Bridgerton season three has landed but when is part two going to make its debut?

The hit Shondaland romantic drama has returned to Netflix with Bridgerton’s third outing ready to watch.

This time around, it will be Colin Bridgerton (played by Luke Newton) and Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) at the heart of the main love story as their lifelong friendship turns into something more.

When fans last saw the pair, Penn was furious with Colin as he told his friends that he would never dream of courting her, leaving the secret Lady Whistledown writer heartbroken.

So what will it take for Colin to see that Penn really could be the woman for him after all?

Bridgerton season three has landed on Netflix, dropping onto the streamer on Thursday, May 16.

Unfortunately for subscribers, the entirety of the latest series has not been made available with just the first four episodes coming out.

Fans of the Julia Quinn-based book series are instead going to have to wait another month before episodes four to eight are ready to watch.

Bridgerton season three, part two, is going to make its debut on Thursday, June 13, on Netflix.

This is the first time that a Bridgerton outing has been split in half with the first two series coming out in full on their initial release dates.

However, there have been various other series that have been released in two parts, including The Crown, The Witcher, You and Virgin River, just to name a few.

This is done in a bid to continue to build the momentum and excitement surrounding some of its biggest shows, instead of dropping all the new instalments in one go.

Penelope actress Nicola Couglan shared that she and co-star Luke Newton had plenty of “agency” when it came to filming the sex scenes.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have found themselves at the centre of public attention since they took a step back from senior royal duties in 2020.

In a trailer for the Netflix series about them, Prince Harry told viewers that “no one sees what’s happening behind closed doors” in a reference to how their lives may differ from what the public think about the couple. Meghan adds: “When the stakes are this high, doesn’t it make more sense to hear our story from us?”.

Reports suggested the Duke and Duchess of Sussex could receive up to $100 million for making the show, although this has been disputed and the true figure is unknown.

The former Derry Girls star explained to the Radio Times: “Luke and I had a real hand in what we did and how it came across.

“We decided what we wanted to show and how we wanted to choreograph the scenes.

“We had agency and we could let it flow. Thankfully, we had that physical comfort with one another – so it ended up being a really beautiful thing.”

Bridgerton is available to watch on Netflix.
