Black people wouldn’t just suddenly become accepted in every aspect of society in the time the queen and king have been together, but it’s not explained further. A previous episode implied that Simon’s father had long been a duke. There’s no mention of slavery - or anything specific, really - but he says that their people were previously seen as “novelties.” This raises a ton of questions. Regarding the white king (who we haven’t actually seen) and Black queen, Danbury says, “We were two separate societies, divided by color, until a king fell in love with one of us.” Simon points out that this might have allowed Black people to hold titles, but it doesn’t change everything. She also makes the first mention of race we get on the show. In a scene mirroring this, Lady Danbury tells Simon to propose to Daphne, if he loves her. And, please, someone get these girls an encyclopedia. At one point Eloise is shown smoking a cigarette and with her deep voice she’s reminiscent of Florence Pugh playing young Amy in Little Women. It doesn’t help that the actors playing Penelope and Eloise are 33 and 31, respectively. Neither Penelope nor Eloise find out the truth about sex this episode, and… I’m sorry, how old are they supposed to be? Penelope is out for her first social season, so I was guessing about 16. Marina tells Penelope that pregnancy comes from “love” and shares that she’s in love with a guy named George who writes her letters and is fighting in a war in Spain. They thought pregnancy could only happen to married women and don’t want to become pregnant by mistake, so they need answers. She shares with Eloise that she knows someone who is pregnant, but doesn’t know how it happened. I get to come in, I get to contribute my bit and then the Bridgerton family rolls on.The other storyline of this episode starts when Penelope finds out about Marina’s pregnancy. “ ‘That’s interesting,’ because then it felt like a limited series. It’s going to have a beginning, middle, end – give us a year,” he told Variety in April 2021, recounting early conversations with Shondaland producers.

Page, for his part, hasn’t appeared on Bridgerton since the inaugural season - and has no plans to return to the series at this point. But Season 3, I’m just excited to watch as a viewer.”
If they ask me back in the future, who knows?” The same month, she also told ScreenRant that she is “sadly not in Season 3. “I’ve done what I wanted to do with that character and she had a great arc. “Well I did my two seasons,” Dynevor told Variety in January 2023 of the prospect of her making a comeback to the Netflix series. Though it initially seemed possible that the mystery baby could have been Kate and Anthony’s first child, Lady Bridgerton later briefly mentioned to Lady Danbury that her son and new daughter-in-law were still on their honeymoon, pinpointing when Queen Charlotte’s flash-forward scenes took place in relation to the events of Bridgerton Season 2.ĭon’t expect to see Daphne or Simon in Season 3, though. Daughters Belinda and Caroline were born next, followed by two sons, David and Edward. In Quinn’s The Duke and I, Simon and Daphne welcomed their first child: a girl named Amelia. The Shonda Rhimes-produced Netflix adaptation has already slightly deviated from the source material, though. The reveal shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise to readers of Julia Quinn’s Bridgerton book series, though, as the couple had five children in the literary version. The scene certainly suggests that Daphne (Phoebe Dynevor) and Simon (Regé-Jean Page) had another baby. As Lady Whistledown says in the aptly timed background voiceover, “There are some very special joys well worth waiting for.” In Queen Charlotte’s second episode, Violet Bridgerton (Ruth Gemmell) is shown on the floor watching August, aka Augie, play a game while she cradles who appears to be a second grandchild. Though the new series primarily follows young Charlotte’s (India Amarteifio) early rise to prominence, an interwoven present-day Bridgerton timeline provides several updates, including a major one about the Basset family.
Though Daphne and Simon aren’t in Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, the Netflix prequel answers a burning question about the couple.
