Of all the Bridgerton siblings, Benedict seems to be the one offering the most support. He is close to Anthony and often ends up bonding with Eloise. Luke Thompson pointed out how the siblings are both each other’s best confidants and, at the same time, anxious reminders to each other of their own responsibilities and duties.

Luke Newton (Colin Bridgerton)

As for the next Bridgerton sibling, we know well how he got his heart broken in the previous season of the Netflix Original. After Colin took off when he learned Marina’s true intentions of marrying him, fans were left wondering what he was up to. It was also then that he found out about Penelope’s feelings for him.
