Executive producers of the series include Betsy Beers and Shonda Rhimes. Rhimes gave a slight tease on what might also happen in the new season of Bridgerton, in an interview with Variety. She stated, “I think there’s a powerful, interesting, romantic couple at the heart of it. They’re an incredibly interesting and exciting pair. I like to watch them…Our goal, if we do our job correctly, is you are going to be as invested and excited by that couple as you were by the couple of Season 1.”
