The White Lotus Couples EXPLAINED by Psychology

In this deep dive, we use attachment theory to analyze the complicated (and often chaotic) relationships in HBO’s White Lotus — from Season 1’s toxic honeymooners to Season 2’s power-playing couples and a sneak peek at the drama in Season 3.

We explore how avoidant, anxious, and secure attachment styles show up in characters like Rachel, Shane, Tanya, Ethan, Harper, Daphne, and more. Whether you’re a psych nerd, a White Lotus superfan, or just fascinated by dysfunctional dynamics, this video breaks down what’s going on beneath the surface of these relationships — and what it says about us as viewers.
