White Lotus star Aimee Lou Wood awkwardly dodges costar Walton Goggins on Met Gala red carpet amid 'feud'

During the Met Gala red carpet event, Aimee Lou Wood from The White Lotus seemed to deliberately avoid crossing paths with her former co-star Walton Goggins, even though she was seen socializing with another cast member.

The 31-year-old English actress was seen looking stunning in a black-and-white deconstructed suit with a long black train draped to her side.

Her complicated feud with Walton, 53, took another turn over the weekend after fans noticed the two were again following each other on Instagram.

Speculation about a feud between the two arose when fans noticed that Walton and Aimee had unfollowed each other on social media, despite Walton previously expressing admiration for his White Lotus colleague.

Interestingly, Aimee and Walton appeared to have matching black-and-white outfits at the Met Gala, fitting the event’s theme “Tailored for You,” inspired by the Superfine: Tailoring Black Style exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute for Spring 2025.

Aimee was making her debut at the 2025 edition of the Met Gala, which is held on the first Monday in May, in a striking custom Burberry gown. 

The look featured a cropped tuxedo jacket with short, lustrous lapels and a contrasting white button-up shirt with a slim black necktie.

But the long satin skirt was draped under half the jacket, while still leaving a glimpse of her white shirt visible for contrast.

The brunette beauty showcased her toned legs in black stockings thanks to the skirt’s sky-high slit. 

Aimee’s outfit was the creation of London designer Priya Ahluwalia, according to Vogue.

Her look featured several playful touches, including rumpled white mid-calf socks that contrasted with her pointy-toed black strapped heels, as well as red, white and cream-colored carnations decorating the otherwise reserved shoes.

Aimee reportedly wore Cartier diamonds, and she sparkled with dangling diamond earrings, a jeweled floral brooch and a thick, diamond-covered ring on her left middle finger. 

Aimee emphasized the androgynous nature of her gender-bending style by tying back her slicked hair while leaving a few stands draped over her forehead dramatically. 

Walton’s Thom Browne–designed ensemble bore a strong resemblance to Aimee’s haute couture look.

He wore a black skit with a long coat, a white shirt and a slender black tie.

The intriguing deconstructed — or pre-constructed — design gave fans a glimpse into the process of tailoring a bespoke suit, as the suit had what looked like the initial stitches on the skirt and jacket that a tailor would create before removing them for the final fitting.

Walton’s jacket had also not been completely sealed up, and the outer layer of the jacket pulled apart from the lining toward the bottom, revealing that layer of canvas that is used inside high-quality tailored suit jackets to help give it shape and structure.

Walton, who was pictured posing on the red carpet with Kerry Washington, has struck up controversy in recent weeks after he and Aimee appeared to have unfollowed each other on Instagram.

It was a shocking change, as he had previously shared several gushing posts complimenting the Sex Education actress for her work with him on the third season of HBO’s The White Lotus. 

He played a tormented man named Rick vacationing at a luxurious White Lotus resort in Thailand, while Aimee played his much younger girlfriend, Chelsea.

The show later revealed that he had chosen to stay at the fictional resort in hopes of killing a man he believed was responsible for the death of his father.

The characters were among the buzziest members of the latest season’s ensemble, but Walton and Aimee puzzlingly kept their distance while promoting the series despite their earlier closeness.

Rumors spread after they were discovered to not be following each other that Walton may have blocked his costar.

Fans based the theory on the fact that previous comments and likes that she had left on his post — when they were still following each other — had apparently disappeared at some point. 

According to the Instagram Help Center, comments and likes from a blocked user are removed from posts, leading fans to think that Walton had opted to distance himself from her for unknown reasons.

However, fans noticed that the two were again following each other days ago, suggesting that they may have worked out their differences.

Despite her still mysterious rumored feud with Walton, Aimee made a show of posing with her fellow White Lotus costar Patrick Schwarzenegger on the red carpet.

He wore an oversize black Balmain suit with pinstripes and a jacket that appeared to be tucked into his baggy trousers. 

Patrick wore a ribbed yellow satin shirt and carried a burgundy leather clutch with a large gold buckle that matched his leather belt.
