White Lotus star Walton Goggins shuts down Aimee Lou Wood interview questions amid ‘feud' rumours
WHITE Lotus star Walton Goggins has fuelled rumours of a "feud" after he shut down questions about co-star Aimee Lou Wood. The actors, who played Rick and Chelsea in season three of the hit HBO show, had spoken of their extremely close bond while filming the show in Thailand. 4 Walton Goggins has fuelled rumours of a 'feud' with co-star Aimee Lou Wood Credit: AFP 4 The US actor repeatedly shut down an questions about Aimee during a new interview Credit: Getty 4 Aimee and Walton have unfollowed each other on Instagram in recent weeks Credit: HBO But eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot that they had unfollowed each other on Instagram just a few weeks ago. Walton has hinted at some underlying tension in a new interview with The Times' Ed Porton, who noted the interview "went off the rails" when he tried to bring up co-star Aimee. When the interviewer asked about his relationship with Amy, it was quickly shut down by his publicist team sitting in on the interview. Walton sternly replied: "I'm not gonna have that conversation." "We're not going there, thank you," added one publicist, before another quickly moved on the topic of conversation. Ed approached the subject for a second time when he asked if he and Aimee would reunite at Saturday Night Live next week when he hosts the show. But Walton ignored the question and prompted his publicist to jump in to discuss his upcoming film, The Uninvited. Hoping for third time lucky, Ed brought up Aimee again, but Walton stated: "There is no conversation to be had about that. Sharing politics on social media – it's in a vacuum." Ed's last attempt to bring up his co-star did not go down well, as the actor fired back: "What the f**k, Ed! Come on buddy. Wow," as his publicists were forced to quickly wrap up the interview. White Lotus star Aimee Lou Woods SLAMS 'mean' Saturday Night Live sketch that mocked her teeth Viewers watched Rick and Aimee Lou Wood's character Chelsea's dynamic unfold across the season. Following the dramatic finale, Walton sat down with Cultured for a photoshoot and interview. He addressed having been asked what the "secret" to his enduring success is. Walton shared: "It was interesting to sit with that and try to answer honestly—I said, 'If I'm being real, it's fear.' Truly. A heavy dose of anxiety." The star added: "Of letting people down, being unprepared, dishonoring the people who made it possible for me to play pretend in front of a camera. "So, I try to work harder than anyone in the room." Continuing, Walton also opened up about how his process differed from colleagues on The White Lotus. He revealed: "I'll say this. Someone I worked with on The White Lotus didn't fully understand my process. "My character—Rick Hatchett—he's isolated. So during filming, I was isolated. "I liked mirroring that, but it was emotionally difficult." It comes as fans recently speculated Walton and co-star Aimee, 31, are feuding. The actors had spoken of their extremely close bond while filming White Lotus in Thailand. SPOILERS for White Lotus Season 3 finale below Rick and Chelsea's storyline ending saw them both killed in a Greek tragedy-style shoot-out at the luxury resort. Taking to Instagram, Walton posted a gushing, romantic tribute to the ill-fated pair - which was not liked by Aimee. Reddit, TikTok, and X were flooded with speculation over why the pair are not following each other on the social media site. One fan posted online: "They used to idolize each other and talk about each other in such positive light in interviews and such, it's so weird that all of a sudden there's this switch up?" Another shared: "They unfollowed each other on insta a couple weeks ago, Walton posts white lotus stuff and tags everyone in the photos except Aimee Lou wood, posts a whole tribute to white lotus and still doesn't tag her, posts tons of pictures of her on his story in a commemorative tribute to the show. what happened?"
