Eagle-Eyed Fans Noticed Another Peculiar Detail Amid Aimee Lou Wood & Walton Goggins' Reported Feud
Warning: This article contains spoilers for season 3! Earlier this week, we reported that after The White Lotus finale on April 6, it seemed as though Aimee Lou Wood and Walton Goggins unfollowed each other almost instantly after it aired. Days after this hit the news, fans still can't figure out what's going on with them behind closed doors. However, fans had some hope that all wasn't lost between the former co-stars, but eagle-eyed fans noticed something else on Wood's social media. More from SheKnows Jenna Dewan Reveals It 'Meant Everything' to Have Daughter Evie See This Moment at Coachella 2025 As we said, the pair unfollowed each other, but fans noticed something: Wood is still following Walton Goggins Goggle Glasses, which is a premium Goggle Glasses company Goggins founded back in 2024. (However, that account doesn't follow Wood back, and what's even stranger is that the account doesn't follow Goggins' wife, Nadia Conners!) The pair played Chelsea and Rick in The White Lotus finale, who were unlikely lovers who were both shot dead in the finale, devastating social media. However, on April 7, Goggins paid homage to their characters with a series of snapshots of them on set, as well as numerous selfies they took on set to his Instagram story. Goggins posted a lengthy Instagram caption, saying. 'With the heaviest of hearts… To me, ours was a love story. It was only ever a love story, hindered by unresolved, childhood trauma. In the depths of our despair there is always beauty around us.' When this photo was posted, many noticed he didn't tag Wood, but tagged nearly everyone else on the show. And this is a far cry from their reported bond on set. In a March interview with the Telegraph, Goggins said he knew right away Wood would be 'a very special person in my life' and called her, 'on some levels, a soulmate.' As for Wood, she told The Times in April 2025 that the pair formed a bond that was like their characters. 'There was a lot of personal mirroring going on [with Walton],' she said. 'We've not had the same lives as them, but everyone's essence is pretty similar to their character.' While this is all blowing up now, fellow co-star John Isaacs started feud rumors months prior in Feb 2025. 'It was a theatre camp, but to some extent an open prison camp: you couldn't one another,' the actor told The Guardian. 'There were alliances that formed and broke, romances that formed and broke, friendships that formed and broke. It's a long period of time for people to be away from their family with an open bar and all the wildness being in Thailand allows.' (However, before you jump to any conclusions, per UsMagazine, Goggins even spoke about having his wife and son in Thailand with him!)Best of SheKnows 54 Celebrities Who Died Tragically Young: Lucy Markovic, Michelle Trachtenberg, & More 53 Celebrity Couples Who Aren't Afraid of a Little PDA Mrs. Doubtfire, Inside Out & Other 33 Family Movies Kids Will Love on Disney+

I'm Googley-Eyed for the Walton Goggins Goggle Glasses
These off-piste snowboarding sunglasses give you a (very) little piece of that White Lotus mystique. Photograph: Adrienne So; Getty Images If you buy something using links in our stories, we may earn a commission. Learn more. I'm not the first to say it, but the creator of The White Lotus , Mike White, is a genius. He created a show about fabulous—and sometimes morally bankrupt—people confined to a luxury resort and forced to confront their demons, and it also stars fabulous people confined in a luxury resort and forced to confront their demons. Not only do the show's characters have access to an open bar in an exotic location, so do the actors . Witness: the post- White Lotus drama swirling around season 3's star-crossed lovers, Rick and Chelsea. If you have not watched the show, do it now, cry, and come back. Rick and Chelsea were compelling, not because the story was well written (beautiful young women, it is not your job to save troubled older men! Ew!) but because Walton Goggins as Rick and Aimee Lou Wood as Chelsea had such incredible chemistry. In a time when everyone strives to look increasingly flawless and sexless, like a bunch of plastic dolls, you just couldn't stop looking at them absolutely rocking their imperfect teeth and hairlines. They were jolie laide, louche, worldly. You just can't attain that level of charisma by passing your photos through an AI filter. Photograph: Walton Goggins In a mysterious turn of events, considering their IRL chemistry, they appeared to have mysteriously unfollowed each other on Instagram. I can't stop thinking about them. Since Aimee Lou Wood's Stay Gold necklace is a little out of my budget, I instead got my hands on the Goggins Goggle Glasses. See what I mean? The man simply DGAF.

