ABOUT
BRIDGERTON
From
Shondaland and Creator Chris Van Dusen, the second season of Bridgerton
follows Lord Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey), the eldest Bridgerton
sibling and Viscount, as he sets out to find a suitable wife. Driven by his
duty to uphold the family name, Anthony’s search for a debutante who meets his
impossible standards seems ill-fated until Kate (Simone Ashley) and her younger
sister Edwina (Charithra Chandran) Sharma arrive from India. When Anthony
begins to court Edwina, Kate discovers the true nature of his intentions — a
true love match is not high on his priority list — and decides to do everything
in her power to stop the union. But in doing so, Kate and Anthony’s verbal
sparring matches only bring them closer together, complicating matters on both
sides. Across Grosvenor Square, the Featheringtons must welcome the newest heir
to their estate while Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) continues to navigate the ton
whilst keeping her deepest secret from the people closest to her.
Bridgerton is a romantic, scandalous, and clever
series that celebrates the timelessness of enduring friendships, families
finding their way, and the search for a love that conquers all. The series also
