Wondering About the Main Characters of Future Bridgerton Seasons? Here's What to Know

As we all know, the first season focuses on Daphne, the fourth Bridgerton sibling and the eldest daughter, and Simon, the Duke of Hastings. What starts out as a fake romance for mutual benefit evolves into real friendship and romance, but even once they've fallen in love, the road to a happy future together isn't secure.

As has already been announced, the second season will shift focus to Anthony Bridgerton, the eldest of the siblings. Anthony is last seen in season one declaring his intentions to marry a suitable woman, without love getting involved, although we all know that's not going to go as he plans! The season will introduce the Sharma sisters, Edwina (played by Charithra Chandran) and Kate (played by Simone Ashley), who get caught up in Anthony's plans. The season will mostly be based on the second novel in Quinn's series, The Viscount Who Loved Me.

Next up after Anthony's will be Benedict's season, giving the artistic second son a chance in the spotlight. Benedict's book, An Offer from a Gentleman, depicts his forbidden romance with Sophie Beckett, a young noblewoman suffering at the hands of a disapproving stepmother.

Kind-hearted Colin is the protagonist of Quinn's fourth book, Romancing Mister Bridgerton. This season will be a friends-to-lovers romance that's already been hinted at in the fourth season, as Colin comes to realize that the love of his life has been right there all along.

Eloise, the independent-minded middle Bridgerton, will probably have to wait until season five to get her own full-fledged romance story. The season will be based on To Sir Phillip, With Love, in which Eloise corresponds with a charming widower and winds up finding a romance as unconventional as she is.

Poor Francesca, we barely know you! Francesca (seen in the mid-foreground here, just between Colin and Benedict) is barely a presence in season one, but eventually, she gets her own story in Quinn's sixth Bridgerton novel. When He Was Wicked, which will be the basis of Francesca's season, tells the story of her romance with Michael Stirling, her close friend and the cousin of her late first husband.

In the first season, Hyacinth is the all-too-observant baby sister, the youngest Bridgerton of all. If the TV show follows the same order as the books, though, she'll get her season before her older brother Gregory does. Hyacinth's book, It's In His Kiss, revolves around Hyacinth, all grown up many years after we first meet her, working with a charming young man named Gareth St. Clair to decipher his family's secret journals and falling in love along the way.

Gregory, like the other younger Bridgertons, is just a child in the first season, but by the time we get towards the end of the series, he's an adult with his own love story to tell. Quinn tells his story in the last regular Bridgerton book, On the Way to the Wedding, with a few madcap love triangles and his own happily ever after.
