Filming for Bridgerton season 2 has finally started with Jonathan Bailey s Anthony Bridgerton and his on-screen love interest Simone Ashley, who plays Kate Sharma, spotted at a horse race.
Set photos leaked online show the pair seemingly enjoying each other s company as they cheered from the stands. At one point, both shared the same serious reactions as they focused their attention on the action on the tracks.
In another photo, Ashley s Kate can be seen without her gloves so she can whistle while Bailey s Anthony is pictured with his mouth wide open. Joining the pair on the horse race are the other Bridgerton siblings. Colin (Luke Newton), Benedict (Luke Thompson), and Eloise (Claudia Jessie) were there too, as well as the matriarch of the family Lady Violet (Ruth Gemmell).

Bridgerton is coming back for a second season. If you spent the end of 2020 completely invested in this Regency-era drama, its
Pride and Prejudice-meets-
Gossip Girl vibes, and its many problems that could be solved with a simple therapy session, this is good news for you.
“The incomparable cast of
Bridgerton will return to production in the Spring of 2021,” Netflix announced, via a letter from “Lady Whistledown,” on January 21. “This author has been reliably informed that Lord Anthony Bridgerton intends to dominate the social season. I will have my pen ready to report on any and all of his romantic activities.”
Should the casual viewer stumble upon Netflix’s Regency-era behemoth
Bridgerton, any expectations that this period romance would be as tight-laced as its predecessors goes out the carriage window within the first few minutes. We certainly never saw Matthew MacFayden’s bare bum as he pinned Keira Knightley to a solid oak tree a sight we’re treated to just three minutes into
Bridgerton as the show s introduction to acting family patriarch (and confirmed rake) Anthony (Jonathan Bailey).
Hand grazes and charged glances used to be the only titillation found in historical works of fiction. But in this series from executive producer Shonda Rhimes and based on the best-selling books by Julia Quinn there’s sex. And lots of it.
