The Big Picture Dearest reader: we’re officially through the first half of the third season of Bridgerton. Under new showrunner Jess Brownell, the latest installment of the hit Netflix romance series has centered its attention on the third Bridgerton son, Colin Bridgerton , as he helps his friend Penelope Featherington secure a husband. What he doesn’t expect is to fall head over heels in love with her in the process — but we’re getting ahead of ourselves.
While at the ball in Season 3, Episode 4, “Old Friends,” Marcus and Violet strike up a conversation. Violet informs Marcus that his sister molds society to her will and is one of the best meddling matchmakers the ton has ever seen. The two begin to share stories of their previous matches; Marcus and his deceased wife didn’t have a love match but a slow burn into something meaningful, and Violet has only known love matches because that’s what she had with her late husband, Edmund .
For fans of the Bridgerton book series, this is a major revelation because John Stirling plays a significant role in Francesca's life. According to the book series, the Earl of Kilmartin wins Francesca’s affections and the pair are married for a period of time. This official introduction of John also suggests that with one Stirling man, another Stirling man’s arrival is imminent: John’s cousin, Michael.
Cressida’s Interference Pushes Lord Debling Away From Penelope While Francesca might walk away from her season with a love match, the same can’t be said about Cressida Cowper . While Cressida does value her newfound friendship with Eloise Bridgerton , she still has to look out for herself in securing a husband who isn’t picked by her father .
Penelope and Colin Officially Move Out of the Friend Zone Close After Debling cuts off his attachment to Penelope, she leaves the ball. Colin chases after her carriage and manages to stop it. It’s all been leading to this moment in the carriage. Penelope is furious at Colin for denying her a chance at a husband. Colin stammers about how Debling isn’t right for her but won’t admit why until Penelope explains that Colin’s actions made it appear to Debling that he has feelings for her.
