Bridgerton season 3: Plot
Sources have cited that the third season would follow the third book in Julia Quinn’s season. The first season was based on the first book, and the second is likely to be based on the second book. The third book follows the story of Sophie Beckett, a woman born into privilege. However, she has no clue about her fortunes. Her father is an earl, and her stepmother treats her no less than a servant. Sounds more like a Cinderella story, right! Sophie one day manages to sneak into Lady Bridgerton’s masquerade ball, where she meets her prince charming. The prince charming turns out to be Benedict Bridgerton. She at the ball feels like royalty. Will the third season follow this another cinderella tale, or would it cook up something else? The third season is likely to surprise the fans.
