CLAUDIA JESSIE AS ELOISE BRIDGERTON BRIDGERTON SEASON THREE: PART TWO
Polin + Letters BRIDGERTON (2020–)
Married Anthony is lowkey the funniest character in Bridgerton. His rage is still slowly burning under the surface but his wife waltzes in and goes “don’t worry dear it’ll be fine” and he’s just like “yeah you’re soooo right and soooo hot.” As he should

"You are the cleverest, bravest woman I’ve ever known. You make me feel seen in ways I’ve never felt seen before. And then there’s the way your hair cascades down your shoulder. The way your eyes shine when you look at me like two blue pools. The firmness of your lips, parted just so. Softness of your skin. And then there are other parts I have been dreaming about." - Colin

HAPPY PRIDE!
I caution you, every sordid detail John has spoken about me is a lie. The truth is far worse.
A few quick thoughts on the Francesca LI reveal until I can make a longer post:
- Lesbians 💖💖💖💖💖
- I so not trust the writers of this show to handle a topic like this in a sensitive enough way (will elaborate).
- Michaela is such an ugly name 💀
Okay honestly wasn’t going to make a super long expansion on this because I feel other people have expressed it better than I ever could, but basically I already love Michaela (even the name has grown on me a little lol) and I’m sure Masali Baduza and Hannah Dodd are going to completely smash it.
One of my concerns is that, per the show’s own canon, they’ve established that homophobia very much exists; this makes sense because in order for the marriage mart to operate the way it does in Bridgerton, there has to exist a great level of misogyny and strict gender roles within their society that wouldn’t allow for same sex relationship to be openly accepted. Now the argument I’ve seen is that, with Francesca being a widow, she and Michaela can just live as companions without arising any suspicion, and to be fair I don’t believe neither Francesca nor Michaela (or at least in the books Michael, which I’m assuming will be the same in the show) are the type to really care about making their relationship public, but there’s a not-so-good pattern in Bridgerton of giving their black female characters sad fates; not necessarily tragic, but defensively not as happy as the other female characters, especially the white women, get. Think about characters like Queen Charlotte, Lady Danbury and, more glaringly, Marina. I don’t want that kind of fate for Michaela.
I guess my preferred outcome would be if they simply cure homophobia and misogyny with the power of love like they did racism, but I’m not sure the writers would ever go with that route lmao.
Still, I’m very curious and excited about seeing how this relationship will develop, especially seeing how another couple slowly grows across the seasons, now that we’ll no longer have Colin and Penelope.
