It’s no secret that Eloise (Claudia Jessie) is one of our favorite Bridgerton characters, and that we’re eagerly anticipating her season. While Bridgerton season 3 ended up introducing a major plot twist in Francesca’s direction for season 4, it also opened up plenty of opportunity for Eloise Bridgerton‘s future storyline — especially since we’ve already met her spouse from the books.
Bridgerton season 4: Will Eloise Bridgerton find love?
Eloise Bridgerton stands apart from the crowd as an independent mind who’d rather read, explore, and travel than get married. But in the Bridgerton books, when Eloise connects with a certain baronet, she realizes that she can get married and still retain her independent mind & spirit. And if the show ends up following the books, then we’ve already met her future husband.
Phillip Crane (played by Chris Fulton in the Netflix series) first makes an appearance in Bridgerton during the season 1 finale, bringing Marina Thompson the news that his brother George, the father of her child, has died in battle. Phillip proposes instead, and Marina agrees to marry him.
In the books, after Marina passes away, Eloise sends him a letter of condolences and the two strike up a relationship as pen pals, later falling in love after Eloise shows up to spend time with his children.
While it looks like Bridgerton season 4 could focus more on Francesca, we could definitely see the beginning of Eloise and Phillip’s correspondence if that’s the route the show chooses to go. The season 3 ending sees Eloise leave for Scotland with Francesca, meaning she’ll have plenty of time to write letters!
Are Eloise and Phillip a good match?
Eloise and Phillip make an excellent couple, and they prove that opposites attract! They’re both intelligent and studious, even if it comes across in different ways.
