IS PHOEBE DYNEVOR'S LEAVING ‘BRIDGERTON’ BY GRABBING A NEW ROLE?

Deadline reported that actress Phoebe Dynevor is set to star in Exciting Times, a book-to-TV adaptation for Amazon Prime Video. While we couldn't be more thrilled to have more of Dynevor on our TV screens, we couldn't help but ponder, what does this new role means for her presence on Bridgerton? Dynevor became a globally recognised actress after stepping into the lead role opposite Regé-Jean Page (who played steamy Simon, the Duke of Hastings) for season one of the Shonda Rhimes-produced period piece. However, as we learned following Page's exit from the series, Daphne and Simon's love story will take a backseat for season two. "The show centers around the Bridgertons and there are eight books," Dynevor explained in May. "Because I think the fans of the books know that every episode is about a different sibling." With that being said, this means Daphne is likely to become less of a prominent figure as the seasons go by.
