**Warning: Spoilers Ahead
Dearest gentle reader, the ton is abuzz as the wallflower finally unveils herself in the trailer of the much-awaited regency drama Bridgerton. And if you’ve not yet recovered from Kanthony, this social season is about to get scandalous. Back for its third run, the Netflix series has fans pre-maturely swooning as it passes its torch to Penelope Featherington (a.k.a. Lady Whistledown) and dream boat, Colin Bridgerton. As they navigate the throes of their friendship, will they ever get together long enough to see their relationship bloom?
It’s time to unpack some exciting details of this new release. Eep!
Francesca Makes Her Debut
A new Bridgerton is poised for this season’s ‘Diamond’ title as Francesca stuns in her marriage mart debut with Hannah Dodd stepping into the role. Bridger-fans can anticipate that her introduction will be a highlight of the third season, as it sets the stage for the return of the Bridgerton family, including Colin. With the pressure of finding a match of her own, how will Francesca navigate her season?
Kanthony in Marriage Bliss
Kanthony fans, it’s time to see our couple in a new light. Now that they no longer vex each other with hidden feelings, expect to see them in true marital bliss. With the couple living their best lives as Viscount and Viscountess, what else is in store for them this new season—a Kanthony baby, perhaps?
Eloise and Cressida Make an Unlikely Friendship
Peneloise’s hearts shattered when the identity of the tea-spilling Lady Whistledown was discovered last season. Now distant, Eloise seems to find an unlikely companion in resident mean-girl Cressida Cowper. With the budding friendship unwritten in the novels, it appears all is not as it seems. With this unlikely tandem forming, is there hope for Eloise and Pen?
The Polin Glow-up
Only a true Bridgerton fan knows the magic of a main lead glow-up, and this time, we’re witnessing it with Polin. Penelope finally embraces emeralds and Bridgerton blues as she stuns the town with a makeover. But she’s not the only one, as Colin is undoubtedly ‘much sturdier,’ as his brothers say. With the two struggling with their feelings in the new season, being that gorgeous won’t help their cause.
Colin Meet an Unlikely Match
On the topic of Polin, seeing Pen hurt by Colin’s comments last season, Colin needs to up his game to win her back. And what better way to do that than to help her snatch a husband? But what happens when he matches her with someone who could win her heart, a.k.a. new character, Lord Debling? With a new man in the picture, will this ever teach Colin that the real match for Pen is him all along?
With Polin’s palpable chemistry and their transition to lovers, it is indisputable that we will have to wait until May 16 to discover whether friendship is indeed the best foundation for love. Get the carriage ready (wink!) because Bridgerton will stream in two parts only on Netflix.
