Bridgerton 3: Eloise & Phillip - First Look + Latest News 2023 

Anyone else wanting Eloise’s new friendship in season 3 to be with the guy that is always bringing her places via carriage, the servant guy who is kinda cute 😂

I think Theo was a great plot tool to add. It opened Eloise up to the idea of finding a like minded man to spend time with, perhaps even falling in love. Sure, she has her family falling in love left and right, but Theo was the first experience she had on her own in a romantic way.

I honestly really hope she ends up with Theo, it's would create so much of a better story with more essence and obstacles of the two different words coming together.

Eloise and Theo made a fine pair. A like-minded couple from different socio-economic status and class background with radical ideals in an industrial capitalist society during the Regency wra is actually very powerful.

I've read the book, and I really like how Eloise and Philip develop their relationship. It is true that Philip at first only wanted a wife in order for someone to take care of his kids, but remember the reasons why he wanted that. First, he is a man who gives everything to make Marina happy but no matter what he did it didn't worked (Imagine you are in a marriage that no matter what you do, it felt a total bust that is just traumatic) , second there is this fear about his parenting ( I will not say too much ). When Eloise entered Philip's life Eloise didn't change at all; she still "talk too much and ask a lot of questions". If something had change it is introduced at the start of the book which is her maturity, wit and wisdom about children because "She has many siblings with a lot of nieces and nephews'' Philip on the other hand changes a lot in the process, Eloise is like this spark you can argue a fire that burns Philip's soul. He changes because of Eloise, the warmth Eloise gave to him. Philip is a man who respects Eloise for who she is. Remember there is a line in the book that "Philip needs to remind himself that this is Eloise, strong and magnificent Eloise" Philip Tiptoes when he is with Marina (book readers know why). Eloise gave him courage, Eloise made him open up about everything. Eloise made him accept that he is not his (blank). If you look at it, it has a lot of similarities to the Daphne and Simon story. It will be a beautiful story I assure you. Two souls that don't expect true love yet develop an unusual friendship. A friendship that makes them respect and honor each other equally. One needed patience to be complete and one needed acceptance in order to be fulfilled.

Also I am just saying about this for Theo. If you read the books in Eloise mentioned her first kiss was to a boy back in her youth. Theo might not be her future husband but could easily be her first kiss. Just say that she does have a first love but something happens and it doesn’t work out ( the class structure) that end up put a wedge between their budding friends and romance. We have already see the start of it with the way lady Whistledown exposed her friends how they both respond. The story arch might be showing how she doesn’t have a normal cultural court ship at the time and more of an exploring of her own heart to get to know who she is and what she wants is Eloise is a curious mind. And is smarter than her current times would have a “lady” be. ❤ she need and ambitious stable and life where she can grow up away from the pressure of society giving her a sense of freedom. which is who Sir Philip Cran is and offers. I love these book

I'm sorry the hear between Eloise and her footman CANNOT be ignored.

I hope they won't skip Benedict and Sophies Story I love their romance sm

Why not just go with Theo and Eloise. The class difference discussion and drama around it is so much more interesting than killing off a character just so she can marry another one of the same guys we already saw 3 times...

I think Philip will be Eloise's love interest in the end. That's why they introduced him to us in S1 and brought him back for a scene in S2. By making Marina a bigger character and Philip a seemingly sweet, stand-up (albeit nerdy and plant obsessed) guy, they make him a better pairing for Show Eloise. Viewers want to see her with someone worthy of her, who will appreciate her outspokenness and willingness to delve into topics with gusto the way he does with his botany. I know people don't want Marina to die so Eloise and Philip can get together, and I get that. But maybe they'll shake it up a bit? I thought Marina was an interesting, well played character but I wouldn't exactly say I liked her. It could be they write her dying as a way of her being reunited with her true love, George.

I think Marina is the biggest change from the book that will be difficult to address. In the book, she is a distant Bridgerton cousin whom we never meet and she dies by suicide. She is a fully developed character in the show, and killing her off will be much harder for fans.

They shouldn’t have introduced Theo if they weren’t going to do anything more with him and Eloise. Just saying…

I want Eloise to have a different ending. Her character ended up in the default life she didn’t want. Her spark is lost.

