Tanya McQuoid (The heiress adrift) is a character in The White Lotus, part of Hawaii Guests (S1). Tanya McQuoid arrives at the White Lotus Maui carrying her mother's ashes and a lifetime of expensively unaddressed need — an heiress so lonely she hires intimacy by the hour and so wounded she can't tell kindness from service.
