‘Bridgerton’ Season 3 Photos Show Colin and Penelope’s New Looks Amid Love Story

usmagazine.com:

While fans are anxiously waiting for Bridgerton season 3, Netflix offered a special glimpse at Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington’s complicated journey.The hit series, which is based on the book series written by Julia Quinn, set up Colin (Luke Newton) and Penelope’s love story in previous seasons.

After Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) found his happily ever after with Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley) in season 2, Penelope’s personal life took a hit when she heard Colin telling his friends that he wasn’t romantically interested in her.Things got even more complicated when Penelope’s best friend Eloise Bridgerton (Claudia Jessie) discovered that she was actually Lady Whistledown.Shortly after the sophomore season premiered, Newton, 30, explained why Colin and Penelope’s slow progression from friends to lovers worked for the fictional couple.“We’re trying to cover all types of relationships,” he told Shondaland in March 2022. “And there are some relationships that are heavy in the beginning, and it’s just so intense.

And then there are some where people are best friends, and over the years they become lovers.”The Netflix star went on to gush over Colin and Penelope’s future connection, adding, “There are so many other characters that are introduced and love stories that we’ve seen through the last two seasons that have developed quite quickly, or that there’s been an instant spark, an instant connection.

We as viewers see that immediately. But what I love about Colin and Penelope is the longevity of the relationship and how long it’s taken to get to even where it is now, which is not even considered a relationship.
