What is the “Bridgerton” about?
Here’s what we know about the series!
The Bridgerton Series is a collection of eight novels, each featuring one of the eight children of the late Viscount Bridgerton: Anthony(Jonathan Bailey), Benedict (Luke Thompson), Colin(Luke Newton), Daphne(Phoebe Dyvenor), Eloise (Claudia Jessie), Francesca(Ruby Stokes), Gregory(Will Tilston), and Hyacinth(Florence Hunt) in particular focus on their love affairs and domestic drama.
The first season follows Daphne Bridgerton, the fourth of eight siblings in her close-knit family making a debut into society. Despite being liked by everybody around her for her kindness, wit, and beauty, initially fails to attract any proposals. To make herself more pronounced among desirable suitors, she approaches her future ‘fake’ love interest, the cold yet dashing Simon Basset(Rege Jean), Duke of Hastings, who consents to a mutual agreement to deter the mamas who parade their daughters before him and thus begins a bogus courtship.
In addition, to quote Julia Quinn, “I didn’t originally set out to write an eight-book series; at first, it was just going to be a trilogy! But readers really took to the Bridgertons (and to the mysterious Lady Whistledown (Julie Andrews) whose gossip columns “narrated” the first four books), and I found myself rather enamored with the family, too.”
