About Bridgerton Season 3

Part One of Bridgerton Season 3 is adapted from the fourth book, Romancing Mister Bridgerton. It is based on the romantic dynamic between Colin and Penelope, played by Luke Newton and Nicola Coughlan. Featuring the first four episodes, the end was about Colin finally confessing love to Penelope, leading to a passionate moment and advice to marry. But there is a twist in the tale, as Colin is unaware that Penelope is also Lady Whistledown, a secret he will likely discover in the second part.

Part 2 of Bridgerton Season 3 will also explore Eloise’s hatred for Penelope, as she knows the secret that Penelope has been hiding. It will be fun to see how Eloise reacts to Colin, her older brother, falling in love with Penelope, who was once her best friend but is now an enemy. Bridgerton Season 3 Part 2 will hit Netflix on June 13.
