Eloise and Benedict share a particularly special relationship too, one that makes them very much at odds with their more marriage-focused family. note: Below are spoilers for who’s having a queer awakening in Bridgerton season 3B. This season, we see her grow closer with Cressida Cowper (Jessica Madsen), which brings a nice depth to Cressida’s Mean Girl antics.

We meet Michael at the end of the finale episode — except Michael is now Michaela Stirling, who’s still just as scandalous. But yeah, there's definitely room for all of that."

While 'Bridgerton' Season 3 is all about Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) and Penelope Featherington, we can hope that Eloise takes the spotlight in Season 4.

How to stream 'Bridgerton'?

'Bridgerton' is available to stream on Netflix.

While Bridgerton’s alternate history means the show is already much more racially diverse than other Regency-era romances, the show so far has still been very heteronormative and deeply patriarchal, even with Queen Charlotte ruling.

A Reddit user explained, "The fact someone wants more to life than marriage and kids and doesn't want to conform says a lot about their personality but not much about their sexuality. However, Penelope aka Lady Whistledown caused an end to the brewing romance.

Despite her involvement with Theo in Season 2 and her marriage with Sir Phillip in Julia Quinn's books, fans speculate that she is gay.

Fans want Eloise Bridgerton to be queer in Netflix's 'Bridgerton'

As 'Bridgerton' hasn't had any queer love story so far, fans on social media have assembled to express their desire to see a gay love story.

In Season 1, fans wanted Penelope and Eloise to end up together.

He reappears in Season 2 as Marina Thompson's (Ruby Barker) husband whom he has to marry after his brother, George Crane, dies during the war, leaving Marina pregnant.

Sir Phillip has been missing in Season 3: Part 1 and it is highly probable that he won't appear in Part 2 as well.

With Phillip married to Marina and missing from the narrative in the current season, we wonder if the creators have diverted from Julia Quinn's books to give a twist to Eloise's love story.

What does Claudia Jessie say about her character in 'Bridgerton'?

Jessie enjoys it when people make speculations about her character.

…unless it’s Eloise

Eloise (Claudia Jessie) has rejected societal conventions from the very first season. Speaking to Refinery29 Australia recently, Jess teased that there will "absolutely" be queer stories in Bridgerton going forward.

Both Eloise and Cressida confide in each other about wanting to live their own lives without being married.

When asked about possible queer-coding in Eloise and Cressida’s relationship, Madsen told Decider that she’d be stoked if that was the case.

“I absolutely love that,” she said. grow up," while another added, "She’s so lesbian she literally despises the touch of a man you can’t tell me she’s not gay!"

Despite the growing speculations of Eloise being gay, some fans jumped in to state the opposite.

Eloise is yet to have a same-sex romance in the show but many queer fans have identified with Eloise's story. And we see them seeking out each other’s company at events, in a way that almost plays out like a traditional courtship. She and Penelope once bonded over this, back when Eloise was inspired by Lady Whistledown.

Female characters who speak out against marriage and traditional social norms often end up coded as queer when it comes to most movies and TV shows, particularly ones with historical settings.

But in the books, John dies an unexpected death, and her book focuses on getting her together with his cousin, the rakish Michael Stirling. “That would be the best!

They later have two kids together but Marina tragically dies leaving Phillip widowed.

As a widow, Phillip reaches out to Eloise and, while they initially clash, sparks soon begin to fly and love blossoms. it turns out that Francesca is the bisexual Bridgerton sister!
