Portia is unlike any of the other guests at White Lotus — she's a young, just-out-of-college 20-something-year-old assistant accompanying her boss, Tanya, on holiday. She's clearly Gen Z, from her bucket hat down to her colourful eyeshadow moments and nose ring. "That was important, just to make her seem a lot younger than everybody else," says Hickey. "She's not married, she's still trying to figure things out."
Though not intentionally at first, "she looks like Urban Outfitters."
