Bridgerton has successfully cemented its name as one of the most beloved Regency romance television series of all time. It is a title that gave us so many vibrant costumes and multiple love stories to admire. The most appreciative thing about it is that each season brings a new lead couple and doesn’t unnecessarily stretch the love story of a single pair. The first three seasons gave us some of the most gorgeous central romance stories, and the upcoming season will focus on a more grounded tale of Benedict Bridgerton and Sophie Baek. While fans are awaiting Bridgerton Season 4, Netflix has already revealed the next love story that will win hearts in Season 5.

Netflix recently revealed that Bridgerton Season 5 will start filming in March 2026. It will see the romantic angle between Eloise Bridgerton and Sir Phillip Crane.
Eloise is the fifth child and second daughter of Edmund and Violet Bridgerton. She is seen as a Bridgerton rebel who, unlike her siblings, knows how to call out things she finds unworthy. She is someone who feels that the existence of a woman isn’t all about getting married and accepting everything to please society. She is basically an inspiration for every woman.
On the other side, Sir Phillip Crane is a quiet and composed man who married his deceased brother George’s fiancée, Marina, to protect her and the unborn child she was carrying. So, he is someone who spent most of his youth burdened by duty. After Marina’s death, the twins’ responsibility fell to Sir Phillip.
In the books, Eloise and Marina are distant cousins, so after the latter’s death, the former wrote a condolence letter to Phillip. That was their first interaction. The duo started conversing, and slowly the normal chit-chat turned into something deep. They eventually fell in love, and Phillip proposed to Eloise.
Bridgerton fans are already awaiting the romantic tale of Benedict and Sophie in the fourth season, and after this news, they are even more hyped up to see how things turn out for Eloise and Sir Philip in Season 5.
