3 days ago 7

If you remember, the immensely likable housewife Daphne Sullivan (Meghann) and the mysteriously blistery atrocious lad Jack (Leo) were certified scene-stealers of the award-winning Season 2 of The White Lotus connected HBO Max.

So, erstwhile quality dropped that the 2 actors (who played characters that ne'er truly interacted successful the existent show) were dating successful existent life, it rocked my world.

During the Jan. 28 occurrence of 1 of my favourite podcasts, Podcrushed with Penn Badgley, Nava Kavelin, and Sophie Ansari, The Bold Type histrion opened up astir the juicy details of her narration with Leo, and now, I tin slumber amended astatine night.

Penn, who is starring successful the upcoming drama You Deserve Each Other with Meghann, was conscionable arsenic anxious to yet get retired each the deets astir her serendipitous costar romance connected the podcast.

"Leo's quality doesn't travel successful until Episode 3, I think. So, I was determination earlier him for a bit," Meghann explained. "And erstwhile helium got there, I met, I saw him successful similar the small country wherever we would person luncheon and I gave him my number, due to the fact that I was like, 'Well, you know, you're caller here.' I wholly cognize however it is to amusement up precocious to something. It sucks."

"It's similar everyone's been astatine campy without you erstwhile they've already made friends," she said, expressing that it would marque her consciousness rather vulnerable.

"So I genuinely was conscionable wanting to scope retired arsenic a person and accidental like, you know, I don't privation you to beryllium lonely oregon consciousness similar you don't acceptable in.

"Other than that, we weren't successful immoderate worldly unneurotic oregon anything, truthful we benignant of conscionable became friends, and that was... however it happened," she added.

If you're a steadfast believer successful destiny, similar me, Meghann was astir connected Season 1 of White Lotus and astir apt would've ne'er had the accidental to conscionable Leo connected set. "When I archetypal got White Lotus, I was astir connected the archetypal season, and past I wasn't, and I was truthful gutted, and past evidently the 2nd play was similar due to the fact that the archetypal play had done truthful good [it] felt similar determination was this truly unthinkable benignant of expectation," she said.

"I was truthful tense erstwhile I archetypal got there, and past arsenic soon arsenic we benignant of started going, I was like, oh, I really deliberation I'm truthful overmuch person to this quality successful the play than I would've been to the quality that I was up for the archetypal season. And I conscionable thought what an unthinkable travel to spell on, and realized there's a crushed definite things don't happen, oregon they do, but not till later. Like I'm ever grateful for, like, the timing," she said.

Whew, present I'm going to slumber similar a babe knowing that at least 1 mates had a blessed ending astatine that edifice successful Italy from Season 2 of The White Lotus. (And it's a existent one, too!)
