‘Bridgerton’ Season 3 Is Here—Here’s What the Bridgerton Siblings Are Saying and Whether the Sharmas Are Returning

If you’ve already binge-watched season 2, you’re probably on the hunt for information about Bridgerton season 3 and which Bridgerton siblings will appear in the next installment.

Bridgerton, based on the book series of the same name by Julia Quinn, premiered in December 2020 and became Netflix’s most-watched original series. The show, executive produced by Shonda Rhimes, follows the Bridgerton family, a respected upper-class English family of eight siblings and their widowed mother during the Regency period of England. Each season focuses on a different Bridgerton sibling—Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Gregory, and Hyacinth. Bridgerton season 1 follows Daphne Bridgerton (played by Phoebe Dynevor), the eldest Bridgerton daughter, and her relationship with the Duke of Hastings (aka Simon Bassett), played by Regé-Jean Page. Bridgerton season 2 follows Anthony Bridgerton, Viscount and eldest Bridgerton son, and his relationship with Kate Sharma, the sister of his fiancée, Edwina Sharma. In a 2022 interview with Entertainment Weekly, Jonathan Bailey, who plays Anthony, called the love triangle between Anthony, Kate, and Edinwa “dangerous.” “You can understand why he’s drawn to them both. And they’re both drawn to him. It’s an interesting love triangle; it’s dangerous when it’s siblings. It’s brutal between them in a way that season 1 wasn’t. They’re all animals to each other,” he said. “Edwina and Kate embody his approach to love – one is head, one is heart. The push and pull [illustrates] how intense love can be in a society that is so rigid, where gender roles are so specific, and how those roles can be completely counterproductive to happiness, growth, and love.”

Now that season two has come to an end, viewers are looking forward to Bridgerton season 3. So what is Bridgerton season 3 about, and which Bridgerton books will it be based on? Read on to find out what we know about Bridgerton season 3 and which cast members are expected to return.
