There are LOADS of Secret Bridgerton Season 2 Photos Right Here!
More Lavish Costumes And New Characters To Come For Season 2
With the amazing success of season 1, it’s no surprise that fans are getting excited about the green-lit season 2 (and another 2 seasons after that, too, hoorah!). Here we see actress Shelley Conn as a newcomer to the show for the brand new season. Conn is playing the mother of a new and interesting family indeed. Conn will be playing Mary Sharma, who is mother to sisters Kate and Edwina.
Kate is going to be a huge love interest of the season for Bridgerton family head (and fan-favourite Anthony) so hopefully we’ll see many sparks flying between those two. Will Mary be a character to support her daughter’s pursuits, or will she try to get in the way of everything? We’ll have to find out!

The Return Of The Featherington Family
After the drama the Featherington family went through in season one, fans will be eager to see the return of Penelope Featherington in particular – and this photo reveals that we won’t be disappointed! No doubt Portia Featherington as head of the family will be back with even more vigour to find a match for all of her daughters. And if this photo is anything to go by, they’re back in full force to make that happen!
Season 1 saw many ups and downs for the Featherington family, not least of all the tragic and shocking demise of Lord Featherington, who appeared to be killed by placing an all too dodgy bet. This left Portia as sole leader of the family with even more pressure on her to find suitable marriages for her daughters.

The Intriguing New Sharma Family
With season 2 focusing on Bridgerton family’s Anthony finding his perfect marriage, it’s no surprise that the show needed to introduced a new and interesting bunch of people to potentially be his suitors. Enter the Sharma family! And this photo reveals all we can expect, including two beautiful daughters that have the potential to be Anthony’s special lady.
The news is that Anthony originally tries to woo younger sister Edwina. Edwina first catches Anthony’s attention with her good-nature and adorable charm, but it seems that older sister Kate’s headstrong nature and more fiery personality soon comes to blows with Anthony (could this be enemies to lovers? We hope so!).

Could Kate Turn The Gun On Anthony?
Based on their fiery relationship, it looks like Kate Sharma is considering exactly what to do with that gun when Anthony is around! While Anthony Bridgerton determinedly tries to court Edwina Sharma, Kate seems to be doing everything in her power to stop the union. Could this be because she wants Anthony all to herself, or does she not even like him at this point? We think the latter!
No doubt Kate’s tenacity in wrecking the union and putting Anthony in his place will make for great television – and even better if the pair end up falling in love (or at least lust) themselves. But we wonder what younger sister Edwina will make of that… Perhaps the sisters themselves will end up coming to blows.

The Fan-Favourite Duke of Hastings Sadly Won’t Be Returning
Many Bridgerton fans – if not all – were probably eager anticipating the return of Daphne and the Duke’s dynamic, to see how they’re now faring after the season 1 finale. But sadly, it looks like Simon Basset actor – and all-round heartthrob – Rege-Jean Page won’t be returning. Shonda Rhimes revealed the news on her Instagram page in the guide of Lady Whistledown – and this is certainly big news for the upcoming season.
We don’t yet know what this means for Simon’s character in the show, or how his absense will be written into the second season. While the below photo specifies that Daphne will remain a loyal wife, does that mean she’ll remain happily married to the Duke? Or will his absense mean that Daphne becomes closer to other suitors while he’s absent?

What’s Happening With Daphne?
The main focus of season one was Daphne’s chemistry, lust and love with Duke of Hastings – and we lapped it all up! The season ended with Daphne and the Duke eventually together, despite coming to blows many times. With their storyline apparently all wrapped up and season 2’s focus now being on Daphne’s big brother Anthony, what’s planned for Daphne?
There are definitely no shortage of suitors for Daphne Bridgerton, and could this photo suggest that she reconnects with Prince Freidrich? Although the Prince is certainly no Simon Basset in terms of connection and chemistry with Daphne, he always seemed a good guy. Anything that keeps her away from Nigel Berbrooke, of course…

Daphne Returns To Her Family
While we don’t know the full details of what Daphne’s situation will be and how the absense of the Duke’s actor will be written into the show, this photo certainly proves that she’ll at least return to the Bridgerton family household and presumably help brother Anthony in his tasks, responsibilities – and maybe even finding his own suitor.
She looks very serious in this photo, while Anthony looks like his usual ironic, jokey or maybe even overly sarcastic self! What could they be discussing, fans wonder? Perhaps Daphne has some well-founded advice for her big bro now that she’s been away, married and grown into her own person. Or maybe Anthony has the good ideas and Daphne’s only getting in the way… We’ll find out!

Brotherly Love (Or Sibling Rivalry)
One of the best dynamics in the show had to be the relationship between the Bridgerton brothers, and each of their roles within the family. It’s something fans will eagerly be awaiting a return for for the second season, and by the looks of this photo, things are getting heated! Could this be playful sibling banter while they practice their form (they have to keep their skills and fitness up, after all).
Or could this be their unique way of sorting out an argument? Whatever it is, it looks like Anthony and Colin are deadly serious, while Benedict – in his usually form – observes from the sidelines with a slight smirk on his face. Could Colin be berating Anthony about his lady-wooing, or could Anthony be encouraging Colin to woo more?

Anthony Sets His Sights On The New Sharma Family
And who can blame him when he looks like this? It looks like Anthony Bridgerton is taking his dancing and seduction very seriously at this formal parties, and by the looks of new Bridgerton addition Edwina Sharma, she’s either very nervous about whatever he’s telling her (or maybe a nervous dancer) or she’s entranced by what he has to say. She looks a very sweet and interesting character, and it’s certain we’ll enjoy watching their relationship unfold on screen.
At best, we’ll have lots of new ballroom dances and elegant outfits to look forward to as the head of the Bridgerton family tries to find his new bride. Or maybe Edwina’s sister Kate will quickly cut in and offer a dance instead. With Kate suffering no fools as a character, it sounds like Anthony will have his work cut out – either with Edwina or Kate.

The Return Of The Drawing Room
This drawing room set has seen A LOT of drama and overheard A LOT of conversations – and it seems like it’s all set up ready to go for round two with the second season! This is a beautiful set where the Bridgerton family can get together, chat, gossip and even host potential suitors and visitors to the family.
Knowing it’s returning for season two bodes will for people who love spending time in the Bridgerton home and catching up with the latest of what the siblings are doing. Will Daphne’s return mean that she spends a lot more time in this room with her sisters and brothers, just like in season one?

The Brothers Are Back!
It’s always great to see the Bridgerton brothers getting along, and it’s even more exciting when it’s one and one so we can see more bonding between them. And by the looks of it, Colin and Benedict will be doing a lot of that in season two! Perhaps Anthony is too busy trying to woo the ladies that Colin and Benedict are grateful for a little horse ride far, far away?
This photo was revealed on Luke Newton’s (Colin) Instagram, so it seems the actor himself is just as excited about sharing shots from the upcoming season – and of his character. It’s hard to tell seeing as Benedict is so smiley anyway, but it seems like this is a laid-back chat between the actors rather than the characters.

The Sharma Sisters Come Calling
It’s difficult to tell based on the background this snap gives us where the two sisters actually are – are they in the Bridgerton household, the Featherington household or somewhere else entirely? Perhaps eagle-eyed fans would know based on the wallpaper alone. It would make sense that the Sharma sisters, Kate and Edwina, would be visiting the Bridgerton household.
But would they barge their way in uninvited, or would Anthony be quick to extend the offer? Edwina looks pleased to be there, whereas Kate – completely in character based on what we already know about her – looks less than impressed. Perhaps they’re speaking to Anthony, and maybe he invited Edwina alone before Kate showed up, too. At least the dog looks happy to see them!

Anthony and Kate Sharma Lock Horns
You always know something serious is going down when two characters excuse themselves from the main party. Either it’s going to be a big fallout, a heated discussion or a kiss in the bushes. It looks like Anthony and Kate are going for the former here – could Kate have taken Anthony aside from the party to warn him to stay away from her little sister?
Or could he have requested she ‘escort him for a stroll’ to tell her his intentions with Edwina? There’s no denying that even with this photo there’s clear chemistry between them. It just depends how much of a slow burn this relationship is going to be throughout season two… but there’s no doubt it’ll be fun to watch. Has Anthony met his match?

