Are Bridgerton stars Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton dating?

Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton’s chemistry in Bridgerton is nothing short of captivating. As Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton, respectively, the pair bring an undeniable spark to their on-screen relationship, enchanting viewers with their incredible chemistry.

From the moment they first share the screen, Coughlan and Newton effortlessly convey the unique dynamic between their characters. Penelope, with her intelligence and wit, is instantly drawn to Colin’s charm and affable nature. Likewise, Colin is intrigued by Penelope’s sharp mind and genuine kindness. The chemistry between them is evident in every scene they share, as they playfully banter and share heartfelt moments.

Across the first two seasons of the show, their relationship was a bit one-sided with Pen being the only one in the pair to have romantic feelings for Colin, who harshly put Penelope in the friend zone in the show’s early seasons.

That’s all about to change in season 3, though, as Netlfix adapts the fourth book in the Bridgerton franchise: Romancing Mister Bridgerton. The book finds the relationship between Colin and Pen shifting into a romantic one, which is why Polin shippers are eager to see their chemistry goes beyond just playful banter in the upcoming season.
