Leo Woodallis finally lifting the lid on his super-private relationship withMeghann Fahy.

The actors, whomet on season 2 ofThe White Lotusin 2022, have been together for nearly three years but have rarely spoken out about the nature of their relationship — or how it’s going.

In a new interview withElle UK, though, Woodall, 28, broke that pattern as he revealed that he and Fahy, 34, are “very good at keeping [their relationship] as private as we can,” which is a big deal for them both.

“To me, that’s the only way,” theOne Dayalum said of his and Fahy’s privacy. “You see public relationships all the time slapped all over social media and I can’t imagine that’s any fun.”

In his mind, a relationship “should be a safe space, so I think letting people into it is completely counter-productive.”
