Dearest gentle reader,
While new episodes of Bridgerton won't grace our screens until 2026, we finally know what, or rather who, will be the focus of the next season. The official Bridgerton social media accounts revealed on Tuesday (July 23) that Benedict Bridgerton, the beloved artist and second son of the prominent family, will finally find his match in the Ton as viewers tune in to see his love story unfold in season four.
News of how the "most compelling match will be unmasked" was shared in a video featuring members of the Ton gossiping before Luke Thompson, who portrays Benedict, opens a door to reveal him holding a script and being informed he is being fitted for a suit fit for "the masquerade ball."
"It has been brought to this author's attention that perhaps it is time to unmask the newest suitor of the marriage mart... Benedict Bridgerton's story is coming next season," the caption stated.
The reveal got some love in the comments not just from fans but from fellow Brigertons, including Simone Ashely, who portrays Viscountess Kate Sharma Bridgerton, and Colin Bridgerton actor Luke Newton, whose love story with Nicola Coughlan's Penelope Featherington was the focus of season three.
There's still a long way out before viewers will watch Benedict's love story, so you have plenty of time to catch up on seasons 1-3 on Netflix. You can also get behind-the-scenes stories from cast and crew by checking out the official Bridgerton podcast at iHeartRadio.com.
