Aimee Lou Wood has finally spoken up about all the rumors swirling around her and her The White Lotus co-star Walton Goggins. The two were both at the 2025 Met Gala but didn’t walk the red carpet together, which definitely caught fans’ attention.
Aimee looked amazing in a stunning Priya Ahluwalia outfit, paired with custom Manolo Blahnik shoes and comfy Bombas socks, while Walton went for a sharp, tailored Thom Browne suit. But here’s the thing—while Aimee showed up arm-in-arm with actor Patrick Schwarzenegger (who rocked Balmain), Walton arrived solo. No shared poses, no friendly chatter—fans quickly noticed the distance.
When asked about whether she might surprise everyone by popping up on Saturday Night Live this weekend (where Walton is hosting), Aimee played it cool. She laughed and said, “I couldn’t say… but also I’m not, I’m not doing that.” Still, she had nothing but nice things to say about working with Walton, calling it “the best thing ever” and saying she can’t wait to see him kill it on SNL.
Earlier on social media, fans spotted something interesting: the two actors were liking and commenting on each other’s posts after months of silence. Could this mean they’re patching things up or at least easing the tension? It sure looks like it.
About her red carpet buddy, Patrick Schwarzenegger explained that their decision to attend together was all about friendship and calming nerves. He texted Aimee because he was nervous, and it turned out she felt the same way! So they teamed up and showed up side-by-side, making the night easier and more fun.
Now, the drama fans have been whispering about involves some tension on The White Lotus set last year. Rumor has it that Aimee and Walton clashed because of different acting styles and creative disagreements. By the end of filming, their relationship reportedly cooled down to “strictly professional,” which explains why they might have kept their distance at the Met Gala.
