Walton Goggins’ rumored infidelity has dampened his current run of incredible performances on-screen. From starring in the surprise hit and video game adaptation Fallout, to his work on season three of the White Lotus as well as the final season of HBO hit The Righteous Gemstones, Goggins has been on an absolute tear, but most of the discussion around him involves his purported romance with one of his co-stars.

Nadia Conners, Goggins’ wife has clearly been caught up in all the speculation about Walton’s relationship with White Lotus cast mate Aimee Lou Wood and addressed the issue head on in an interview with Hello! Magazine on May 16, 2025. Conners, a director, took the rumours to be an indication of the popularity of the show, and the talented actors that brought them to life:

"It’s odd to see it, but it’s an indication of how much people were invested in the fictional characters. I take it as a sign that he’s become quite popular.”

Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood rumors at a glance

Goggins’ praise of Wood earlier in the year initially kicked off the rumor mill when he compared their offscreen bond to the ones the actors shared in real life. He even went as far as to call themselves “soulmates.” When speaking to PEOPLE in February 2025, Goggins shared:

“We both became enmeshed in each other the way that Rick and Chelsea are. So I think the world of her.”

However, after the finale aired, an episode in which both characters die, the two actors curiously unfollowed each other as the speculation was coming to a head. Matters only worsened for them publicly when they individually took to Instagram to thank their fellow cast members through posts, yet failed to tag one another.

A month later, prior to his scheduled appearance as the weekly host for Saturday Night Live!, Goggins sat down with a journalist for The Times, a UK based publication, and the matter was brought up again. In this instance the reporter was so cavalier with his line of questioning that he wouldn’t relent until Goggins grew visibly upset.

At first when addressing the rumored situation, Goggins simply stated “I’m not gonna have that conversation” before proceeding with the interview. However, the journalist kept prodding about Wood to which Goggins said, "What the f---?" before his publicists abruptly ended the interview.

Interestingly, within a few days of The Times fiasco Goggins and Wood began to follow each other again, seeming to signal that the two have reconciled.
