Do Colin & Penelope Ever Get Together? Bridgerton Book Future Explained
Warning: Contains SPOILERS for Bridgerton season 2 and Julia Quinn's Bridgerton book series.
Netflix's Bridgerton season 2 sees Colin and Penelope's relationship at its lowest point to date, but do they ever get together in the books? Based on Julia Quinn's second Bridgerton novel, The Viscount Who Loved Me, Bridgerton season 2 sees the eldest Bridgerton son Anthony (Jonathan Bailey), attempting to resist the charms of Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley). This romance is contested right from the offing in Bridgerton season 2, seeing the Sharma and Bridgerton clans clashing as Lady Whistledown continues to stoke the gossip mill of Regency-era London and several character arcs ending on tantalizing cliffhangers ahead of Bridgerton season 3.
One such narrative thread is the burgeoning romance between Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) and Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan), with the third Bridgerton son beginning to see his long-time friend in a different light. The first shoots of this romantic feeling are more than reciprocated, with Penelope harboring a long and deep-seated attraction to Colin across the two Bridgerton seasons to date. Yet despite the pair's apparent romantic progress, Bridgerton season 2 ends on a sour note for the couple, with Penelope overhearing Colin saying he would "never court" her to his assembled friends. This assertion has deeply disappointed fans (alongside breaking Penelope's heart), with Bridgerton audiences desperate to see the pair become an item in future seasons of the Netflix series.
