Jonathan Bailey and Regé-Jean Page Had a Mini Bridgerton Reunion Dressed Like Modern-Day Rakes
The Bridgerton Heartthrobs Reunite
Despite Regé-Jean Page’s departure from the cast group chat, it seems he is still close with at least one of his former Bridgerton costars. On March 8, Page was captured in a cheerful moment with season two’s lead, Jonathan Bailey, at the CAA pre-Oscars party held at the Sunset Tower Hotel. The duo posed with their arms around each other, sporting casual T-shirts under their suit jackets, exuding the charm of modern-day rakes.
The Leading Men of Bridgerton
Both actors have portrayed the leading men on the Regency-era series. Page captivated audiences as the brooding Duke of Hastings in season one alongside Daphne Bridgerton (played by Phoebe Dynevor). Bailey and newcomer Simone Ashley then mesmerized viewers with their dynamic chemistry as Anthony Bridgerton and Kate Sharma in season two.
Regé-Jean Page’s Departure
Page’s decision to exit the series after season one left fans in disbelief and the show’s executive producer, Shonda Rhimes, in shock. In September 2021, Page shared that he had respectfully exited the cast’s WhatsApp group chat, explaining that he didn’t want to create an awkward situation for his former castmates.
Jonathan Bailey’s Future on Bridgerton
Unlike Page, Jonathan Bailey will continue his role in the upcoming season three. However, the focus will shift to the friends-to-lovers storyline between Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) and Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughan). The Bridgerton cast continues to evolve, and fans eagerly anticipate the show’s return on May 16.
