What is Bridgerton Season 4 about?
This season, all eyes turn to Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson), who steps out from the sidelines and into the heart of his own love story when he encounters a captivating stranger at Violet Bridgerton’s masquerade ball — the enigmatic “Lady in Silver.” Sophie Baek (played by Yerin Ha), she is far from a typical debutante; a maid with a hidden past and sharp wit, Sophie brings determination and ambition to the ton’s glittering world. Her unexpected arrival challenges Benedict’s long-held reluctance to settle down, setting the stage for a romance that’s part fairy tale, part rebellion — and entirely irresistible.
