We Finally Have An Explanation For 1 Of The White Lotus Season 3's Most Intriguing Mysteries

The Ratliff family in The White Lotus season threeIt might have taken over three months to get here, but we finally have an answer to one of The White Lotus season three’s most perplexing mysteries.Back in episode two of the award-winning satirical comedy-drama’s latest series, there was an awkward exchange between Parker Posey and Leslie Bibb’s characters at breakfast.When Kate introduced herself to Victoria, revealing that they’d spent the weekend together at a baby shower years earlier, the latter totally brushed her off in a curious scene that led some to speculate there could be more to the pair’s prior relationship to be revealed as the series wore on.In the end… this proved not to be the case, with some White Lotus fans curious about why the scene was featured at all – and if there was originally supposed to be more that wound up on the cutting room floor.Parker Posey and Leslie Bibb in The White LotusThis included US comedian Sarah Silverman, who, fortunately, is friends with The White Lotus’ creator Mike White, so was able to ask him herself (in fact, the pair played a couple in the 2003 comedy School Of Rock, which Mike also wrote).During an appearance on Live With Kelly And Mark last week, Sarah revealed: “I loathe doing [this] because I feel like everyone must be asking him. But I did – I emailed him, and I said, ‘What’s up with Leslie Bibb – how come we didn’t find out why Parker Posey iced Leslie Bibb? Why did she pretend not to know her? Is it something you didn’t get to [include], that got cut out, or like, what’s the answer?’.”The Emmy winner’s response? “I was just showing that she’s a bitch.” And fair play, Mike, mission accomplished.After the dramatic events of the season three finale, fans are now speculating over where The White Lotus could be heading next after hit seasons set in Hawaii, Sicily and Thailand.We could be in for a bit of a wait, though, after Mike’s latest unexpected venture was announced last week…MORE WHITE LOTUS:21 Best Behind-The-Scenes Stories From The White Lotus Cast About Their Time On SetWhere Will The White Lotus Be Heading For Season 4?