Jonathan Nolan's show was so good that it made me try to play Fallout , the video game. (Everyone says I would love Fallout 76 , but I'm having trouble getting past how old the graphics look.) Even when he's wearing a full face of skull makeup, Goggins as the Ghoul is an unimpeachable cowboy. His Architectural Digest feature on his Western-inspired, Hudson Valley home backs this up, and—as someone who is also restoring an older house—I am reasonably sure his entrepreneurial journey may be to fund all the work that needs to be done. I first got the email about the Walton Goggins Goggle Glasses late last year. 'Walton Goggins Goggle Glasses is funny to say, but I'm totally serious about sharing this brand with the world,' he says in the press release. I had thought the Goggle Glasses were a joke, not because of how they sound, but because of Goggins' decidedly tongue-in-cheek Super Bowl ad for GoDaddy. Personally I'm inclined to attribute any success that the Goggle Glasses might have less to the AI web-building tools of GoDaddy Airo and more to the fact that I could spend all day listening to Goggins huskily murmur, 'If your goggles ain't Goggins, they don't belong on your noggins'. The goggles are not a joke. These are actually … great? The sunglasses are ski- and snowboarding-inspired, so they cover your entire eye and stay on your face via a wide, comfortable strap on the back. The lenses are polarized performance lenses made by Revo, the company that started out by manufacturing eyewear protection for NASA in the 1980s. They're also modular, so if the strap is just too weird-looking, you can clip in nose pads and arms, which is genius. That alone makes the sunglasses so much more comfortable and useful, especially if you like boating, biking, or other high-speed activities. Ski goggles sit a little farther off your face for better ventilation and give you a wider field of view, but I haven't noticed any deficiencies in my peripheral vision; these would be great for spring skiing too. Moreover, they come in five different colors (La Tortuga and Mama's Skillet are back-ordered, but the blue is quite nice), and they're reasonably priced, at $150 for the whole kit. That's not cheap, but I'm also not going to be devastated if I drop them in the lake while I'm out on the pontoon boat with a beer in my hand. They also look—not bad! Although I have to say that my younger coworkers seem to appreciate them more than my older ones do. Sail Away Photograph: Walton Goggins If you haven't already watched the season finale then—spoiler alert—Rick and Chelsea die, because he can't escape his demons. The demon that Chelsea can't escape is Rick. Their deaths were foreshadowed the entire season, from Chelsea saying in episode 1 that she was going to get Rick his joy back, even if it kills her, to Chloe warning Chelsea that the romantic girls are the ones who always end up worse off in the end. I do have to say that, despite our (my) obsession with this love affair, Rick and Chelsea didn't have to be rich, and their storyline could've taken place on a whole other show. This is absolutely the wrong time for The White Lotus to stop making fun of all the horrific ways that the not-rich have to work around entitled rich people screwing with our lives. Still, I would put up with much worse to watch Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood in almost anything else, and in the meantime, I can prepare for my own summer vacations with a pair of the Goggins Goggle Glasses. If nothing else, this gives me an excuse to repeatedly show other people Goggins' Instagram, since my husband is absolutely sick of it. All you need for a little mystique of your own is a little spring skiing, with the wind whistling through your wisps of hair and your unbuttoned Hawaiian shirt. Photograph: Walton Goggins

Strap In: GoDaddy Reveals 2025 Super Bowl Spot
