LAST WORD

Walton Goggins’ Wife Finally Addresses Cheating Rumors

She described the speculation as “odd,” but also a sign that her husband has become quite popular.

The wife of White Lotus star Walton Goggins has found herself at the center of countless online rumors since the show’s third season premiere thanks to the on-screen chemistry, and off-screen friendship, between her husband and his co-star Aimee Lou Wood. Now, she is finally speaking out about the speculation. Nadia Conners, who married Goggins in 2011 and shares a son with him, told Hello! that the rumors about an affair were “odd” but also clearly ”an indication of how much people were invested in the fictional characters,“ adding, ”I take it as a sign that he’s become quite popular.” Goggins’ and Wood’s Rick and Chelsea quickly became fan favorite characters before meeting a tragic end in the finale. The pair’s off-screen relationship—which consisted of adoring Instagram posts, followed by the pair unfollowing, then later re-following each other—kept the internet rumor mill working overtime during the duration of the HBO series’ third season.
