‘I have always love you Colin. There is nothing that makes me happier than being with you,’ Penelope says.
Although their romance has finally blossomed, one problem persists as Colins sister Eloise threatens to tell Penelope’s secret.
‘You have not told him that you are Lady Whistledown?’ Eloise claims.
Penelope hits back: ‘Colin cannot find out the truth, Whistledown is power.’
Eloise then threatens: ‘If you cannot reveal it to him yourself, then I will reveal it to him myself.’
Complicating matters for Penelope is her rift with Eloise (Claudia Jessie), who has found a new friend in a very unlikely place, while Penelope’s growing presence in the ton makes it all the more difficult to keep her Lady Whistledown alter ego a secret.
Bridgerton made its comeback last week and according to What’s On Netflix the hit romance series is back and better than ever as it pulled in a huge 45.1 million views within just four days of going global on Netflix.

Within its first four days, Bridgerton Season 3 Part 1 reportedly scored 165.20 million viewing hours, equating to 45.10 million views.
Netflix described the views from the opening four days as ‘only the beginning’ and teased more to come.
In a press release released by them, they said: ‘Spring has sprung, which means it’s finally #Polin (not pollen) season. Part 1 of Season 3 of Shonda Rhimes’ Bridgerton debuted at #1 on the English TV List, racking up 45.1M views.
‘The series, which stars Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton, was #1 in 78 countries and reached the Top 10 in 92. And this is only the beginning.
‘With Part 2 set to release on June 13, who knows how high this wallflower will climb? PSA for the millions of fans having post-binge withdrawals: find yourself a support group, put on some music, light a candle and get into something comfy – more of the carriage-style scenes you’re craving will be here shortly.’
But after being promised that this season is the steamiest yet, viewers are made to wait until the closing moments of part one for the central love story to really kick off.
Series three focuses on the will-they-won’t-they flirtation between Penelope and Colin, but the plotline of best friends realising their true feelings proves to be a slow burner.
