But now, White revealed he’s starting to have second thoughts about killing off the fan favorite—especially because of his relationship with the actress in the first place.
“Yesterday, I went over and watched the show alone with Jennifer,” he explained. “At one point, I was kind of laughing and I looked over at her, and she was so sad for Tanya. In that moment, I was like, ‘Oh, this is the end for me and Jennifer.’ And Jennifer’s the reason I did White Lotus in the first place, because I just wanted to write something for her and I just adore her. So it’s sad. I didn’t realize it until yesterday, but now I am sad. It’s going to be hard to do it without her.”
Season three of The White Lotus has been confirmed, but in the meantime, you can catch up on the first two seasons, now streaming on HBO Max. Keep scrolling to read more about the most shocking TV deaths in recent history.
