It appears that White Lotus co-stars Aimee Lou Wood and Walton Goggins might have ended their feud after months of speculation.

The actors portrayed star-crossed lovers Rick and Chelsea on the latest season of the HBO show, with both their characters dying in the dramatic final episode.

But something appeared afoot between Walton and Aimee, as last month it appeared they were no longer following each other on Instagram.

Fans even speculated that Walton may have blocked Aimee because her comments and likes on his past posts had disappeared. 

But now they are definitely following each other again which could lead White Lotus fans to believe they have managed to sort out their differences.

Last month fans speculated that he might of blocked her as rumours continued to circulate about what might have happened between them.

Her comments and likes on his past posts had disappeared. However, previous comments from Walton were still visible on Aimee’s posts. 

According to Instagram Help Center, comments and likes are removed when you block someone on Instagram. 

When you block someone, their likes and posts will be removed from your photos and videos. Unblocking someone does not restore their previous likes and comments.

Aimee Lou, who boasts 2.6m Instagram followers, has been passionately sharing behind the scenes photos and reposts from her co-stars throughout the third season, with Walton also sharing his own set memories. 

And in their posts they have both enthusiastically tagged their co-stars – every one but each other. 

They are both still following all the other cast members from the show. 

It comes after this week Walton dramatically ‘derailed’ an interview three times when he was asked about his alleged feud with her.

He shut down questions about Aimee during an interview with The Times’ Ed Porton, who noted the interview ‘went off the rails’ when he attempted to bring up his co-star. 

When first asked about his relationship with Amy, Walton seemed stern and replied: ‘I’m not gonna have that conversation.’

‘We’re not going there, thank you,’ added one publicist, who was sitting in on the interview, while another publicist moved on the conversation. 

Ed pressed once more about their friendship as he asked whether Aimee would be present when Walton hosts Saturday Night Live next week, questioning whether ‘a rapprochement was  looming’.

Yet Walton refused to respond, prompting his publicist to jump in and suggest they talk more about his upcoming movie, The Uninvited. 

Ed pressed again on the subject of Aimee, to which Walton insisted: ‘There is no conversation to be had about that. Sharing politics on social media – it’s in a vacuum.’ 

He made a final attempt to bring up his co-star, to which Walton snapped back: ‘What the f**k, Ed! Come on buddy. Wow,’ and his publicists promptly brought the interview to an end. 

Reports about Walton and Aimee’s ‘feud’ intensified after Amy was left in tears over a ‘cruel and unfunny’ Saturday Night Live (SNL) sketch. 

During an episode that aired last month, Amy’s smile was mocked with exaggerated prosthetic teeth which Walton was caught liking a clip of online.

Reacting to the video shared on SNL’s social media, Walton commented, ‘Hahahahahhahaha Amazzzingggg,’ though it remains unclear if he was referring to the entire sketch or the part targeting Amy.

It comes amid reports the two are expected to reunite soon for a professional obligation.

Entertainment reporter Elizabeth Wagmeister shared on The Viall Files podcast that she learned ‘off the record’ the pair are set to ‘do something professionally in the coming weeks together.’

‘So, if there really is a feud, this has not stopped them… It’s not like they can’t be in the same room,’ Wagmeister added, hinting that the rift may not be as explosive as other rumored co-star feuds, like Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni.

Walton and Aimee followed each other during filming and left comments on each other’s posts – including some with a fox emoji, with fans speculating as to what this could mean or refer to. 

Aimee posted a stunning selfie in July 2024 with Walton commenting: ‘A natural born [fox emoji] inside and out.’

On another of her posts, he wrote: ‘You are the brightest light in every room. A human’s human. Miss you’ along with two fox emojis. 

On another post, he wrote: ‘Next level this is. I could watch you all day. So excited to watch.’ 

Fans have speculated the fox emoji – which Aimee Lou also used in now vanished comments on Walton’s posts – is an ‘in-joke’ between the pair with a hidden meaning.

The fox emoji is also often used to indicate someone has done something sly, or clever – or to say someone is ‘foxy’ and has sex appeal. 

In an HBO Max video where Aimee Lou and Walton answer ‘getting to know the cast’ questions, they are both asked what animal they would be if they were reincarnated. Both actors replied they would be a fox, and that the animal truly represented who they are.

Then, at the February premiere of The White Lotus, Aimee Lou continued the ‘in-joke’ by wearing a custom made Burberry gown covered with a fox motif. 

Several online gossip sites have posted blind items purported to be about the pair which has fuelled speculation of a falling out. 

Now, Reddit, TikTok, and X are full of threads dedicated to theories about why the pair may have had a behind-the-scenes falling-out.

One user shared on Reddit: ‘I feel like no one is talking about the falling out of them?

