‘Bridgerton’ Star Claudia Jessie Addresses Potential Queer Storyline: ‘You Can Experiment More With Eloise’ | Video

“There is room for Eloise to go in a bit of a different journey,” the actress tells TheWrap ahead of Season 3

As “Bridgerton” fans speculate how Eloise might find her happy ending, star Claudia Jessie admitted her character has more room to “experiment” with a less traditional ending.

“I think what’s good about Eloise is that there is loads of room for her to play,” Jessie told TheWrap at the Season 3 premiere in New York City on Monday. “You can experiment more with Eloise.”

The Netflix series has already deviated from Julia Quinn’s original ending for Eloise, which saw her finding love with Sir Phillip Crane, who instead offered his hand in marriage to Marina Thompson on the show. With the book’s storyline no longer in the cards, fans have theorized that “Bridgerton” could embrace a queer romance for Eloise — or bring back printer’s assistant Theo Sharpe (Calam Lynch), whose societal standing is well beneath Eloise.