The Return Of Penelope Featherington (A.K.A Lady Whistledown)
One HUGE mystery of season one was who the heck is Lady Whistledown? While many fans thought it could be Eloise, the big shocking reveal saw Penelope Featherington behind the scandalous letters. Bridgerton’s own version of Gossip Girl, Penelope hasn’t had it easy – but she’s also not given it easily, either. She’s a divisive character with fans based on her tactless reveal of Marina’s pregnancy, as well as lying to her best friend, Eloise, about Lady Whistledown’s identity.
But no matter how you feel about her, there’s no doubt that her return means drama, drama and more juicy drama. And based on this photo, it looks like the actress is just as excited, back in her signature Featherington yellow and with her furry friend to boot. What will Lady Whistledown and Penelope have in store for everyone in the second season?

Something Has Grabbed Their Attention
What could they be looking at? No doubt an arrival at a social party that’s either a good thing or a bad thing – though, based on their expressions, it could be the latter. Could it be the Sharma family making their debut? But wouldn’t Anthony look happier about that? Maybe it’s a new family we don’t know about for season 2 – or the return of someone we REALLY don’t want to see…
Mama Bridgerton looks polite as always, while Anthony isn’t so skilled at hiding his emotions. Benedict, in true Benedict style, looks easy and breezy so no doubt it’s some sort of off-screen drama that involves his big bro rather than him! We’re excited to find out what they could be staring at…

A New Face: Edmund Bridgerton Comes To Season Two
Fans will know of Edmund Bridgerton based on name alone – he’s the father of the family, the late husband of Violet and the deceased husband leaving Anthony to take charge. So fans may be wondering why an actor has been cast to play him for season two… We can only imagine that some flashbacks might be in order! And that’s exciting. Or, plot twist, is he really dead (nah, he probably is, but you never know!).
Edmund is going to be played by actor Rupert Evans, so it’s exciting to think how new blood will bring to life such an important character that we haven’t met yet. Maybe information regarding Edmund’s earlier life and death will be shown, relating to his family having to grow up without him. We’ll find out!

Bridgerton’s Own Charlie’s Angels
One of the most standout characters in Bridgerton often come from the older matriarchs and powerful women. We love seeing a bad ass female character, and Bridgerton offers that in spades. This photo of the two best older women in the show gets us excited about what’s to come, with the actresses clearly having a whale of a time on set! Could there be a big season two scene where these three appear together?
Violet was always a great mother to Daphne and had a huge hand in season one when it came to Daphne’s relationships, so could it be she’ll help out her oldest son Anthony this season, or leave him to it? Lady Danbury was busy pushing the Duke of Hastings in the right direction, so what will she be doing now that the Duke is going to be absent this season?

A New Character In Theo Sharpe
It’s always exciting to see a new face in a new season, and it isn’t just the lady suitors that are making a brand new appearance. Theo Sharpe is going to be a new character for the season, and we’re already intrigued by him! Theo will be played by Calam Lynch.
So what do we know so far about Theo? According to Shondaland, Theo will be a printer’s assistant, with a hard-working personality. He’s also been described as an intellectual, so it sounds like he could be a mean intellectual opponent for some of the main players. Whether he’s going to use that power for good or evil, we’ve yet to find out, but it looks like he could be a good guy!

It’s High-Society Time For Newcomer Jack
For a show that’s so concerned with social status and etiquette, it’s no surprise that another new character will have a high social standing and have connections to the biggest elite. Enter Jack! Will his major family connections mean that he uses his relationships to help out those trying to be wed (like Anthony Bridgerton, perhaps?)
Or is Jack – played by actor Rupert Young – going to be a troublemaker using his social connections to ruin the main player’s reputations? There’s no doubt we’ll be seeing this face a lot in season two, presumably attending every social event and ball.

Queen Charlotte Is Back
Not only is The Queen herself back for business, but it looks like she’s also still invested in Lady Whistledown’s latest updates if this photo is anything to go by! This amazing shot also reveals the glamour and opulence we can expect again in season two when it comes to Charlotte’s stately rooms. Could she be hosting more suitors, Bridgerton family members or new characters here?
What will Lady Whistledown have to say this time? And will the Queen ever find out the true identity of her favourite Lady W? I would love to be a fly on the wall for Penelope Featherington and Queen Charlotte having THAT meeting. Will Charlotte be stirring up drama or watching it all happen from the sidelines? We can’t wait to find out!
