Sam Rockwell and Leslie Bibb are definitely one of Hollywood’s more inconspicuous couples.
But since Sam appeared in The White Lotus, he and Leslie have become a hot topic.
So here’s everything you need to know about their sweet 18-year-long relationship.
What is the relationship between Sam Rockwell and Leslie Bibb?
Sam and Leslie are a couple.
They first met in 2007 at Chateau Marmont, a restaurant and hotel located in Los Angeles.
In 2008, Sam and Leslie made their red carpet debut at the CineVegas Honoree Party.
Flashforward to 2025, and the couple are as happy as ever albeit rather private.
Do Sam Rockwell and Leslie Bibb have kids?
No, Sam and Leslie do not have any children.
In a 2007 interview with The Guardian, Sam admitted he has no desire to ever have kids.
“I definitely don’t want to become a parent. It’s not my bag… Children are a lot of work. I have so much respect for parents.”
Who was Sam Rockwell in White Lotus?
As aforementioned, Sam and Leslie’s relationship was thrust into the spotlight when Sam made a cameo in Season 3 of The White Lotus.
Why? Well, Leslie has a major role in that season of the Emmy Award-winning anthology series.
She plays Kate, a woman on vacation with her two friends Lauren and Jaclyn, played by Carrie Coon and Michelle Monaghan respectively.
Sam played Frank, an old friend of Rick’s – played by Walter Goggins – who now lives in Thailand and gave a memorable monologue about sex addiction.
However, Sam and Leslie shared no screen time during Sam’s White Lotus cameo.
In fact, it wasn’t even Leslie’s idea to bring him on the show.
“He was a last minute [addition]. That came in last minute, like maybe two weeks before they were going to film it,” Leslie told CNN.
“I said to them when they offered it to him, I was like, ‘If he doesn’t do it, don’t get mad at me. And [White Lotus creator Mike White]’s like, ‘I’m not going to get mad at you.’”
Despite not sharing the screen this time, the couple have worked together before.
They’ve both appeared in Iron Man 2, F–K, Don Verdean, and The Dark of Night.
