Bridgerton Season 4 first look photos revealed, featuring Penelope and Colin's highly anticipated return

Could there be a more perfect Valentine’s gift than a first look at Bridgerton Season 4? For longtime fans, absolutely not.

Yes, we're talking about the next chapter on Netflix, this time an adaptation of Julia Quinn's An Offer From a Gentleman. Bridgerton Season 4 treated fans to its first glimpse on Valentine's Day 2025, and all we can say is romance is already in the air!

Quinn's book is a Cinderella-like romance in which Benedict Bridgerton sets out on a journey to find love. The most notable scene in Cinderella's tale is a large masquerade ball at which she meets her prince.

Similarly, in the Netflix series, Benedict encounters his lady love, Sophie, and the journey begins. Since fans have been curious to take a sneak peek into the fourth chapter, the first look reunites them with familiar characters like Penelope and Colin, now embracing parenthood.

Not only this, but one of the photos also hints at Violet’s evolving romance with Lord Marcus Anderson and introduces new faces, including Lady Araminta Gun and her daughters.
