Swipe Right on Bridgerton: Who is the Show's Most Eligible Bachelor?
Fans are torn over the question of which bachelor is the sexiest of the bunch.
Netflix's decision to team up with Shonda Rhimes to create an adaptation of Julia Quinn's bestselling series of novels about young and beautiful English aristocrats living in the fictional Regency era was definitely golden, as the streaming service has attracted millions of new viewers thanks to it.
People love to follow the romantic struggles of Bridgerton's main characters, and after the two seasons that have come out, there are still debates about who is the most eligible bachelor.
While that question is easily answered in other romance series, there is more than one suitable candidate for that title in Bridgerton.

In pondering the issue online, fandom has split in two, with each part of the community voting for different types of bachelor.
The first side venomously defends Benedict Bridgerton as the most eligible bachelor, arguing that his family's high standing and his own character would make him the perfect match for almost anyone. Benedict is clearly a man who will love his other half for life, as evidenced by his many speeches – which is why many people are immediately attracted to him.
Benedict is also a lot of fun, as his impeccable, albeit slightly silly, sense of humor will make even the sternest of people roll on the floor with laughter. All in all, fans love Benedict for his genuine cuteness and passion.

However, the other side of fandom voting for Will Mondrich also has pretty strong evidence in favor of their candidate as the most eligible bachelor on the show.
Although Will does not have the same aristocratic status as Benedict, this former boxer has quickly risen up London's social ladder thanks to his charisma and close friendship with the duke. Will's magnificent physique and street smarts make him the ideal man in the eyes of many fans, and his kind and caring personality certainly matches this.
Although Benedict and Will are recognized as the most eligible bachelors on the show, the number of runners-up is also insane, with every fan taking a special interest in all of Bridgerton's bachelors.
