Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood recently addressed rumors about a feud between them during an interview with Variety, making it clear that no conflict ever existed. Despite fan speculation fueled by their social media behavior, Goggins emphasized that their relationship has always been positive and that the internet simply exaggerated the situation. He explained that his laughter at an SNL spoof, which parodied Aimee’s character, was directed at the sketch as a whole and not at her personally. After realizing that the parody hurt Wood, Goggins promptly removed his reaction.
Goggins spoke highly of Aimee Lou Wood, praising her experience and talent, and expressed deep affection for her, saying he “adores” her and is confident they care deeply for each other. He also clarified that unfollowing her on Instagram was a way to separate himself from his White Lotus character, not a sign of any personal issues. Meanwhile, Aimee stood by his side during the interview and shared that she was upset by people unfairly labeling Goggins as “sleazy,” but chose not to publicly correct the narrative at the time, fearing misinterpretation.
Together, they portrayed Rick and Chelsea in season 3 of The White Lotus, which continues to receive praise from fans and is available to stream on HBO. Their camaraderie behind the scenes remains as strong as ever, despite the rumors that briefly swirled online.
