Bridgerton Season 3 Cast Teases What’s in Store for Part 2
What About Francesca Bridgerton?
Francesca Bridgerton (Hannah Dodd) is often overlooked in the Bridgerton family, not due to lack of love from her family, but because she, like in the show, prefers a quieter life compared to her siblings.
In the book series, it’s mentioned that Francesca found her husband seven years before the events of Penelope and Colin’s story. However, in the TV adaptation, executive producer Shonda Rhimes and the team have chosen to blend Francesca, Colin, and Benedict Bridgerton’s storylines, as they all search for love in season three.
On the show, Francesca becomes Queen Charlotte’s “diamond” of the season and finds herself being courted by Lord Samadani (David Mumeni) and her preferred suitor, John Stirling, Earl of Kilmartin (Victor Alli). (Note: Queen Charlotte is not a character in the books.)
Without revealing too many spoilers from the novels, Francesca’s story is likely to see further development in Bridgerton part two. If you’re curious for more details, her journey is explored in the sixth Bridgerton book, When He Was Wicked.
