3. Lukas Gage Talks About Romance
Though neither Gage nor Appleton has spoken publicly about their alleged romance, the White Lotus star did comment on dating in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
When asked about "having faith" in things happening for him in life, Gage said: "I do think everything works out the way it's supposed to, but I wasn't always able to see that. I'm getting better at it every year. The older I get, the more I realize I have no control over anything.
"It's kind of like dating: when you're seeking a partner, you never find somebody. People can feel that you're trying too hard."
Gage added: "I think the best thing to do in this industry is to build a full life outside of your work and have your work be just a part of that life. Like, this is an accessory to my happiness, not the source of my happiness."
