June 18, 2024 BRIDGERTON S3 | she DOES have perfect boobs!
Bridgerton is BACK, and all our fav characters are going through it... except Benedict for some reason. Today we're discussing all the season 3 storylines and how they ended, from the most unhinged (looking at you again, Benedict) to the most satisfying (Lady Featherington outsold!).

This episode contains spoilers for the entirety of Bridgerton season 3 on Netflix, as well as Julia Quinn's Romancing Mister Bridgerton. We also talk spoilers for other Bridgerton books (namely Francesca's and Benedict's stories) at the end of the episode, but we warn you beforehand.
