Walton Goggins’ Wife Finally Addresses the Claims He Cheated With His Costar

Walton Goggins delivered an exceptional performance as Rick Hatchett in “The White Lotus” Season 3. His inclusion in the show was praised, and Goggins’ acting skills were highlighted. Still, another less pleasant topic of conversation has been following him: a potential affair with his co-star and onscreen love interest, actress Aimee Lou Wood, who plays the role of his much younger girlfriend, Chelsea.

It is indisputable that the pair has great chemistry and that their characters’ relationship was believable. But is this all it was? Was it just really great acting? Goggins’ wife, Nadia Conners, whom he married in 2011, has finally shared her thoughts on the speculation surrounding her husband and Wood.

Rather than detract from Goggins’ performance in “The White Lotus,” Conners has praised her husband for his acting skills. “It’s odd to see it, but it’s an indication of how much people were invested in the fictional characters,” Conners told Hello! magazine in an interview on May 16 about the rumors surrounding her husband and Wood. “I take it as a sign that he’s become quite popular.”

Conner‘s comments suggest a maturity and security between her and the actor. They also share a teenage son, Augustus Somerset Goggins. Augustus was born on January 1, 2011. In the interview, Conners discussed her struggles with postpartum depression. “It’s still a taboo subject, and the truth is, I did find it hard. I had post-partum [depression], my husband was working long hours, and I volunteered to look after our child without us realising what the long-term effects on me would be,” she said.

But back to Goggins. It is no secret that this role in “The White Lotus” has been a game-changer.

Goggins has been honest about how much his role in “The White Lotus” has meant to him and his career. In an interview with Daily Mail, he confirmed that he cried when he learned he had been cast. “It’s a golden ticket, but more than that, it was just the opportunity to go on a journey that comes from that man’s [White’s] imagination,” he told Daily Mail of working with Mike White. “Things that are interesting to him are interesting to me.”

The actor and the rest of the cast spent months filming the show in Thailand. Goggins said of his work on the project and show’s finale, “I’m so relieved it’s out in the world. It’s been uplifting getting to finally talk to people about it. For the first time in a long time I can exhale. A big exhale. Rick Hatchett was a lot to carry.”
