The second season of Bridgerton is going to be based on Julia Quinn’s second Bridgerton novel, The Viscount Who Loved Me. Thus, it demands for a slight cast change and some shocking revelations.
Lord Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) and the Viscount set out on a journey to find a potential wife. For the uninitiated, Anthony is the oldest Bridgerton sibling and the story is more focused on his life this time around.
The show also has an Indian connection, for Anthony ends up meeting Kate (Simone Ashley) and her younger sister Edwina (Charithra Chandran) Sharma, obviously, from India. On the other hand, the viewers also get a glimpse of the Featheringtons, especially Penelope (Nicola Coughlan).
