In a rare and affectionate public display, actor Walton Goggins and his wife, director Nadia Conners, graced the red carpet at the GQ Men Of The Year Awards in Madrid this Wednesday.
A Radiant Red Carpet Appearance
The couple, who famously keep their private life out of the spotlight, were a picture of marital bliss. The White Lotus star, 54, was seen wrapping his arm lovingly around his wife before leaning in to give her a kiss on the lips. Nadia Conners, 55, looked radiant in a sophisticated beige sheer dress that elegantly highlighted her figure.
Her ensemble was perfectly complemented by a pair of gold open-toe heels and striking gold jewellery, including a necklace and matching earrings. Walton, for his part, cut a dapper figure in a classic black suit, which he paired with matching shoes and a crisp white shirt.
Addressing the Rumours
The loved-up appearance comes after Nadia recently addressed speculation surrounding her husband's relationship with his White Lotus co-star, Aimee Lou Wood. The actor and the British-born actress, 31, portrayed an age-gap couple in the hit HBO series' third season, a pairing that ended tragically in the finale.
Their compelling on-screen chemistry and friendly social media interactions earlier this year sparked questions about their off-camera dynamic, with some rumours even suggesting a feud. In a recent interview with Hello! Magazine, Nadia Conners offered her perspective on the romance rumours.
'It's odd to see it, but it's an indication of how much people were invested in the fictional characters,' the director expressed. She added, 'I take it as a sign that he's become quite popular,' gracefully brushing aside the speculation.
A Lasting Partnership On and Off Screen
Following the season finale, both Walton and Aimee Lou took to social media to reflect on their intense work together. Aimee Lou shared a black-and-white photo of the pair with the caption, 'The perfect storm.'
Walton Goggins posted a lengthy, heartfelt tribute on his own profile, describing their characters' journey as a 'love story' hindered by trauma. He wrote, 'Thank you Aimee Lou for being my partner… a journey I will never forget,' clearly signalling a deep professional respect and closing the door on any rumours of discord.
Walton and Nadia have been married since 2011 and are parents to a 14-year-old son, Augustus. Their rare and tender appearance in Madrid serves as a strong testament to their enduring partnership away from the Hollywood glare.