I'm in love with Eloise. Her and Benedict together just makes me smile. I don't mind if she ends up with Philip as long as they give her a series to develop plot. Don't need an excuse to hear her debates and quips. She will make a fantastic Lady Crane?

I really don't want them to kill Marina off just so Eloise can have a romance

They are already changing the books from the show so I really want Eloise to end up with Theo.

Eloise story is my favorite, please don't change it I want to see Eloise and Phillip together

I think she’ll become friends with marina this season. Eloise slandered pen for how she wrote of marina, I think she’ll write to marina about the situation and they’ll become friends throughout season 3. I don’t think marina will pass away until season 4, which will prompt eloise to write to Phillip as they grieve her. I also think she’s gonna have a very on again off again relationship with Theo until season 4.

I haven’t read the book and base this solely on my opinion of the show and the different character’s chemistry but THEO AND ELOISE have amazing chemistry!! 😭 They should definitely find their way back to each other again. If she somehow ends up with Phillip, living a life she always complained about not wanting, it feels like a loss for her character development? When she and Theo could live a happy, free life together without even being married or adjust to any societal demands.

I love Eloise and Philip in the books 💗 Probably my favourite because they showed how Eloise matured and helped Philip through his trauma and uncertainty as a father. I also think that Philip is misunderstood *spoiler* sorry for my english! 1) He sacrificed a lot for his brother's wish when he died; to marry Marina. He didn't cheat on Marina either, even though he didn't love her. (One of the reasons why Eloise fell in love with him. She saw him as a good person) Also, he blamed himself when Marina died, he didn't understand what was going on with her and wished he did so that he can help her get through it, but she didn't talk that much, she isolated herself for 8 years. When he tried to rescue her (lake scene) Marina expresses to him that she wanted to die to be happy, even the kids knew that she was happier when she's dead. 2) If you read the book carefully, you will understand that Marina knew what they were doing as husband and wife (s*x). It was their first and last time because Philip didn't think it was right, Marina didn't really cooperate, although she didn't stop him, he felt it was really wrong. He also said that she was always sad, always crying, quiet, etc. Eloise told Philip that when they were kids, Marina was quiet and always wanted to be left alone, didn't play with other kids and pretends to read a book so that no one would talk to her. (I think Marina has a mental problem since she was a kid, it became worst when she became an adult - she even had a postpartum depression which made everything worst, unfortunately, they didn't have enough knowledge of mental health back then, so they thought that she was just a sad person) So when Philip told Eloise that he failed as a husband to Marina because he never really saw her smile and laugh, Eloise told her that it's not his fault, Marina was always like that even as a kid - never laughed and smiled. 3) Philip loves his children very much, but is afraid of becoming like his father (violent), so he hired a nurse to take care of them. However, he fired the last nurse as soon as he saw her hitting the children. He felt terrible and apologized to them for not noticing it sooner. 4) Eight years of loveless marriage with Marina, he became unhappy. Then when she died, he immediately looked for a wife, not for love, but so that his children would have a mother. He just wants the best for his children and he doesn't even care if he marries an ugly woman as long as they have a mother who will take care of them. After a year, he asked Eloise if she wants to marry him, but when she comes to meet him and gets to know him for a few days (or weeks), he realizes that he really like her. At first he thought he just had to find a wife so that the children would have a mother but he fell in love and changed for her. I also find it funny that he expected Eloise to be ugly because she's a spinster, (according to her letters) but he was so shocked to see that she's pretty and wondered why she didn't marry anyone. 5) Eloise encouraged him to be a better father and praised him for the sacrifices he made for his family, even though he blamed himself for everything. That's why I love this book. Eloise matured, found love like her siblings, she learned how to be patient, healed Philip's trauma, and accepted his children 😢 even the Bridgertons love them. 6) Last, Philip love everything about Eloise. Even if she talks a lot all the time! lol

I like Eloise the most in the series.. I liked her because she's different, she's weird but in a good way ....... I haven't read the books and I am shocked she would be potentially becoming a mom to another;s children and tend to his gardens kind of dreads me. I really imagined she would choose to have a more eccentric life in the future. Like someone who is going to be travelling the world(heck i really imagine her in some ship, her hair flipping with the winds lol) and soon will find her love there. Someone who would share her interests. I can't believe she will be stuck in a house .... However, if that's what she will end up being, it's okay, I guess. As long as the husband would make her happy.

