QUEEN CHARLOTTE’S GAY BUTLERS SERVE A FULL SPOFF

Sce the ma Bridgerton seri sticks closely to the married-wh-heirs-on-the-way happily-ever-after formula that the novels do, ’s unlikely they’re gog to heavily feature a queer romance unls they ci that this versn of the world, England legalized gay marriage 200 years before anywhere else the world. In Bridgerton Season 1, we meet a closeted gay artist! But Bridgerton Season 2, all we got were a few extras actg, well, extra, and the subtext that some of Benedict’s fellow art school stunts might be gay.

Benedict, wh his gay art iends, and Eloise “I Want More Than to be a Wife” Bridgerton were givg off “closeted baby queer” vib. There were hop that maybe Benedict’s gallivantg wh Sir Henry Granville (Julian Ovenn) would precipate a gay dalliance for the bohemian Bridgerton or that Eloise would realize she loved, say, Penelope. That said, there are a few other characters wag the wgs and Julia Qun’s future books who uld also gay thgs up future seasons of Bridgerton….

There is one nonil gay supportg character who shows up Julia Qun’s later books, but there’s also a key love tert who hontly giv off big pansexual energy.

GAY MOSW MOSW CY GUI

Michael Stirlg is not gay the Julia Qun books and yet he seems to give off the most nonilly queer vib.

Could Any of the Bridgertons Get a Gay Happily Ever After? Will none of the Bridgertons ever be gay?!?

My vote for the gay Bridgerton siblg, though? You n easily see that as a gay love story! Ever sce readg the character breakdown for young Agatha Danbury (Adjoa Andoh), to be played by Arsema Thomas, I n’t help but wonr if Lady Danbury’s big love story — the one she boasted about to Kate Sharma — is gog to be a gay one.
