Bridgerton Season 3 Star Has Conflicting Feelings On Show's Sex Scenes
Bridgerton season 3 star Hannah Dodd has conflicting feelings about the possibility of having to perform her own sex scenes in the series. After appearing in shows like Harlots and Anatomy of a Scandal, Dodd will join Bridgerton season 3 as Francesca Bridgerton, the sixth child in the titular family.

Though Bridgerton season 2 had far less, it still sparked a conversation over its depiction of romance and sex. It seems all but guaranteed that the series will continue to factor these moments into its story.

She describes Francesca's story as "a complete mix of the both [steamy and tortured]." Dodd then explains:
