Ever since Netflix's swoon-worthy series Bridgerton hit our screens, fans can't get enough of the high-society scandals centred around the family.
And following the excitement the incredibly popular series - adapted from Julia Quinn's novels - officially has a third and fourth season coming our way, the streaming service has now revealed season three will stray from its source material.
While the first two seasons followed the books - first focusing on Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor) and then on Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathon Bailey) - the third will focus on Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington’s love story, instead of Benedict Bridgerton.
Â
"It is only fair that in this author's third year chronicling the marriage mart, Mayfair’s social season should find its focus on a third son… as well as a third daughter," Netflix posted to announce the news.
At the end of season two, which dropped on Netflix back in March, things were not looking good for Penelope.
Â
In the season finale, she lost her best friend, Eloise, and she overheard her longtime crush Colin telling a group of his friends that he would "never dream of courting" Penelope, causing her to leave a ball, heartbroken.
Bridgerton's first season was a runaway hit for Netflix, having been watched by an estimated 63 million households across the globe.
