'Bridgerton' Season 3 Will Officially Arrive on Netflix Next Spring

Dearest gentle readers, to steal a line from Lady Whistledown, the social season is upon us. Well, almost. Get ready to pack up your scandal sheets and head back to the 'ton because Netflix's megapopular period romance series Bridgerton has officially set a date with our collective screens next Spring.

The long-awaited third season will debut in May of 2024, just a little over two years after the series' second outing aired. Of course, we had the prequel series Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story to help tide us over during the hiatus, but given everything we know is pending in the upcoming Season 3, it's no wonder that viewers everywhere are feeling antsy. The series has decided to jettison the established order of author Julia Quinn's bestselling series of romance novels in favor of giving fans what they've been clamoring for almost since the series began: Colin and Penelope's story.
