About Kate Sheffield

Many book enthusiasts are excited to follow the romance between Anthony and the headstrong Kate as he searches for love. In the book, Kate and her half-sister, Edwina arrived in London during the social season. Upon their arrival, they caught the eye of Lord Bridgerton. According to Netflix’s tweet: “Kate is a smart, headstrong young woman who suffers no fools—Anthony Bridgerton very much included.” The second season will focus more on the witty, fun, and troublesome relationship between the stoic Bridgerton and the intelligent Kate.

The second season does not have a release date yet. But show creator, Chris Van Dusen told in an interview with Vanity Fair; the casting is already in progress, and filming will begin in spring.

Meanwhile, fans can keep their fingers crossed or maybe read (or re-read) the second book The Viscount Who Loved Me while waiting for Netflix to release the episodes.
