White – who stars in the Hulu show with Grace Van Patten – just opened up about his family life on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast

The third and final season of Hulu’s twisted romance drama Tell Me Lies has ended with an explosive finale in which, instead of driving off into the sunset, Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten) is abandoned at a gas station by her villainous love interest, Stephen DeMarco (Jackson White).

Van Patten told Teen Vogue that Stephen’s final manipulation “forces Lucy to really re-evaluate herself and how she’s been living her life”. As for Stephen’s fate, White joked, “He probably just drives off into a ditch by accident after he leaves that gas station. I think that’s what everybody would want, right?”

In real life, both actors are happily dating. During an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, White likened their romance to that of his mother Katey Sagal and stepfather Kurt Sutter, who were co-stars in Sons of Anarchy, which the latter created. Sagal – who shares White and his elder sister Sarah Grace with her late ex-husband, drummer and actor Jack White – appeared in Tell Me Lies as Stephen’s mother.
