The White Lotus star Michelle Monaghan is now ruling out one season 3 fan theory. Season 3 is currently following the Ratliff family and a trio of long-time friends: Jaclyn (Michelle Monaghan), Laurie (Carrie Coons), and Kate (Leslie Bibb). In every season, the first episode reveals a dead body, indicating that at least one of The White Lotus characters will meet a grisly end. Season 3 is no different, showing a floating dead body after the sound of a flurry of gunshots in the opening moments and leaving them to muse on what’s just happened off-camera.
