The fiery romance between Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton on season 3 of Netflix’s hit show Bridgerton has set hearts aflutter. But the on-screen chemistry has sparked a burning question off-screen: are actors Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton, who play beloved characters, a real-life couple?
A friendship that’s on fire on set
Their undeniable chemistry, evident both on and off screen, has fuelled intense speculation among the show’s loyal fanbase. The pair are regularly seen giggling together in interviews, finishing each other’s sentences and playfully teasing each other on social media. It’s no wonder fans are wondering if there’s something deeper than meets the eye.
“We thought it was really sweet,” Nicola laughed in an interview with Extra at the Bridgerton season 3 premiere in New York City, referring to the dating rumors that have been swirling.
“I think it’s because we really love each other,” she added, her eyes sparkling with genuine affection.
Describing Luke as “a really special person in my life,” she confessed, “I would never be able to do something like this again, on this scale. It’s so nice to have such a lovely friend that I can do all this with.”
