The Season 3 finale of Netflix’s "Bridgerton" delivered a groundbreaking twist that left fans both stunned and thrilled: a queer romance revelation. This unexpected turn has introduced new dynamics and possibilities for the beloved characters, particularly Francesca Bridgerton, whose storyline took center stage.
Francesca Bridgerton, played by Hannah Dodd, has finally moved out of the background and into the limelight in Season 3.
Originally portrayed by Ruby Stokes in the first two seasons, Francesca’s character had been relatively underdeveloped. However, Season 3 marked her societal debut and a significant shift in her narrative.
In line with Julia Quinn’s sixth book, "When He Was Wicked," Francesca meets and marries John Stirling (Victor Alli), a quiet and shy man who shares her love for music. Their union is depicted as a gentle, companionable match, and they plan to move to Scotland.
However, their marriage quickly becomes more complex.
In the finale, Francesca and John’s marriage takes a surprising turn. After their wedding, their first kiss—a chaste peck—leaves Francesca looking confused and disappointed. This moment hints at deeper emotional undercurrents and sets the stage for a shocking revelation at the Featherington Ball.
John introduces his cousin, Michaela Stirling, to Francesca.