I will lose my bloody mind if Eloise doesnt end up with Phillip. It was my favorite book!

The reason why people who read the books don’t like Phillip is because he never wanted a wife, he wanted a babysitter for his kids so he could go and tend his garden.. that’s how he treats Eloise and she is trapped in the marriage after an indiscretion. Also Eloise does a 180 from the girl we loved to a desperate socialite who stays in his state and raises his kids. Eventually he becomes better but in the end her story is just sad Theo would actually be perfect for Eloise because he represents what she’s always been. Independent. Forward thinking. Feminist. Etc…

Penelope's romance with Collin happens at the same time as Eloise's. Their books exist at the same time

I have a feeling that Eloise will develop some kind of reletionship with Theo in season 3 or 4 and it will end up being a scandal, but we will see her mature through her experience. Then some time after I think that her story with Philip will begin. I also think it would be kind of interesting to see one of the Bridgetons to have multiple love interests, so i am looking forward to that 😊

If Eloise ends up with Philip that would be creepy as hell if she were writing letters to him now (isn't she like supposed to be like 16?) It would also be a terrible "plot twist" where Eloise learns to be content with high society and "manages to find the good in it" or whatever 🤮 The books suck. The further they can get from them, the better in my opinion. Season 1 kept the awful "forced child" scenario from the book and was rightfully criticized.

I want Benedict’s story 😍

Eloise and Philip is my favourite of them all! Theo should be a part of the triangle if needed - but they should kick him out for Philip! I don’t hold much hope that they would ever go through all the siblings though 😭😭😭 I’d be surprised if Netflix would keep up to that many season - Im just preparing for the disappointment

To Sir Philip With Love was one of my favorites in the entire series. Don’t mess with the story line. Also, being a Viscount’s daughter marrying a commoner would mean her mother failed her in regency times.

Another good thing about Eloise's potential marrige to phillip would be she's a short carriage ride away from her family at Aubry hall

Meb "Eloise and Phillip? ELOISE WITH PHILLIP?! NO I WANT ELOISE WITH THEO!"

I do not care if Theo is just a character that opens up her to romance. I love them together 😭

I would really love the show to follow the book! And maybe they can tweak the story a bit, not make Philip so unlikable like the book? They changed up Anthony and Kate's story for s2 a bit, maybe Eloise's story can change too? And like in the book she gets married at 28, then it leaves plenty of room to show us Colin and Benedict's story. And honestly? Really excited for Benedict's story

eloise and theo pls

**spoiler of book** Eloise’s book was probably my favorite of all the Bridgerton books. I read it while I was going through a really dark time, I was suffering with postpartum depression, and I could understand Phillip’s wife and the pain she was enduring. I think the story of Eloise and Phillip is important and I’m glad they aren’t changing it to Theo as the romantic love interest.

Shondaland already confirmed she won't change the Endgame Couples so. Let's go philoise. 🙋🏽‍♀️🎉💃🏽

I think the books called to Sir Phillip with love and it's my favorite one but it's been years since I read it. Eloise became my favorite character I love her personality. Oh wow but I don't remember anything about him being married to Marina although I knew he was a widow with children and Eloise went there I think to be a governor's.

Benjamin and Sophies story is my favorite. And sophie is one of my favorite characters i wanna see them already.

Can’t wait to see the next season!!

Can’t wait!!!🥰

I really liked Eloise's story in the books but I want Benedict next. He and his story are favs of mine. It may need a little updating just like Daphne and Simon's but I need them to hurry it along., I am so ready for it. He should have been this year in book order, and I understand why they changed it, but please don't make me wait another two years for Benedict and Sophie!!

Thank you for now piquing my interest in the Eloise book!

I really like her with Theo. They both could be a good match.

