“Bridgerton is returning for seasons three AND four!”
Fan were absolutely delighted by the news and took to the comments section in delight.
“Absolutely buzzing! Bring on season 2,” one gushed.
“Long may it continue, I’m fully addicted,” a second chimed in.
While a third simply gushed: “Best news ever.”
Bridgerton broke Netflix records when it dropped late last year.
The eight-part series, which launched on Christmas Day, proved to be Netflix’s most-watched show in 83 countries including the UK, France and the US.
Bridgerton has snatched the top spot from the previous record-holder, fantasy drama The Witcher, which received 76million streams in its first 28 days.
The show follows Daphne Bridgerton, the eldest daughter of a powerful and wealthy family, as she tries to meet a man to marry.
However, following the death of her father, Daphne must be chaperoned by her possessive older brother Anthony (Jonathan Bailey), who is also struggling to find love.
Unfortunately for Daphne she becomes a target for London gossip queen Lady Whistledown’s scandal sheet.

She then comes into contact with the insubordinate Duke of Hastings (Regé-Jean Page) and they come together to develop a plan that they hope will keep her safe.
Alas, fans were gutted last year when the hunky Regé-Jean Page confirmed that he would not be returning for season 2.
Bridgerton season 1 is available to stream on Netflix now.
