There is so much hype surrounding Bridgerton season 3, and while fans await the release of part 2 (which has felt like it’s taken forever), they are devouring any Bridgerton content they can get their hands on, which now includes Nicola Coughlan’s recent photo dump. Why? Because it provides us with a behind-the-scenes look at how the actors interact with each other when they’re not filming.
It’s become well known that Luke Newton and Coughlan are good friends offscreen (while their onscreen characters Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington deliver one of the most thrilling storylines of season 3). So, with this in mind, it’s not surprising that the collection of pictures includes several of them posing together. There is a cute snapshot of them in causal clothes while appearing inside what appears to be the royal opera house, and a candid photo of Newton reading a script and Coughlan smiling in the mirror.
But Coughlan’s photos also show a playful side of multiple stars from the Bridgerton season 3 cast. Take her picture of Hannah Dodd (who plays the role of Francesca Bridgerton) posing with a mustache, for example. Obviously, fans have reacted to the post with great excitement.
