Bridgerton season 2 is underway in the UK, and these set photos tease the hit Netflix show’s new lead couple.
The first run was a major smash for the streamer, but the romance between the Duke of Hastings (Regé-Jean Page) and Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor) is now complete, with Daphne’s oldest brother Anthony (Jonathan Bailey) taking over as the series’ protagonist.
