Walton Goggins<\/a><\/strong> is having a serious moment, and he\u2019s not wearing much for it.<\/p>\n

Just days before he\u2019s set to appear on “Saturday Night Live”<\/a><\/strong> with Chloe Fineman, Walton Goggins is making headlines for baring it all (again) and leaving fans drooling. And yes, the tiny yellow Speedos are back.<\/p>\n

In a cheeky new promo moment<\/a>, Fineman hilariously sniffed a pair of briefs that appeared to be the exact same swimsuit bottoms Goggins rocked on the cover of Cultured magazine\u2019s April\/May 2025 issue. The move sent the internet into hysterics, with fans calling it a \u201csight gag\u201d that doubled as a thirst trap, thanks to Goggins\u2019 skyrocketing hunk status.<\/p>\n

Goggins showed up looking every bit the Malibu zaddy in a black suit with an unbuttoned dark blue shirt, a gold necklace, and a deep tan that could make the sun jealous. Fineman matched the energy with a beige lace mini dress, coordinating headband, and soft waves that screamed vintage glam.<\/p>\n

But the real star of the show is those infamous Speedos.<\/p>\n

In his Cultured spread, Goggins left very little to the imagination, rocking nothing but the bold yellow briefs and a suede jacket casually left open to flaunt his chiseled chest. He smoldered at the camera, and fans wasted no time losing their minds.<\/p>\n

Some of the internet\u2019s thirstiest reactions included one fan who said, \u201cStraight man here and holy hell I’m into it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another wrote, \u201cGoonin for Goggins\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHelp I\u2019m pregnant,” a third joked.<\/p>\n

\u201cWalton showing us his Goggins,” someone else shared.<\/p>\n

\u201cYellow budgie smugglers were not on my bingo card for 2025, but here we are, and he still looks incredible!\u201d ” another fan wrote.<\/p>\n

Even “The White Lotus”<\/a><\/strong> official account got in on the action, cheekily commenting: \u201cSome guests leave their mark.\u201d<\/p>\n

But not everything\u2019s sunshine and Speedos in Goggins\u2019 world.<\/p>\n

‘White Lotus’ Co-Stars Unfollow Each Other\"Amiee<\/p>\n

Rumors are swirling about a behind-the-scenes feud between Goggins and “White Lotus” co-star Aimee Lou Wood<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

While the two sizzled on screen during their steamy scenes in Thailand, eagle-eyed fans noticed they\u2019ve since unfollowed, and possibly even blocked, each other on social media.<\/p>\n

Fueling the speculation, Wood posted fan art of her and Goggins from the show to her Instagram Stories on Thursday, leading some to wonder if the icy tension is thawing or if she\u2019s just reminiscing about what could have been.<\/p>\n

Just days after social media detectives clocked that the co-stars had unfollowed each other online, Goggins raised eyebrows for seemingly mocking a “Saturday Night Live” sketch that took a jab at Wood.<\/p>\n

The “Justified” actor called the “SNL” spoof \u201csmashing,\u201d a comment that\u2019s only fueling rumors of a behind-the-scenes rift between him and Wood following their time filming the hit HBO Max series.<\/p>\n

As The Blast reported, “SNL” aired a “White Lotus”-inspired sketch on April 12<\/a>, with comedian Sarah Sherman portraying Wood\u2019s character, Chelsea. But the segment went full throttle into parody, swapping cleverness for cartoonish chaos.<\/p>\n

Sherman donned oversized fake teeth, delivered a wildly exaggerated British accent, and cracked lines like: \u201cFluoride? What\u2019s that?\u201d<\/p>\n

Fans were divided, but one person who definitely wasn\u2019t laughing? Aimee Lou Wood.<\/p>\n

The 31-year-old “Sex Education” alum didn\u2019t mince words, posting to her Instagram Stories<\/a>: \u201cI did find the \u2018SNL\u2019 thing mean and unfunny xo. (Felt righteous, might delete later).\u201d<\/p>\n

She continued, \u201cYes, take the piss for sure, that\u2019s what the show is about, but there must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way?\u201d<\/p>\n

Goggins Shuts Down Question About Aimee Lou Wood Feud Mid-Interview\"Walton<\/p>\n

But it doesn’t end there.<\/p>\n

Amid the swirling rumors of a falling out, things got real awkward during a recent interview with The Times UK<\/a>. When journalist Ed Potton brought up the rumors, he warned readers that \u201cthe interview will go off the rails\u201d \u2014 and it definitely did.<\/p>\n

Midway through the chat, Potton asked Goggins point-blank if he and Wood had \u201cfallen out,\u201d prompting a tense exchange.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not gonna have that conversation,\u201d Goggins replied bluntly.<\/p>\n

According to the article, both of the actor\u2019s publicists, who were in the room during the interview, immediately stepped in. One quickly shut it down with a firm, \u201cWe\u2019re not going there, thank you,\u201d effectively ending the line of questioning.<\/p>\n

Neither Goggins nor Wood has publicly addressed the speculation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Walton Goggins is having a serious moment, and he\u2019s not wearing much for it.
