Regé-Jean Page Will NOT Appear in Season 2 of Bridgerton!
This is HORRIBLE! He literally MAKES THE WHOLE SHOW! I’ve been saying for years that Shonda Rimes ruins shows. I’ll never forgive her for what she did to Scandal. Ugh! Rumors are that he’s going to be the next James Bond, but damn, still sucks.
Netflix and Shondaland announced on Friday that star Regé-Jean Page’s character will not appear on the show’s upcoming second season, revealing the news via a notice from Lady Whistledown.
“Dear Readers, while all eyes turn to Lord Anthony Bridgerton’s quest to find a Viscountess, we bid adieu to Regé-Jean Page, who so triumphantly played the Duke of Hastings,” the message began.
“We’ll miss Simon’s presence onscreen, but he will always be a part of the Bridgerton family,” it continued. “Daphne will remain a devoted wife and sister, helping her brother navigate the upcoming social season and what it has to offer – more intrigue and romance than my readers may be able to bear.”
