Will These 5 Bridgerton Season 3 Subplots Even Make the Cut?
Hopefully, Shonda will find room for all of them.
Part of what makes Shondaland's Bridgerton so addictive is its masterful juggling of different storylines. Aside from the main romantic arc, the show manages to develop several subplots that either tie into previous stories or serve as a bridge to future seasons.
That's why fans are expecting a lot from Season 3, aside from the Lady Whistledown arc and Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton's love affair, which promises to be the show's most romantic yet.
Here are the storylines fans are most excited about.
Kanthony
Many viewers find it hard to part with Season 2's lead couple, Kate and Anthony Bridgerton aka Kanthony. They hope to see as much of Kanthony's loving, sexy and supportive side as possible in the new episodes.
Fans also expect to see how Kate handles being a Viscountess, builds a relationship with the Bridgertons, and probably gets pregnant.
Francesca's debut
Francesca Bridgerton may be introduced to the ton and the Queen this social season. While she's been on the fringes of the Bridgerton family so far, the casting of the new actress (Hannah Dodd) could mean that the character could play a bigger role in Season 3.
Book fans are looking forward to seeing the third sister make her debut and meet her future husband. After all, Francesca's book is the favorite of many readers.
Masquerade
It is not yet known who will lead Season 4, but many fans are hoping it will be Benedict. If so, Season 3 should feature the masquerade ball, where the second Bridgerton sibling meets a mysterious masked girl he becomes obsessed with. The girl is set to be Benedict's future love interest Sophie, but that is a story for another season.
Lady Danbury
After the spin-off series, fans are eager to explore more of Lady Danbury and her story that came between the timelines shown in Queen Charlotte. In Season 3, viewers hope to meet her adult children and generally see more of the character.
Prudank
Season 3 will introduce a number of new characters, including Harry Dankworth, who is said to be somewhat dim-witted. Fans have a compelling theory that this character will start out as one of Penelope's suitors and end up becoming her sister Prudence's husband.
We all know Prudence is not the brightest of the bunch either, so this couple, dubbed Prudank, could be a real treat of the comic relief we love so much in the Bridgerverse. Hopefully, the writers will find a place for it among all the other storylines of the season.
