Benedict at the Salon
Ok, this is not the steamiest scene in all of Bridgerton history. But it is worth mentioning as it is one of the only LGBTQIA+ scenes the series offers us (so far).
When Benedict attends the salon of Sir Henry Granville, an artist the Bridgerton sibling has recently befriended, he finds himself in a surprising situation. He’s searching for a room for him and the local modiste, Madame Genevieve Delacroix, but stumbles upon a space occupied by two men. Sir Granville and Lord Wetherbe are together!
Benedict has not yet explored his sexuality, but he has been exploring relationships outside of the societal norms leaving us eager to see what will come next.

The Duke and I
It’s the finale we have been waiting for! Daphne and Simon have finally passed all of their communication tests and are ready to start a family. The sweet moment is a satisfying ending for Bridgerton fans and a perfect start to the Duke and Duchess’ happily ever after. They even welcome baby Augie into the world nine months later.
