Gather around, Ton. There's a new "it" couple in town.
The much-awaited Season 3 of Netflix's "Bridgerton" is less than a month away and anticipation for the upcoming social season is high.
Taking the spotlight this season will be Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and her longtime crush and good friend Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton). Things didn't end well for the two last season after Penelope heard Colin tell his friends that he would never court her. To top it off, Penelope had a falling out with her best friend Eloise Bridgerton (Claudia Jessie), after the former realized Penelope was the town gossip, Lady Whistledown.
In Season 3, Penelope gives up her crush on Colin and decides that it's time for her "to take a husband, preferably one who will provide her with enough independence to continue her double life as Lady Whistledown, far away from her mother and sisters," according to Netflix.
But she lacks confidence. Meanwhile Colin has returned from his travels and is disheartened to be welcomed back by Penelope's cold shoulder.
"Eager to win back her friendship, Colin offers to mentor Penelope in the ways of confidence to help her find a husband this season," Netflix says. "But when his lessons start working a little too well, Colin must grapple with whether his feelings for Penelope are truly just friendly."
Part 1 of "Bridgerton" Season 3 is scheduled to premiere on Netflix at 12 a.m. PT/3 a.m. ET on Thursday, May 16.
Part 2 of Season 3, with episodes 5-8, will come out at 3 a.m. ET on Thursday, June 13.
