Will Bridgerton's Queen Charlotte be dead in the next season? Here’s the latest update
Queen Charlotte's fate in the beloved Netflix series Bridgerton is on the minds of many fans. As a central figure in the show, her presence adds a unique charm and authority that is hard to imagine the series without.
Historically, however, Queen Charlotte’s real-life death in November 1818 looms near the current timeline of the series, which is set around 1815. This raises the question: Will Bridgerton follow history, or will it carve out its own path?
An Alternate Dimension
Showrunner Jess Brownell provided some insights into this during a conversation with TVLine. She expressed deep admiration for Golda Rosheuvel, who portrays Queen Charlotte. “I worship Golda Rosheuvel, and I think she’s so fantastic in her role. Shonda [Rhimes] and I, internally, have just decided that we’re in an alternate dimension,” Brownell said, as per a report by TV Line.
This statement suggests that the showrunners are not strictly adhering to historical timelines.
Diverging from History
The idea of an alternate history in Bridgerton was further elaborated by Brownell, who explained that this divergence began with the queen and Lady Danbury’s efforts to make society more inclusive, as depicted in the Bridgerton prequel series Queen Charlotte. “That’s where we went into another timeline,” she noted. “There’s potential that in this timeline, Queen Charlotte could live forever:, as mentioned in a report by TVLine.