Originally published on GoDaddy Newsroom TEMPE, Ariz., February 5, 2025 /3BL/ -- GoDaddy (NYSE: GDDY) debuted its Super Bowl commercial today, featuring GoDaddy Airo® and two-time EMMY® award-nominated actor Walton Goggins. The ad, titled 'Act Like You Know,' showcases how GoDaddy Airo® brings small business ideas like Walton Goggins Goggle Glasses to life through AI, giving entrepreneurs the tools to look and feel like they know what they're doing. 'When we set out to tell the story of empowering entrepreneurs with GoDaddy Airo, we knew we wanted to tell that story through the lens of an actual entrepreneur,' said GoDaddy Chief Marketing Officer Fara Howard. 'Walton was the perfect partner—he had a passion for entrepreneurship and eyewear, and GoDaddy Airo could help him bring it to life. This campaign is all about proving that with the right AI tools, anyone can build a business and confidently feel like they know what they're doing. We're proud to show the value of GoDaddy Airo to a massive audience on game day.' GoDaddy Airo® Drives the Return to Big Game Advertising In 180 countries and counting, GoDaddy Airo ® is an AI-powered experience that enables entrepreneurs to establish and grow their online presence by generating domain names, logos, fully built websites and marketing, social media content and commerce capabilities. With more than 3 million customers tapping into the power of GoDaddy Airo® in the U.S. alone, its impact on small businesses inspired GoDaddy's return to Super Bowl advertising after an eight-year hiatus. Walton Goggins Goggle Glasses: An Example of the Power of GoDaddy Airo® Goggins is known for his scene-stealing performances in 'Fallout,' 'The Righteous Gemstones,' 'Vice Principals,' 'The Hateful Eight,' 'Justified' and the upcoming season of 'The White Lotus.' As an actor, Goggins can make you believe he knows what he's doing in just about any role—from a post-apocalyptic bounty hunter to a power-hungry vice principal—even when he doesn't. But his toughest job yet isn't one he plays onscreen; it's his real-life role as a small business owner. Walton launched Walton Goggins Goggle Glasses last year, offering retro-futuristic hybrid eyewear. GoDaddy Airo® helped his Goggle Glasses brand create a logo, website and social content, transforming an idea into a business like a seasoned pro. Small business owners like Goggins can focus on what they do best and let GoDaddy Airo®, using the power of AI, take care of the rest. 'As an entrepreneur, you need more than just an idea—you need the confidence and know-how to turn that idea into something,' said Walton Goggins. 'For me, that's where GoDaddy Airo came in. It filled in the gaps and made Walton Goggins Goggle Glasses a reality.' The Spot: 'Act Like You Know' The ad opens with a close-up of Goggins. 'Actors. We can make you believe we know what we're doing, when in fact, we do not.' Various scenes depict Goggins playing roles he could not perform in real life, first as a detective absentmindedly traipsing through a sensitive crime scene. Then he's an astronaut floating inside a space station, where he manipulates complex controls and admits, 'I have no idea what these buttons do,' as he accidentally launches a fellow astronaut into deep space. Next, he's a race car driver, dramatically shifting gears…in a car that he's inadvertently driving backwards. The spot shifts to Goggins entering his office, where boxes of Walton Goggins Goggle Glasses line the walls. There he acknowledges working as a small business owner is his hardest role yet. That's because 'I have no idea what I'm doing… but GoDaddy Airo® does, using AI to build a logo, website and social content.' Goggins confidently shows off his beautiful website created with GoDaddy Airo®. Wearing his signature namesake eyewear, Goggins declares: 'If your goggles ain't Goggins, they don't belong on your noggins.' Goggins then delivers the ad's final line: 'With GoDaddy Airo, it's like you know what you're doing.' The spot also features a cameo appearance by Auguste Goldman, a GoDaddy veteran of nearly 18 years, as a police officer behind Goggins at the fake crime scene. Goldman has worn many hats throughout the years, including Chief Technology Officer, Chief People Officer and head of the company's award-winning Care & Services team. Now he can add 'Super Bowl extra' to the list. What to Expect During the Big Game and Beyond GoDaddy's 30-second ad will air during the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter of the game on February 9. The spot is also now available on GoDaddy's YouTube, X, Instagram and Facebook channels. GoDaddy also released an extended version available on YouTube. The Super Bowl moment begins a yearlong, multi-channel marketing campaign in the U.S. across television, over-the-top (OTT) services, YouTube, out-of-home, social media and influencer marketing. The campaign, featuring Goggins, will continue highlighting GoDaddy Airo® as the ultimate small business partner.
