Will Pen never have Eloise's forgiveness in Season 3?

Bridgerton Season 2 left one of the story's best friendships in tatters. After discovering Penelope Featherington's secret writing hobby, Eloise Bridgerton made a scene and severed all ties with her best friend. While she had good reason (after all, Lady Whistledown ruined her reputation and was the cause of her brother's heartbreak), such a development raises many uncomfortable questions as the story continues.

The upcoming Season 3 will focus on the love arc of Penelope and Colin Bridgerton, so it's natural to expect the feud between Pen and Eloise to be the major obstacle on their way to the happily ever after. But what if Penelope never gets over that hump and the friends never make up? One fan theory says just that.

The theory is based on the on-set photos and footage that were leaked earlier this year. They showed the behind-the-scenes of a large wedding ceremony filmed at a chapel in Greenwich, which the majority of fans assumed was Penelope and Colin's. The pictures featured numerous cast members, including glimpses of the Bridgertons and Featheringtons, and the only actress who wasn't seen on set was Claudia Jessie, who plays Eloise.

While she may have been smart enough to avoid all photos that day, it could also mean that she was simply not there at all. This has led fans to theorize that Eloise will be so angry with Pen that she may skip her wedding altogether, leading to a painful conclusion — the girls' friendship might be ruined for good.

It is possible that Penelope's relationship with Colin will develop alongside her fight with his sister. And even if Eloise tries to warn her brother that Pen is not who he thinks she is, Colin may come to terms with it before she does. And if she learns that Colin is knowingly marrying Lady Whistledown, Eloise may also cut him off and refuse to attend his wedding.

While this is the worst possible development, nothing is out of the question in the Shondaland Bridgerverse, so brace yourselves, dear Bridgerton fans.
