Natasha Rothwell has a message for White Lotus fans who have a problem with her character Belinda's decisioning. In an exclusive conversation with PEOPLE at Jim Thompson’s White Lotus Soirée in Los Angeles on April 24, the actress, 44, addressed the bombshell season 3 finale and whether or not there was a possibility Belinda could turn evil. Fans saw Belinda and her son (Nicholas Duvernay) ride off into the sunset after finessing a $5 million check from Greg (Jon Gries) in exchange for keeping quiet about his involvement in his late wife Tanya's (Jennifer Coolidge) murder. Despite Belinda's initial conversations to start a wellness spa with her colleague and love interest, Pornchai (Dom Hetrakul), the season finale saw her renege on their plans after securing her bag.
