When does 'Bridgerton' Season 3 Part 2 come out? Release date, cast, how to watch new episodes
Caught up on all four episodes of "Bridgerton" Season 3 Part 1? If so, then you may have to remain hot and bothered for a few weeks, because Part 2 of Season 3 will not be dropping until next month.
Finally in the spotlight this season are fan-favorites Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton. After two seasons of Penelope crushing on her childhood bestie and neighbor, she decides that she must move on and secure a husband for herself so she can get away from her insufferable mother and sisters, and lead her double-life as Lady Whistledown in peace.
However, she lacks confidence and after making a fool of herself in front of suitors, accepts the offer of the season's most-eligible Mr. Bridgerton to coach her into becoming desirable. Colin, who last season said he would never court Penelope, regrets his words and is willing to do anything to make amends for hurting his best friend's feelings.
Rarely do things go as planned, and just as Penelope finds herself a match, Colin realizes he has feelings for her. Fortunately, he doesn't take another two seasons to declare them, asking Penelope at the end of Part 1 to marry him.

What will happen in 'Bridgerton' Season 3 Part 2?
Part 1 of "Bridgerton" Season 3 ended on a cliffhanger with Colin asking Penelope to marry him after the iconic carriage scene. At this point, Penelope is still estranged from her best friend and Colin's sister Eloise, who also happens to know about Penelope's double-life as Lady Whistledown. Will Penelope accept his proposal?
Nicola Coughlan, who plays Penelope, and Claudia Jessie, who plays Eloise, in an interview with USA TODAY, said things are going to get "serious" and a "real mess" between the two former besties.
As to whether Colin will find out about Penelope's alias Lady Whistledown, Coughlan says her character should tell him.
"I think when you love someone truly, you have to reveal all of yourself, which is hard," the actor said.
