News The White Lotus Just Teased a Closer Connection to Season 1Belinda may have been hoping for a fresh start, but Greg's appearance has brought up more than a few ghosts from her past.By Brynna Arens | March 3, 2025 | | Photo: Fabio Lovino | HBOThis article contains spoilers for episode 3 of The White Lotus.The White Lotus season 3 keeps revealing more and more connections to the first season. From the beginning, weve known that Belinda (Natasha Rothwell) was set to return just as Tanya (Jennifer Coolidge) did in season 2. However, the first episode of season 3 revealed that Belinda isnt the only returning character Greg (John Gries), who now calls himself Gary, has found himself a new name, a new girl, and a new White Lotus to spend his days at. Now that Belinda has recognized him from his time in Maui, it may only be a matter of time before she discovers what happened to Tanya.Earlier in the episode, Belinda confides in her colleague Pornchai (Dom Hetrakul) about Armonds death and how Tanya had promised to fund her plan to start her own spa, but ended up not following through after running off with Greg. She decides to go confront Gary at dinner, but he denies ever being married to Tanya or recognizing Belinda at all. This isnt surprising, its not like hes going to admit hes a con man in front of people hes trying to fool. But even though she leaves the table cordially, Belinda cant shake the fact that she recognizes him.Greg clearly wasnt expecting to find anyone in Thailand that could recognize him, and yet once again he and Belinda find themselves at the same White Lotus resort. When Belinda goes back to her room that night, she hears some creaking nearby, which could very well be Greg trying to spy on her sneakily. It also could just be some monkeys, which the resort seems to have an abundance of.Regardless, Belinda doesnt seem like the type of person to let this go. Greg is the reason that Tanya flaked on helping her. Since Greg is there with Chloe, who is obviously not Tanya, Belinda might try to reach out or look into where Tanya could be. It doesnt seem like she knows that Tanya died the way Greg talked about her death previously, it seems like hes gone to great lengths to cover it up. The White Lotus Sicily has likely done the same, not wanting another mysterious death to tarnish the White Lotus brand.This season of The White Lotus is starting to become even more intertwined with the others than we thought it would be thanks to Greg and Belinda. As much as Belinda may try to move on and focus on learning, Greg is a connection to Maui she wasnt expecting to find here. Seeing him has clearly brought her memories of that time to the surface, and itll be interesting to watch how they both move forward after this encounter.We know how dangerous Greg can be. He literally tried to have Tanya killed. Hopefully Belinda will stay safe and find a way to stop Greg before he can hurt anyone else. The dynamic between Belinda, Tanya, and Greg is now a form of connective tissue across the three seasons. While season 1 didnt really give us a resolution to Belindas side of things aside from her being left to work at the place her friend and coworker died, season 3 just might.
