Not just because of her Whistledown work but because she loves Colin for who he is.&quot;On her own, Coughland said love is a &quot;feeling of being able to be yourself and a feeling of safety and kindness.&quot;Eloise, Penelope’s best friend, is played by Claudia Jessie. She shared Eloise’s and her own take on love.&quot;Eloise would probably define it as freedom,&quot; said Jessie. &quot;I think she&#x27;d want to associate love with freedom. And then me, love is acceptance. That feels like the word that comes to my head.&quot;From its series premiere in 2020, “Bridgerton” has showcased diverse talents, something not commonly seen before in period romance dramas.Season two’s leading lady Simone Ashley — who played Kate Sharma opposite Jonathan Bailey’s Anthony Bridgerton — is a fan of the show’s female empowerment and inclusion message.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/17159598696041Z8A1399.jpg,1Z8A1399.jpg" style="width:455px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt="" cast="" members="" Simone="" Ashley="" and="" Jonathan="" Bailey="" at="" the="" season="" premiere="" in="" New="" York.="" Netflix=""/>&quot;Bridgerton&quot; cast members Simone Ashley and Jonathan Bailey at the season 3 premiere in New York.
