Learn About Her Parents, Siblings & More – Hollywood Life

Aimee Lou Wood made a name for herself on television. With popular roles on Sex Education and The White Lotus, the English actress paved her way to success, but she wouldn’t have gotten there without her amazing family. After her parents raised Aimee in Greater Manchester, England, she went on to find huge success in film.

In the season 3 finale of The White Lotus (warning: spoilers ahead), Aimee’s character, Chelsea, dies in Rick’s arms after being shot. Fans couldn’t bear to watch their love story crumble once Rick was fatally shot, giving him and Chelsea a heartbreaking send-off.

Off screen, Aimee has been equally open about her personal journey. In Harper’s Bazaar UK, Aimee opened up about how playing Chelsea, her White Lotus character, blurred the line between acting and identity. “It’s not about whether Aimee wants to show her body or not — Chelsea does,” she explained, adding that embodying the role helped her confront her long-standing struggles with body dysmorphia and self-criticism.
