Aubrey Plaza’s Ethnicity in The White Lotus Explained
There’s a short scene between Aubrey Plaza’s character, Harper, and her husband in the premiere episode where she comments that they’re Cameron and Daphne’s “white-passing”, “diverse friends”. For viewers who aren’t necessarily familiar with Plaza herself, this comment might seem a little confusing especially since her ethnicity isn’t immediately obvious just from a first glance. Aubrey Plaza is actually of Puerto Rican descent; her father is Puerto Rican, and her mother is of Irish and English descent. Plaza has also mentioned that she has Taino ancestry as well –an indigenous people of the Caribbean. With all that in mind, it makes complete sense for Harper to make the observation that she and her husband Ethan, played by Will Sharpe who is half-Japanese, are basically the “diverse” friends of the Caucasian couple, Cameron and Daphne. That’s all you need to know about what Aubrey Plaza’s ethnicity is in The White Lotus.
