As the eagerly anticipated third season of “Bridgerton” approaches, Netflix has treated fans to a glimpse of what lies ahead with new teaser images. The show, returning with a two-part season in May, brings back the beloved characters Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) and his wife Kate (Simone Ashley), offering a sneak peek into their married life.
Showrunner Jess Brownell assures viewers a departure from major conflicts, allowing a more playful exploration of the couple’s dynamic. Notably, the sixth Bridgerton sibling, Francesca, has been recast, with Hannah Dodd taking on the role. The upcoming season pivots around Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan), Lady Whistledown herself, navigating the challenges of romance and societal expectations. Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) also takes center stage with a new look and attempts to mend his friendship with Penelope.
Complicating matters are Penelope’s rift with former BFF Eloise (Claudia Jessie) and the growing difficulty of concealing her alter ego. The first four episodes of “Bridgerton” Season 3 premiere on May 16, followed by the second half on June 13, promising a delightful blend of romance, intrigue, and the vibrant Regency-era world. Stay tuned for an immersive journey into the Bridgerton universe!
