Walton Goggins Tearfully Explains Why He Unfollowed Aimee Lou Wood on Instagram

by

As an ardent admirer, I’m thrilled to share that Walton Goggins has finally shed light on the intriguing enigma of our times: The reason behind the actor’s decision to unfollow his “White Lotus” season three co-star, Aimee Lou Wood, on Instagram following the finale.

Indeed, Goggins offers a comprehensive explanation behind his actions, leaving it up to readers to decide if there’s more to uncover. The pair have faced speculation about their disagreements, while their fellow cast member, Jason Isaacs, has suggested underlying on-set issues without explicitly naming parties involved. In an interview with The Guardian, he stated, “There were shifting alliances, romances that started and ended, friendships that formed and dissolved. It was a long stretch for people to be away from their families, with an open bar and the freedom Thailand offers.

As the awards season kicks off, Goggins and Wood appear set to address any rumors or speculations that may have arisen. In a fresh chat with Variety, they directly addressed the Instagram drama.

Initially, they hugged for about 30 seconds (as someone apparently kept track of), and throughout their shared conversation, they often intertwined hands and showered each other with compliments. For instance, Goggins expressed to her, “You have the most radiant smile I’ve ever seen.

Goggins clarified, ‘There’s no dispute here.’ He continued, ‘I have an intense, profound affection for this woman. To me, she’s Goldie Hawn, Meg Ryan – extraordinary in every way and capable of achieving anything. Keep an eye out, as you’ll witness the next 20 years of her journey unfold… She embodies love, and I know that I am cherished by her just as deeply.’

When it comes to that game known as “The Unfollowing,” I can’t help but roll my eyes at the constant fixation on Instagram. Honestly, it’s not even on our radar. We couldn’t care less about Instagram… Eventually, I found myself stepping back and observing, as people seemed to create a storm in a teacup from nothing at all.

Goggins expressed his readiness to “wrap things up.” He admitted that, when moving on from projects, he usually gives a final and decisive farewell. For instance, after leaving the series ‘Justified‘, he didn’t speak with [Timothy Olyphant] for nearly two years. He has done this with every project he has been involved in.

Later, Goggins referenced his personal experiences in Thailand, a topic he’s talked about before. Initially, the actor went to this country while mourning the suicide of his wife in 2004. Interestingly, his role on ‘White Lotus’ brought him back to the exact same place.

As a gamer, I can relate to this situation. My emotional release during this journey deviated from others because of my personal connection to this world. The memories I shared with Wood and me were deeply etched, and the bond we formed was extraordinary.

When it came time to bid farewell to Rick and Chelsea, it wasn’t easy for me. I knew that saying goodbye would be a lengthy process, one that I needed to navigate at my own pace. So, I shared my feelings with her, explaining, “This is what I have to do.” She was incredibly understanding and supportive of my choice.

Goggins stated: “I had to distance myself from everyone. I haven’t spoken to anyone at all. It was simply too much for me to bear. Feel free to judge if you wish, but it doesn’t matter to me what your thoughts are. This is my way of coping. Rick and Chelsea are incredibly important to me, and I needed this time to deal with everything on my own.

Later on, it’s said that Goggins resumed following Wood on Instagram. He essentially closed the chapter on their relationship, stating, “It was simply a way for me to bid farewell to this persona, so now Aimee and I can be friends forever.
