The White Lotus Season 3 concluded with a thrilling and emotionally charged finale, Amor Fati, where viewers were on the edge of their seats as they awaited the fate of the characters. Despite the ominous gunshots teased in the premiere, almost every main character survived, though many experienced dramatic turns that left them deeply changed.

Here’s a breakdown of what happened to each character:

  1. Belinda and Zion: Both survived the finale. Belinda, in a surprising twist, secured a $5 million wire transfer from Greg to keep quiet about Tanya’s situation, drastically altering her life.
  2. The Ratliff Family: This family faced a near-death experience due to Tim’s plot to poison them using ingredients from a deadly fruit tree. He prepared poisoned Pina Coladas but had a change of heart at the last moment. However, the youngest son, Lochlan, accidentally ingested some of the poison the next day, leading to a terrifying incident where he fell and threw up in the pool. Miraculously, Lochlan recovered, leaving the family intact, albeit shaken.
  3. Frank: He was notably absent from the chaotic events at the resort and thus remained untouched by the violence that unfolded.
  4. Gaitok: Gaitok, under pressure from Sritala, shot Rick, ending his life. Afterward, he was promoted and added to Sritala’s security team.
  5. Laurie, Kate, and Jaclyn: The trio of friends emerged physically unharmed, but they faced intense emotional battles, particularly during their last night at the resort.
  6. Fabian: Though he was close to the gunfire and fell into a pond in shock, Fabian quickly recovered without serious injury.
  7. Pornchai, Mook, and Greg: These characters survived the finale without significant issues. However, Greg did lose the $5 million to keep Belinda silent, adding an intriguing layer to his character’s arc.
