White Lotus’ Walton Goggins Ends Interview After Being Asked About Aimee Lou Wood Feud
Jason Isaacs & Emma Hewitt
While Jason Isaacs‘ character Timothy Ratliff is married to Parker Posey‘s Victoria Ratliff on The White Lotus, his wife IRL is Emma Hewitt.
“Without her,” he wrote in 2020’s The Big Issue, “there is no me that I recognize or would want to know.”
Jason met the former documentary filmmaker at the University of London’s Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in the ’80s. At this point, he was battling what he called a “decades-long love affair with drugs,” which ended in 1998 when he became sober.
“When I got clean, I remember my wife saying, OK, at last, we can finally buy a home and we can have kids and get on with our lives,” Jason added. “And I said, actually, darling, I’ve just met you. What are you talking about? She said, we’ve been together for 10 years! I know, I said, and I’m really sorry, but I feel like I’ve just been born, and we have to date and get to know each other.”
When he later asked “why she’d want to be with someone who was just out of their head the entire time,” he continued, she said, “she always loved who I really was and who I really could be.”
The couple wed in 2001 and welcomed daughters Lily and Ruby.
“She decided she was going to give up a very successful career and follow me around and live, with nothing to do, in these far-flung places, and not really feel like part of the crew, in order to get pregnant,” Jason told The Guardian in 2008. “It took us a while and we had IVF, which worked first time for us both times.”
