As if we couldn't get any more excited for the return of the almighty Bridgerton - starring actress Claudia Jessie has revealed that her character, Eloise Bridgerton, is set to "shake things up" when the show returns, admitting that she is "excited" about how it will all unfold! The news comes just a month after it was officially announced that fans could expect a second series of the Netflix romantic drama.

Speaking to Harper's Bazaar about what juicy twists and turns we can expect from the hit show's new season, the star said, "I'd like to see her debut, because she's going to do it and she's going to shake things up and basically take the p--- out of it."

She continued, "I'm excited for that. But I would really love to see Eloise just really own every space she's in. She had this vision that her sister was the perfect debutante, and then Eloise comes sort of like crashing through with her own personality.

"She is given a little bit more freedom to be herself, with Phoebe being in a high-status relationship, and it gives Eloise a bit more room to have her own space."

It comes as no surprise that Eloise is set to cause a bit of a stir, with the character quickly becoming a fan-favourite due to her rebellious yet loveable nature. Speaking on her character, Claudia said, "She's simply hilarious. She's a rebel, and she's a lovable rogue, and she's ridiculous and quick, and I think that's why people love her."

This is not the first spoiler we've heard about the next season of Bridgerton, with it being revealed that Sex Education's Simone Ashley is set to have a lead role!

Although there's no official release date for series 2 just yet, we are hoping to get our next fix of Eloise, Daphne and, of course, The Duke of Hastings by the end of 2021.
