Calling All “Bridgerton” Fans: A Sneak Peek At The Season 4 Scene We’re All Waiting For
Meanwhile, it’s also been announced that Bridgerton will be back for two more seasons, with a fifth and sixth run having now been commissioned by Netflix.
One of these will centre around Francesca Bridgerton’s love story with Michaela Stirling, which was teased at the end of season three.
This storyline has already generated a lot of conversation, as the character appears in the books as Michael Stirling, but has been reimagined for the TV series as a woman.
Bridgerton author Julia Quinn has already given this change her seal of approval, telling fans: “Anyone who has seen an interview with me from the past four years knows that I am deeply committed to the Bridgerton world becoming more diverse and inclusive as the stories move from book to screen.”
“I’m confident [that] when Francesca has her Bridgerton season, it will be the most emotional and heart-wrenching story of the show, just like When He Was Wicked has always been the true tear-jerker of the Bridgerton book series,” Julia added, urging Bridgerton fans to “grant me and the Shondaland team some faith as we move forward”.
Bridgerton will return for its fourth season in 2026, although an exact release date is yet to be revealed.
