Walton’s Personal Experience In Thailand
Walton Goggins then shared a personal story about his connection to Thailand, where The White Lotus season 3 was filmed. He first visited the country in 2004 while he was grieving his wife’s suicide. The shooting for the show coincidentally brought him back to the same exact location. He talked about how his experience filming was different from the rest of the cast members due to his previous history. Walton tearfully explained that he and Aimee got very close during filming. He needed time to process and say goodbye to their characters, Rick and Chelsea. Aimee understood his feelings and was very supportive. Unfollowing Aimee might be the actor’s way of saying goodbye to The White Lotus character.
After this, Walton picked up his phone and refollowed Aimee Lou Wood. While doing this, he said this was just a part of him saying goodbye to the characters, and now they both will be friends forever.
