It’s the question every Bridgerton fan is asking: Does Colin find out that his friend Penelope – who he has fallen in love with – is secretly gossip writer Lady Whistledown?
The first half of Bridgerton season three has arrived on Netflix , and over four tense episodes, young Colin Bridgerton has finally realised that he is in love with his best friend, Penelope Featherington . The fourth episode ended with the pair having a steamy encounter in her carriage, followed by Colin asking Penelope to marry him.
Already in this season Colin has expressed his disgust at Lady Whistledown’s gossiping, especially as the Bridgerton family has been subject to her fiery opinions on more than one occasion. In the first episode, Colin catches his sister Eloise reading the gossip paper and tells her that “after nearly ruining you last season, I will never forgive her.” Of course, Eloise knows that Pen is Lady Whistledown, so she asks Colin if he has any idea who the writer could be.
So far, the Netflix series has kept reasonably close to the events in the novels, although the third season is based on the fourth book about Colin rather than the third . In Colin’s story – Romancing Mr Bridgerton – there are scenes that fans of this season of TV series will recognise, including Pen reading Colin’s travel journal and him cutting his hand and her attending to it.
If the series follows the events of the book, Colin will discover that Penelope is Lady Whistledown, and quite soon, too. He makes the discovery when he follows Penelope one day and sees her place an envelope in a pew at St Bride’s Church in the east end of London, and then confronts her about it. She confesses that she is Lady Whistledown and the envelope contains her final gossip column as she has decided to retire.
