Meghann Fahy Opens Up About Season Two Of The White Lotus With InStyle

Meghann Fahy sat down with InStyle to chat about the new season of The White Lotus. Meghann plays Daphne Sullivan, stay-at-home mom visiting Italy with her husband, Cameron, who is played by Theo James. Highlights from her interview are below.

On bringing a little bit of herself to roles: “I think that I bring a lot of myself [to my roles]. I definitely did to Sutton [The Bold Type] and Daphne, because I can’t help it, honestly. I think the lightness that those two women offer to the people that are around them that they love is really similar.”

On being influenced by mommy influencers for Daphne: “I had a very specific vision for her going into the role. You see it on Instagram all the time: these gorgeous women who have four children who are all really well-dressed and they’re always wearing these beautiful, flowy, colorful dresses and hats, and you’re like, ‘What is that? I want to dive into that picture!’ I just wanted Daphne’s vibe to be that.”

On building a chemistry with Theo James: “We had a couple of dinners when I first got there to just get to know each other as people. Because the writing is so good, but also because Theo is a really good partner, and he’s really playful and open. I feel really lucky for that because it’s not always the case and it makes things so much more fun.”