‘They unfollowed each other on Insta a couple weeks ago, Walton posts White Lotus stuff and tags everyone in the photos except Aimee Lou Wood, posts a whole tribute to White Lotus and still doesn’t tag her, posts tons of pictures of her on his story in a commemorative tribute to the show. What happened?’

Another X user wrote in amazement: ‘Aimee Lou Wood follows 5,160 people on instagram and none of them are Walton Goggins…

On X, one viewer weighed in on an album of behind-the-scenes photos Walton had posted to Instagram.

‘Walton Goggins not tagging Aimee but tagging everyone else… WHAT HAPPENED,’ they wrote.

Particularly perplexing to some fans was how Walton had apparently posted a sweet — and extensive — set of photos of himself and Aimee to his Instagram Stories, set to the soundtrack of a famous break up song. 

‘Obsessed with Walton Goggins posting an 18 slide instagram story of photos of him and Aimee Lou Wood set to Silver Springs by Fleetwood Mac….’ one X user wrote in astonishment.

Walton has been married to wife Nadia Conners since 2001 and the couple are parents to 14-year-old son Augustus.     

The actor’s family joined him in Thailand for some of filming and were seen in a beach snap with him and the rest of the cast. 

Whilst Walton and Aimee have not spoken about any strife in their offscreen relationship, other cast members have hinted at discord during the seven month shoot in Thailand. 

Jason Isaacs who plays trouble family patriarch Tim Ratliff, has been the most outspoken, admitting the experience of filming White Lotus was ‘a cross between summer camp and Lord of the Flies but in a gilded cage’. 

‘Some people got very close, there were friendships that were made and friendships that were lost,’ he told Vulture. ‘They say in the show, ‘What happens in Thailand stays in Thailand,’ but there’s an off-screen White Lotus as well, with fewer deaths but just as much drama.’

Refusing to name names, Jason continued: ‘I became very close to some people and less close to others, but we still all had that experience together and there’s a certain level of discretion required.’

The British actor was asked about his intriguing comments in another interview with The New York Times, published this week, and he reiterated that the shoot ‘wasn’t entirely blissful.’

‘Obviously people formed friendships, but we weren’t one great big homogenous happy family. It was a large group of people away from home, unanchored from their normal lives. I’m not going to break ranks and say who did what to whom, but it certainly wasn’t a holiday.’

Aimee Lou herself has spoken about her difficulties on set, calling the experience ‘claustrophobic’ and a ‘Truman Show social experiment.’

The Brit actress admitted the intensity was caused by ‘the lack of distance’ between playing Chelsea and clocking off once she wrapped her scenes. 

‘Normally when you wrap, you go home. With this, you wrap and walk five steps to your room. You’re living where you’re filming. It is the Truman Show. It starts to feel like that – [you start to question if] anything is real? Everything starts to feel like a set,’ she said.

She continued: ‘I understand why the performances in the previous two seasons are so [good] because the lines get very blurred and it all gets a bit claustrophobic, so you have to really rely on each other to keep sane. Is it a bit like Big Brother [but with] all these Hollywood actors. It feels so odd.’

Aimee Lou formed close friendships with some of the cast, most notably Leslie Bibb, who she shared a room with and travelled with during breaks from filming. 

Whilst she did her best to have some social life away from the intense filming schedule, Walton took a different, more method, approach to the shoot.  

Speaking on the show’s compantion podcast, the actor said he isolated himself on set, thanks in part to his character. 

‘Showing up to work every day with 18 people and a green room that’s full of chairs of 18 people that are in a much different place emotionally than I am at the beginning of the story was very difficult… More often than not, my chair is separate.’

‘I sit on my own. I do my own thing… But I just couldn’t, I couldn’t be around them. They didn’t understand why I was there. This guy is isolated… And that wasn’t any fun, you know, to separate yourself from a group in that way. That was really, really challenging.’

Whilst Walton and Aimee have not spoken about any strife in their offscreen relationship, other cast members have hinted at discord during the seven month shoot in Thailand

Recalling a day off with the rest of the cast, Walton explained how Aimee didn’t want to be a part of his ‘negative’ energy away from filming, choosing instead to hang out with her younger cast mates.    

‘We were all on this boat, and I just had such anxiety about getting on this boat because there’s nowhere for me to hide. I’m a claustrophobic person by nature, and Rick is a claustrophobic person.’

‘And so I just camped out on the front of this boat. The view was incredible, and I just filled it full of negative energy, so that no one wanted to be around me’.

‘At one point, Aimee, not being mean or anything, leaned over and just said, ‘you know, you’re no fun. I want to be with them’, meaning Patrick and the other characters, and and I, I was like, thank you, God. Thank you for saying that, you know, because that’s exactly how I want you to feel.’
