As allude to via the geographic expedition of Laurie , Kate could be a possible dupe inThe White Lotusseason 3 .

4Jaclyn
Played By Michelle Monaghan
Out of the terzetto of Laurie , Kate , and Jaclyn , it is the latter who is the most likely to end up asThe White Lotusseason 3 ’s victim . The reason for this , again , stems from wealth and privilege , with Jaclyn confirmed as a famous actress . With such a chase behind her and the undoubted financial gain this brings her , it would not be a surprise to see one of the other unhinged White Lotus Guest focus on her as a murder victimas they corkscrew throughout season 3 for their own avaritia .
3Sritala
Played By Lek Patravadi
The owner of Thailand ’s White Lotus is Sritala , who seems accessible and skillful enough throughoutThe White Lotusseason 3 , sequence 1 . While this makes her seem like an unlikely slaying dupe , she is the married woman of Jim Hollinger , the topic of Rick ’s dark revenge .

Sritala ’s last could be a tragic twist in the tale …

2Belinda
Played By Natasha Rothwell
Belinda being so high on this list of likely victim inThe White Lotusseason 3 is for two reasonableness : her connexion to the blink - forward conniption and her history in the show . commence with the latter , Belinda is one of the very few eccentric inThe White Lotusseason 3 to have been in the show before . Belinda was part ofThe White Lotusseason 1 ’s cast as a massage healer at the titulary hotel ’s Hawaii branch . hand that one dupe ofThe White Lotusseason 3 was the returning Tanya , Belinda could confront a exchangeable fate .
Secondly , Belinda is the only fictional character on this lean to have a direct connection to the flash - forward view in whichThe White Lotusseason 3 ’s victim was shown . In time of year 3 , instalment 1 , Belinda mentions that her Logos , Zion , will be come to visit and stay with her . In the flash - forward sequence , it is Zion who find the dead body after the gunshot echo out throughout the White Lotus . If Belinda is the victim , this connection - and Belinda ’s history - would provideThe White Lotusseason 3 with more striking and aroused heft than any other possible dupe .
1Jim Hollinger
Played By Scott Glenn
The most probable victim ofThe White Lotusseason 3 , at least so far , is Jim Hollinger . Ironically , Jim is the only reference on this leaning who is yet to physically appear inThe White Lotusseason 3 , but he was tease as the man whom Rick vow revenge against . Jim and Rick clearly have a history , with Rick ’s unbalanced nature potentially spelling peril for Rick .
Furthermore , Jim was mentioned to be sick by Mook , adding another potential way in which he could becomeThe White Lotusseason 3 ’s victim . With other characters only being teased to have antagonistic relations with one another thus far , Jim is the only one to be in a flash confirmed as the subject of someone ’s revenge . For this reason alone , Jim becomes the most likely victim ofThe White Lotusseason 3 , but the develop mystery and type dynamics could certainly interchange this list totally by the season ’s end .
