We’re not sure if an official announcement confirming a second season of Netflix’s hotly devoured period drama
Bridgerton really qualifies as good gossip. For some of us, our Twitter timelines have essentially devolved into steady streams of Simon Basset (Regé-Jean Page) thirst and, as of Wednesday, well-curated Bernie Sanders memes. (Well, that’s certainly the case for this writer, at least.) Also, the streaming platform has been teasing the news for days. But the perceived obviousness of Netflix
maybe wanting to hold onto their Regency-era golden goose a little while longer hasn’t precluded Lady Whistledown (voiced by Julie Andrews) from announcing the renewal with all the pageantry you’d expect from the Shondaland hit.
