The two stars are raising expectations for the upcoming season.

Summary

  • The camaraderie between the two Bridgerton actors is keeping fans excited even before the official promotion for Season 3 begins.
  • Recently, Coughlan and Newton delighted fans with their heartwarming collaboration, making the wait for Season 3 even harder than before.

Despite having only released two seasons and a spinoff in the past three years, Netflix's Bridgerton is unquestionably one of the most popular shows currently on the air. Fans have adored the ambiance of the 19th-century setting of the romantic show from the outset. However, viewers are somewhat puzzled as to why the streaming giant postponed the release of the eagerly anticipated Season 3, which was previously expected to premiere before 2024.

It seems that Netflix decided to wait until the conclusion of the SAG-AFTRA strike before promoting the new installment, which will center on the romance between Colin and Penelope. They have even refrained from broadcasting interviews with the two stars. Despite this, the actors themselves are doing wonders to build anticipation for Season 3.

Two Besties

Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton have already demonstrated incredible chemistry in the first two seasons of Bridgerton, and their starring roles in the upcoming installment are widely anticipated to be the best in the show's history. Even though the two are barred from promoting the show due to the strikes, they have still found ways to keep expectations high.

Coughlan and Newton frequently post pictures of each other on social media, consistently proving they are close friends. As a result, fans are eager to see the two together on the show as soon as possible, yearning for that on-screen chemistry.

Recently, Coughlan collaborated with Choose Love to create a special set of t-shirts featuring her drawings. The limited edition was designed to raise money for refugees, and fans were quick to commend the actress for championing such a worthy cause.

And who do you think Coughlan chose to model her T-shirts? Luke Newton, of course. She recently posted a picture of her co-star wearing her design, making fans love them even more.

All in all, the anticipation for Bridgerton Season 3 is at an all-time high, and we owe much of that to Coughlan and Newton's fantastic chemistry.
