Bridgerton season 3

The period drama's first season, which aired in 2020, focused on the relationship between Rege-Jean Page's Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings, and Daphne, the eldest Bridgerton daughter. Anthony, the eldest Bridgerton son, was represented by Jonathan Bailey, and Kate Sharma, portrayed by Simone Ashley, in the second season's love story. The slow-burning enemies-to-lovers plotline in the previous season starring Jonathan Bailey's Anthony and Simone Ashley's Kate Sharma caused a great uproar. A new focus will be placed on Luke Newton's Colin Bridgerton and Nicola Coughlan's Penelope Featherington in the upcoming third season.
