Bridgerton fans can expect more sex, more scandal and even more romance from the returning show after Netflix released a new trailer on Valentine’s Day.
The streaming giant has released the season two teaser trailer ahead of the show’s March 25 return, and it promises to be a no-holds barred extravaganza.
Sharing the trailer on social media with the words ‘love never plays by the rules,’ it opens with the voice of Lady Whistledown, the infamous gossip columnist narrated by Julie Andrews, as she says: ‘Dearest gentle reader, did you miss me?
‘As the members of our ton questioned my identity and means, this author has been doing but one thing.

Lady Whistledown was in the finale of season one revealed to be Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan).
Elsewhere in the short clip, the romance between Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) and new character Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley) is teased.

The trailer is awash with the colourful costumes and beautiful clothes typical of the Netflix series.

‘When Anthony begins to court Edwina, Kate discovers the true nature of his intentions — a true love match is not high on his priority list — and decides to do everything in her power to stop the union.
