The White Lotus characters by their reproductive rights stance
White Lotus Season 3 gave us another round of gorgeous views, chaotic family dynamics, and uncomfortable dinner conversations — so naturally, we started wondering: where would these characters stand on reproductive rights?
From low-key allies to covert anti-abortion donors, here’s how we imagine each of the White Lotus characters aligns when it comes to supporting access to abortion and reproductive healthcare.
Valentin – Arnas Fedaravičius
Says all the right things to make you think he supports reproductive healthcare, especially when trying to impress someone hot. Deep down, he believes abortion is wrong… mostly because his bro said so on a men’s rights podcast.
Timothy Ratliff – Jason Isaacs
His corporate background and obsession with “family values” scream conservative. He’s got a perfectly rehearsed “I respect all sides” speech, but donates to anti-abortion PACs behind closed doors.
Victoria Ratliff – Parker Posey
Insists she’s all about “traditional values,” and the word abortion makes her clutch her pearls. But if Piper needed one? She’d book the appointment herself. “Piper nooooo, don’t have a baby with that Buddhist man!”
Rick Hatchett – Walton Goggins
Calls abortion a “complicated issue,” but doesn’t really care unless it affects him. “What if my mother had aborted me?” is something he’s said unironically.
Gary (Greg Hunt) – Jon Gries
Would never bring it up, but thinks people should “just do what they want” — as long as it’s quiet, discreet, and doesn’t disrupt his business empire. Definitely has a “No politics at the dinner table” rule.
Sritala Hollinger – Lek Patravadi
Keeps it neutral for the cameras. Privately pro-choice, but is way too savvy to engage in political discourse. Her public image may lead her to maintain a neutral stance, but she does write generous checks.
Saxon Ratliff – Patrick Schwarzenegger
Has absolutely paid for an abortion before and thinks that alone makes him a feminist. Says “It’s not my place to decide,” but also thinks “reproductive justice” is a band name.
Kate Bohr – Leslie Bibb
Her stance completely depends on who is asking. Supports abortion in theory, but only when nobody in her HOA can hear her say it. She’s one awkward conversation away from switching topics to brunch.
Lochlan Ratliff – Sam Nivola
Claims to be pro-choice because “duh, it’s 2025,” but hasn’t actually thought about it beyond that. Tags along with his sister to rallies, but still giggles at the word “uterus.”
Jaclyn Lemon – Michelle Monaghan
Her Hollywood connections and progressive circles likely make her supportive of reproductive rights, but says stigmatizing things like “Nobody _wants_ an abortion.” Still, she’s always good for a donation and a signature.
Gaitok – Tayme Thapthimthong
Firm believer in bodily autonomy, but prefers to remain uninvolved. Yet he would absolutely drive you to your appointment and bring your favorite snacks if you asked for help.
Piper Ratliff – Sarah Catherine Hook
She’s loudly pro-abortion on campus, but is still figuring out how to push back on her family’s “respectability” politics. Totally posts all the right infographics on Instagram.
Laurie Duffy – Carrie Coon
Fiercely pro-choice and not afraid to say it. Got into a heated argument at a dinner party about abortion bans in the South — and won. The group chat still hasn’t recovered.
Chelsea – Aimee Lou Wood
Believes in empowering people to make informed choices about their bodies. She’s read [_The Turnaway Study_](https://www.ansirh.org/research/ongoing/turnaway-study), supports local abortion funds, and recommends [ineedana.com](http://ineedana.com/) like it’s a skincare brand.
Belinda Lindsey – Natasha Rothwell
Her dedication to personal well-being makes her a strong advocate for reproductive rights. Fully understands how wealth and power shape access to reproductive care, because she’s lived it. Her support is deep, personal, and unapologetic.
Pornchai – Dom Hetrakul
Pro-abortion king! Knows what reproductive justice means and believes it’s up to the person to decide what’s best for them. Fierce supporter of independent abortion providers. We stan.
TL;DR: Reproductive rights aren’t a plot twist, they’re essential lifesaving healthcare. Whether you’re surrounded by supportive allies or navigating a tsunami of judgment from a Victoria Ratliff in White Lotus, you deserve access to abortion care that’s safe, legal, and compassionate.
