Fans all want to know the same thing about Bridgerton's upcoming season – will the new episodes be just as steamy as the first series?

Series two will drop later this week on March 25, with fans all desperate to see Jonathan Bailey take centre stage as the next central Bridgerton character.

Daphne Bridgerton and Simon Basset’s love story, portrayed by Phoebe Dynevor and Regé-Jean Page, was the core theme to season one – fans couldn’t get enough of the saucy scenes between the Duke and Duchess.

The next batch of episodes will be dedicated to the character of Anthony Bridgerton – portrayed by the aforementioned Jonathan – and newcomer Kate Sharma, played by Simone Ashley.

An industry insider told the tabloids: “Devotees who loved the racy show’s first helping were probably hoping the follow-up would contain more sex, not less.”

Last week, Jonathan Bailey spoke about the bizarre prop used during intimate moments of the show – sparking speculation that the saucy nature of the show was to continue, however now it's being reported that the sex scenes may be limited.

The source continued: “Most of the bedroom scenes were previously supplied by Phoebe Dynevor as Daphne Bridgerton and Regé-Jean Page as her husband, the Duke of Hastings. But he doesn’t appear in series two and she is more of a background character.

The publication was told that scenes between the new central lovebirds of the show "never progresses beyond flirtation and a nearly kiss" – dashing fan dreams in the process.

The new season of Bridgerton will arrive on the streaming platform on Friday, so we'll let you be the judge!
