Who are the Bridgerton siblings?

THERE are eight Bridgerton siblings in total.

Here's who they are in age - and alphabetical - order:

Anthony - the oldest Bridgerton is played by Jonathan Bailey. He was the main focus of season two and after a lot of will-they/won't they he ended up marrying Kate Sharma.

Benedict - the second son, played by Luke Thompson, is the focus of the third book. However his romance is not the main story featured in season three of the Netflix drama, which will instead focus on his younger brother, Colin

Colin - Luke Newton plays Colin, who is a favourite with the ladies. He is also the object of desire for Penelope Featherington, who is also the mysterious Lady Whistledown. However as the season starts he is unaware of this fact, and ready to hunt down the anonymous gossip writer.

Daphne - season one introduced us to Daphne, the oldest female Bridgerton sibling. Played by Phoebe Dynevor, viewers watched her romance with Simon Bassett, the Duke of Hastings, unfold, gaining actor Regé-Jean Page many fans.

Eloise - book-loving Eloise has delighted viewers with her rebellious spirit and tomboy ways. She made her debut in society during the second season and was horrified to find that her best friend, Pen, was Lady Whistledown. Eloise is played by Claudia Jessie.

Francesca - Hannah Dodd has been brought in to play Francesca in season three, as she makes her social season debut. Francesca was played by Ruby Stokes in the first two seasons.

Gregory - Gregory is played by Will Tilston. As yet he has not played a key part in the series as he's too young to be presented before the Queen. His story features in book eight of the series.

Hyacinth - the youngest Bridgerton sibling is played by Florence Hunt. Although younger than Gregory, Hyacinth's story is featured in book seven.

Bridgerton bonk-fest

By Felicity Cross

WHEN Bridgerton landed during lockdown, it swept us all into a world of bejewelled gowns, lavish balls and endless bonking - and the world went mad for it. 

Even the sexless second series didn’t damp down TV viewers’ lust for the Regency romp and fans have eagerly anticipated the arrival of the third series.

Fortunately, they won’t be disappointed. 

The opener finally gives us some action from gorgeous series two newlyweds Anthony and Kate in scenes that would make your granny blush.

There’s drama and intrigue as the hunt for Lady Whistledown hots us, and laugh out loud comedy from the chaotic Featherington family.  

But ultimately the season belongs to new romantic leads Colin and Penelope, whose will-they-won’t-they love story is fun, flirty and utterly believable and its, ahem, climax at the end of episode four will take your breath away.

Is Bridgerton still must-watch telly? Corset is.
