Lukas Gage vows to keep his next relationship a "little more quiet"
The 30-year-old actor married 42-year-old hairstylist Chris Appleton in April 2023 after seven months of dating, and the former couple's wedding was officiated by 44-year-old media personality Kim Kardashian and aired on her reality show The Kardashians
7 October 2025
And Lukas now thinks his love life should not be an "exhibition for the world".
The White Lotus star added to UsWeekly: "I think some things should be kept for you and be a little more personal.
"And yeah, I just think there's some things [that] should be sacred, and that's OK that I wasn't - I was very in people's faces in my last relationship.
"Maybe for the next one, we'll just keep it a little more quiet."
Gage - who recalls his short-lived marriage to Chris in his new memoir I Wrote This for Attention - also admitted he has no regrets about making a lot of his private life public.
The Road House actor - who will "keep it more low-key on the second marriage" - explained: "You have to [laugh].
"I think that's a coping mechanism. And also, like, some crazy s*** happens, but it's also not that crazy - it's universal.
"Like, people can connect with some of this dark stuff that has happened to me. And I think, you know, I made light of it."
Gage continued: "I always have humility with all things in my life, but, in reality, like that moment, there was, you know, there was a trial and error with medications that I was on and being misdiagnosed.
"What comes with that, sometimes, is a manic, hyper mania going on. And yeah, it was a very impulsive, crazy time.
"But suddenly, when I put things into perspective and I got on the right dosage, and I, you know, got my mind clear, it just made sense that I made some of the decisions that I made, and they weren't great, but, like I said earlier - no regrets, because maybe I wouldn't have figured it out."
Gage recently said he has "no regrets" about marrying Chris, and he learnt a lot from their marriage.
Appearing on a recent episode of the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, host Amanda Hirsch asked Lukas: "Do you sometimes wish that you hadn't..."
He chimed in: "Gotten married on The Kardashians? Yeah, but no regrets. Hashtag no regrets for real.
"Look, I learned so much about it."
