If you’re a White Lotus fan like I am, you’re in on a little secret: Season 2’s Leo Woodall is one to watch. After his breakout performance in the hit HBO drama (which also starred the iconic Jennifer Coolidge), he’s been on the ascent. This year, he starred in the lead role of the acclaimed Netflix miniseries, One Day, playing Dexter Mayhew. “Woodall is especially devastating, a tornado of charisma with a permanent yet never smug smirk and a romcom smolder that should send his forbears cowering at the notion,” Proma Khosla writes in IndieWire. Pass me some tissues.

As with any rising hotshot, there are pressing questions I need to know. What is his net worth? (Taylor Swift, Simone Biles, Ali Wong and Trevor Noah’s here for your viewing pleasure.) And, possibly more important: Who is he dating? Well lucky you, today I’m here to answer that question. Here’s everything you need to know about Leo Woodall’s girlfriend, Meghann Fahy.

February 2022: Woodall and Fahy Are Cast in The White Lotus

Woodall started his acting career in television, making a guest appearance in the medical series Holby City in 2019. He also appeared in the short film, Man Down. Woodall’s first feature fill was the Tom Holland-led Cherry in 2021, followed by the Peacock series Vampire Academy. He and Fahy met when the former was cast as Jack in the hit HBO series, The White Lotus, for season 2. Fahy played Daphne Sullivan, a woman vacationing with her husband (Theo James) and another couple.

September 2022: ‘That’s Amore’

Filming for The White Lotus season two began in February 2022 and wrapped in the summer. Shortly after, Woodall posted to his Instagram, sharing a series of instant photos and causal snaps—including several with Fahy.

December 2022: ‘Sizzley Sicily’

In December 2022, Fahy posted a throwback of her own, captioning it “Sizzley Sicily.” The second photo shows Fahy leaning against Woodall as she holds his arm, and the pair appear to be sitting on a cobbled street at dusk while Woodall sips a drink.

January 2023: Fahy Says She Doesn’t ‘Kiss and Tell’

By the beginning of 2023, rumors were abuzz with the two’s supposed romance. When Fahy appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen with co-star and on-screen love interest Theo James, fans asked if she and Woodall were dating.

“Oh, I don’t kiss and tell,” she said. “Come on, guys.”

Cohen fired back, “It would be delicious. We would all love it.”

Fahy replied, “You would? For you I’ll say, ‘sure.’” Cue the audience cheers. Then she followed up with, “I was kidding! You wanted me to say it so I said it.”

Cohen couldn’t help but say, “You’re friends with benefits.”

“We’re friends,” Fahy said.

January 2024: HBO Post Emmys Reception

Fahy may have said she doesn’t “kiss and tell,” but the pair did show and tell. After months of dodging questions, including a NYFW interview in September, where she and Woodall both attended the Ralph Lauren show, the couple were spotted in November 2023 kissing on a rainy day in NYC, where they shopped at Sephora and Zara, per E! News. They also enjoyed lunch at Russ & Daughters.

Then, in January 2024, Woodall and Fahy were photographed dancing together at the HBO post-Emmys reception, where they were joined by other members of The White Lotus cast. In the photo above, Woodall has his arms around Fahy as they mingle with their castmates.

February 2024: Jimmy Kimmel Live!

The next time the pair were spotted was February 8, when Woodall appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! to talk about One Day, how he almost missed the The White Lotus audition and becoming a Swiftie. The photo shows them walking, presumably backstage or on the studio lot.

February 2024: Hard Launch

After Woodall’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! appearance, Fahy made things Instagram official, with a photo of the pair strolling in Boston. She captioned the photo, “😊🍕💙”. Woodall left a comment, writing, “Who is he?!”, which received over 10,000 likes.

March 2024: ‘Leo for President’

On March 5, Woodall shared a series of BTS photos for One Day, including some cute snaps with co-star Ambika Mod. In the comments, Fahy writes, “I’ll say it again Leo for president,” which garnered nearly 3,500 likes.

Woodall is currently filming scenes for Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy in London, per People, with Renée Zellweger, with other projects also in the works. As press tours ramp up, I’m sure there will be plenty of interviewers all too happy to dive into the subject. For now, I’ll be hanging out in the couple’s Instagrams.