I remember that i thought anthony will always stumble to serena's feet, but rather he falls in love with kate, that is the best season ever for me

I don’t mind it being Phillip I just hope they do it more justice on screen

I doubt they'll change any of the endgame romances, they might change how the relationship develops, or even change the personalities a bit, but I think if there's one thing they keep is who each Bridgerton sibling ends up with. Maybe I'm a little biased when it comes to Eloise and Phillip, and I know this is an unpopular opinion, but they are one of my favorite couples. I think they both change in the relationship, she grows up, and so does he in a way.

Thanks for your video

What if they introduce Theo just to kill him off??? They did say that Eloise's season is SUPER sad, what if?????

Eloise is my best character in the series. I want the best for her. To find love and feel happy.

I hope El and Pen mend their friendship this season 💜 There is a new character that I thought maybe pen becomes friends with but maybe it’s El. The new character is a young widow who enjoys her new freedom as she’s got wealth and doesn’t need to marry again..or something like that.

Eloise is my second favorite of Bridgerton siblings But my most interest romance is Francesca. I don't know why I like this kind of that love story lol 🤣🤣 and also wait for Hyacinth with Lady Danbury's grandson

I can’t wait to see what they will do with Eloise and Phillip they are my favorites couple from the series!!!

I personally think Theo will be the love interest for Eloise for season two. I think she will start crushing on him and maybe start a secret relationship but something happens and they dont end up together. I think if this happens then it will change Eloises mindset on marriage and children.

"Well, I can't be a teenager forever" - this. Both Eloise's and Penelope's actresses are in their thirties, it's a matter of very short time until their character will have to be more mature women without breaking the suspension of disbelief.

I think that theo is a better fit for her. Philip doesn’t seem like good for her and in the end, though he does love her, becomes a babysitter for his children. Eloise is a strong-minded woman and I feel like eloise and theo would be a better fit because of how similar they are.

Damn, the ship war between Eloise/Phillip and Eloise/Theo is the biggest ship war I've seen in this fandom and it will continue on until it comes to a head (aka Eloise's season). Y'all just giving Netflix what they want, which is DRAMA (AKA legit conversations, of course, lol). Keep at it, I guess. XD

i want eloise and footman john hahaha. such an underrated duo

I hope it just follows the books. I'm not saying that the books were perfect but I think that fans of the show will still like the love stories created in the books and the book fans will be happier for it if they do follow them.

I really don't care about the book now, I think it's about time they changed some things from the boom. Theo is a better match for Eloise than Philip and please they shouldn't push the Penelope and Collins romance on us. It doesn't spark anymore. Me waiting for Benedict part

too many thoughts !! Ahhh, just waiting!! I'm looking forward to it!! God, please, thank the world for this!! ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

But I need to see Eloise step up to those kids! 😂that was hilarious

I read them all so long ago and fell in love with them. It would be nice to be able to reread all the books again. Unfortunately between being on a fixed income and my eyesight getting so bad I've missed my love of reading. It would be changing the book from what they say here. But wait the end of season 2 seems to suggest that Penelope is going to start back up the gossip column

Let Eloise end up with Theo . We need it , we deserve it .

Eloise and Philip! Don't change the book. It could go very wrong.

The book Eloise isn't as good as the Netflix Eloise. In the books she ended up with Philip for the reason since women couldn't freely get to know men in their society Eloise had to marry Philip her family (Anthony) made it clear because if she doesn't she'd be ruined. I remember she was disappointed with Philip before the marriage escalated quickly. Clearly Philip didn't even try with Marina in the books he was only there with her he rarely even tried to get to know her mind. There are signs Marina was depressed and didn't want to be a mother in the books it's obvious she got worse everytime she gave birth. Take note Eloise was lonely which led her to Philip and when she is having doubts she buried it immediately and tried to make things work since she's more bubbly it worked.

😮oh I can't wait!

I know we might not get Theo as endgame but i hope she at least fools around with him😭❤️

I don’t think they would have introduced Phillip if he wasn’t going to end up in Eloise’s orbit. I think Theo was a formative influence on Eloise but Theo and Eloise being “endgame” doesn’t make sense imo. ESPECIALLY since her relationship with Phillip has the potential to push a LOT of boundaries in many ways and offers Eloise a bigger opportunity for growth as a character based on the books. Grief, disagreements, children, emotional development, going against expectations of society… Eloise and Phillip’s storyline has MUCH more potential for drama AND a redeeming HEA than Eloise and Theo.

