The actor also posed in a light grey tracksuit for another shot and in a white shirt and trousers while holding an alpaca. 

Jon’s photoshoot went down a treat with fans who quickly took to social media to comment on the snaps.

They wrote: ‘He’s truly so hot’… ‘I’ve never been more obsessed with a photoshoot’… ‘This is the best thing I’ve seen in ages’. 

‘Jon I was not familiar with your game’… ‘Boyfriend boyfriending’. 

Jon’s other White Lotus co-star Aimee Lou Wood, who played Chelsea, shared one of the photos on Instagram and wrote: ‘This is the coolest thing ever @jongries’.  

It comes after Walton, who played Rick on the third season of the show, set the internet ablaze with his Speedo photoshoot.

Fans were treated new snaps of him leaving little to the imagination for CULTURED’s April/May 2025 issue, which saw him smoldering at the camera in his speedos and a suede jacket, left open to show off his chiselled chest.

Walton recently told the Mail’s You magazine this week that his character Rick’s unexpected sex-symbol status, gives him ‘a smile in my heart’.

While his wife Nadia Conners gushed: ‘He’s aged like fine wine. But it’s hard as I’m a middle-aged woman. So suddenly I feel like ‘all these women find him attractive’. 

‘But what’s so amazing is he’s always made me feel like the most beautiful woman in the room.’

In the accompanying interview with Cultured however, Walton opened up to his Fallout director Jonathon Nolan and admitted that despite his incredible success, he still struggles with a ‘deep fear’ that it will go away.

When musing on the ‘secret to his success’, he admitted ‘If I’m being real, it’s fear. Truly. A heavy dose of anxiety’, adding that he felt pressure not to let anyone down who allowed him to do his job as actor.

He explained that growing up without money also means he is constantly putting pressure on himself to provide for his family and determined to be the best father and husband he can.

Walton tied the knot with TV scriptwriter Nadia, 55, in 2011, just a few months after they welcomed their son Augustus, 14.
