Bridgerton Season 2 will be with us on Friday but unfortunately, Regé-Jean Page’s Simon won’t be involved in the next outing of the hit period drama. And thanks to creator Chris Van Dusen, we now know why.
Speaking in a recent interview, here’s what he had to share:
“We do reference Simon. In the very first scene of Season 2, Daphne mentions she left her husband and baby at home [to be there for Eloise’s debut]. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out in terms of Rege being a part of the second season, but he will always be Bridgerton‘s Duke. He’s not going anywhere in the world of the show. And just because we don’t see him, it doesn’t mean that he’s not there.”
Bridgerton Season 2 premieres on March 25th, only on Netflix.