A brave and a wise character will just end up to someone like him?

Eloise and Phillip is a very beautiful story, hope they do not change it.

I get Marina dies in the book but I don’t want to see her go😭she’s been through so much!! I want to see more of her

And here I am, still thinking "where is my Sophie?" 😩

U can imagine how much philoise stans want this season. The way how they connect polin and philoise through colin and phillip friendship (it was even a surprise for us as book readers of the saga). The actors (claudia jessie and chris fulton) have instantaneously chemistry without been in the set together (they were together only in the wrap party). I CAN'T WAIT FOR PHILOISE.

Just bring it , I’m ready for the next episodes.

I think with Phillip and Elloise they should do their story over a few seasons having a book told as the main story such as with season 3, and 4 and 5 say having a friendship develop through letters with Mariana with Eloise in season 3 and having her pass away in season 3 with Phillip continuing the letters throughout seasons 4 and 5 allowing Elloise time to grow up and fall in love with him through the writing ✍️ and then do season 6 all about Phillip and Elloise. Kind of how they did with Penelope's infatuation with Colin through season 1 &2 you knew they were meant for each other but loved watching it play out and now they will have their own season.

havent read the books, but when i had first heard that el would be forming an unlikely friendship, i thought it would be with Cressida cowper, and if this is so then the hint to it in season 2 was when El repeats during an argument with Pen what Cressida used to call her; "an insipid wallflower indeed".

I'd be thrilled and impressed if they ditched the book plots for Eloise and gave her a female romantic interest and eventual companion.

I hope they don't change from the book. I hate when they do that.

What if she does wind up with Theo but they kill him off and then Eloise ends up with Phillip and they bond by grieving their old loves? That’s my guess at least.

Eloise and Philip was my favorite book in this series. I hope they don’t change a thing!

The letter writing can wait until season 4 in my opinion. In season 3 they MUST have the masquerade ball

I'm hoping they fix Eloise's and Pen's friendship this season. I mean, yes, give me the easter eggs for the relationship with Phillip, but I want them to develop that slowly, like in the books. Especially because we haven't seen Benedict's love story yet and I want to see that too.

I hope they drastically change the story from the books. TV show Eloise is very different from book Eloise. It's going to feel really weird for it to play out the same way.

I am super excited to see Eloise grow up into the woman she is going to become I would probably tell people to read her story before actually watching it on the series Cause Eloise is probably the saddest of the bunch cause with Marina Than it won't be as tough watching it cause you will know a little already Marina was always going to be the sad and unsure of herself character too Eloise and Philips story is amazing and won't be sorry to see them together

I'm really looking forward to seeing the Bridgerton brothers "defend" Eloise's honor. Iykyk 🤣

it would be brilliant if the show used theo’s character to cement eloise’s idea that she’s meant to live her life alone, as she tried with someone as like-minded as theo and it seems to not be working out. but once she begins writing letters to philip she’s almost in denial of their love being a possibility, specially with how used to being alone she’s become. idk

they changed eloise a lot in the series, they really gave her hyacinth's personalitiy lmao

Team Theo for sure ❤

Phillip is so bland. Theo is such a cutie. And he loves her for her mind

Eloise and the actress who plays her ❤❤❤I love this character

Eloise marrying Philip would lead to some fun bromance moments between him and Collin too, we've already seen that :P

I’m still team theo

Hoping for theo

Between this season and next, Colin, Eloise, and Benedict all meet and fall in love, not to mention Francesca marrying her first husband. Really hoping they balance it out.

I'm ready

Eloise was always fun to watch, a story line with her would have many surprises

I'll keep saying this- For Bridgerton, Eloise does not need a BORING Theo. What she needs is Sir Philip. Their chemistry in the book was off the charts. Nothing more, nothing less.

I really like Eloise so seeing her in love, the conversations would be great. I am looking to see Eloise start her own lil business, even start a political career or something where her brains could be at work... I have not read the books 😅

Her ending up with Theo would be so much better than the books. She is different than in the books and keeping it the same as in the book would honestly be so disappointing and a step back for her character

I have to say the Photoshop skills on this channel are top tier. Excellent clickbaiting lol
