But this week, things took a more emotional turn when she was spotted in tears during a London outing, accompanied by <strong data-start=\"509\" data-end=\"544\">Film Club co-writer Ralph Davis<\/strong>, according to TMZ.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"565\" data-end=\"1169\">The emotional moment comes after the actress publicly <strong data-start=\"619\" data-end=\"639\">called out <em data-start=\"632\" data-end=\"637\">SNL<\/em><\/strong> for a parody of her character that many found mean-spirited. The skit mocked Wood\u2019s character\u2014specifically her <strong data-start=\"751\" data-end=\"760\">teeth<\/strong> and <strong data-start=\"765\" data-end=\"783\">British accent<\/strong>\u2014and the actress didn\u2019t hold back in expressing how she felt about it. Taking to her <strong data-start=\"868\" data-end=\"889\">Instagram Stories<\/strong>, Wood described the skit as \u201cunfunny and mean,\u201d and shared her thoughts on how humor should be done differently. \u201cYes, take the piss for sure\u2014that\u2019s what the show is about\u2014but there must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way?\u201d she wrote, calling for more thoughtful comedy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1171\" data-end=\"1655\">The backlash wasn\u2019t just from Wood. Fans and social media users quickly joined the conversation, criticizing the skit and sharing their opinions on why it missed the mark. In a follow-up Instagram story, Wood revealed that she had received an <strong data-start=\"1414\" data-end=\"1425\">apology<\/strong> from the <em data-start=\"1435\" data-end=\"1440\">SNL<\/em> team, but she made it clear that <strong data-start=\"1474\" data-end=\"1491\">Sarah Sherman<\/strong>, the cast member who played her character in the skit, wasn\u2019t at fault. \u201cNot hating on her, hating on the concept,\u201d Wood explained, showing empathy toward Sherman.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1657\" data-end=\"1948\">Wood\u2019s portrayal of <strong data-start=\"1677\" data-end=\"1688\">Chelsea<\/strong> in <em data-start=\"1692\" data-end=\"1709\">The White Lotus<\/em> has been widely praised by fans for being authentic and relatable, which only made the <em data-start=\"1797\" data-end=\"1802\">SNL<\/em> mockery sting even more. People love her character\u2019s complexity and vulnerability, which is a big part of why the skit felt out of place to many.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1950\" data-end=\"2295\">In addition to <em data-start=\"1965\" data-end=\"1982\">The White Lotus<\/em>, Aimee Lou Wood has been busy with a variety of other projects, including <em data-start=\"2057\" data-end=\"2072\">Sex Education<\/em>, <em data-start=\"2074\" data-end=\"2086\">Toxic Town<\/em>, <em data-start=\"2088\" data-end=\"2102\">Alice & Jack<\/em>, <em data-start=\"2104\" data-end=\"2139\">The Electrical Life of Louis Wain<\/em>, and <em data-start=\"2145\" data-end=\"2158\">Seize Them!<\/em>.
