been affected by Sweeney's controversial American Eagle campaign, which was accused of pushing Nazi-like eugenics as aspirational. 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color,' the newly-registered Republican said in the original commercial. 'My jeans are blue.' Sydney has yet to publicly address the 'White supremacy' backlash, but CEO Jay Schottenstein issued a statement stressing that the spot 'is and always was about the jeans' and noted that 'great jeans look good on everyone.' The $3.3B denim brand's stock price, which had dropped dramatically on August 1, has surged over 27% specifically thanks to President Donald Trump's public approval of the 'HOTTEST ad out there.' Sweeney will next portray the real-life German settler Margret Wittmer in Ron Howard's $50M-budget survival thriller Eden - hitting US theaters this Friday - alongside Jude Law, Ana de Armas, and Daniel Brühl. The real Margret Wittmer was buried on Floreana Island in 2000 when she died, at age 95, after expanding the settlement and writing about her experiences in the 1959 book Floreana: A Woman's Pilgrimage to the Galápagos. Ominously, the movie formerly known as Origin of Species has a dismal 59% critic approval rating (out of 41 reviews) on Rotten Tomatoes following its Toronto International Film Festival debut last year. Speaking of TIFF, the Spokane-born LA-raised bombshell will likely attend the September 5th world premiere of David Michôd's biopic Christy about professional boxer Christy Martin. Sydney - who packed on 30lbs of muscle for the plum part - has practiced mixed martial arts since middle school. In January, Sweeney was hard at work executive producing and starring in Paul Feig's big-screen adaptation of Freida McFadden's 2022 novel The Housemaid, which Lionsgate plans to release in time for Christmas. Next year, audiences finally get to see the Fifty-Fifty Films co-founder reprise her breakout role as the problematic Cassie Howard in the eight-episode third season of HBO hit show Euphoria. Sam Levinson's drug-fueled drama starring Zendaya will welcome newcomers Sharon Stone, Rosalía, Marshawn Lynch, and Kadeem Hardison in season three. Lionsgate Premiere Releasing reportedly expects to earn a total $1.5M on Americana, which arrived two years after its South by Southwest world premiere and three years after production wrapped The long-delayed crime thriller's performance might have been affected by Sweeney's controversial American Eagle campaign, which was accused of pushing Nazi-like eugenics as aspirational Sydney has yet to publicly address the 'White supremacy' backlash, but CEO Jay Schottenstein issued a statement stressing that the spot 'is and always was about the jeans' and noted that 'great jeans look good on everyone' Ominously, the movie formerly known as Origin of Species has a dismal 59% critic approval rating (out of 41 reviews) on Rotten Tomatoes following its Toronto Film Festival debut last year Sydney will soon begin producing and starring in her Euphoria castmate Colman Domingo's feature directorial debut Scandalous! about the love affair between Kim Novak and Sammy Davis Jr. (David Jonsson). Sweeney has several more projects in the works including the Reddit-based thriller I Pretended to Be a Missing Girl for Warner Bros, Jon M. Chu's sci-fi flick Split Fiction for Amazon MGM Studios, and she's producing Michael Bay's video game adaptation OutRun for Universal. Aside from her movie career, the in-demand Zoomer is every bit the influencer with lucrative paid partnerships for brands like Samsung Mobile USA, Dr. Squatch, LANEIGE US, Bai, and HEYDUDE.

Photo of Elle Macpherson confirms long-standing rumour about the model
A recent photo of Elle Macpherson has confirmed a long-standing rumour about the model's hair. The 61-year-old posted a series of holiday snaps to Instagram on Tuesday and one image appears to confirm that Elle wears hair extensions to add volume to her locks. The photo shows Elle walking through a European city in a brown shirt and matching skirt. She had her long blonde locks tied into a messy bun but as she looked down, one of her hair extension bonds was visible. The clip-in extension was noticeable on the top of her head as she pulled her locks back. Hollywood stars and models often wear wigs and hair extensions to achieve a more youthful appearance as hair thins and loses volume with age. Elle is renowned for her radiant, luscious locks and youthful complexion. She previously revealed how she protects her hair when she's not working with the best in the beauty business. From ditching the hot tools to protecting her locks from the harsh sun, Elle shared her top five tips for optimal health hair on her Get The Gloss column. She said she is a big believer that eating well and having a healthy gut plays a crucial role in keeping hair thick and luscious. 'The gut plays a crucial role in nutrient absorption,' she said. 'The combination of botanical herbs, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and probiotics that feature in The Super Elixir™ and The Hair Elixir [from WelleCo] will keep your gut microbiome, and in turn your hair, healthy.' Elle also explained it's best to put the hot tools down and keep hair natural as much as possible. Elle also said it's important to protect hair from the sun and believes this is key to keeping her hair silky and healthy. When she is out in the sun and the sea, she uses hydrating and protecting masks. In colder climates, the supermodel wears her hair in braids with a leave-in mask to ensure UV protection and hydration. And one of Elle's biggest tips for healthier hair is a well-looked-after scalp. She likes to give herself a gentle scalp massage with a natural oil like coconut, almond, or jojoba to improve blood circulation and stimulate hair growth.
