Bridgerton S2 Cast Simone Ashley and Charithra Chandran Break Down the Wedding Scene | Netflix

[@amethystr7412]

Simone is so sweet. Always compliments her co-stars and praises them. You can really see through her that she’s very kind. So gorgeous. A very beautiful human being inside and out. Can’t get enough of her.

[@DeathGodPain96]

For sure she did. I was was yess girl you better act. I was mad with her.

[@aray337]

Oh, absolutely. It was made all the better by the fact that Charithra did such a good job embodying a sweet, innocent Edwina in prior episodes. To see Edwina's anger come through was sooo cathartic because the whole proposal/marriage angle was giving me major anxiety.

[@zurzakne-etra7069]

It was so interesting having an insight into how those scenes were thought/written and the choices that were made during filming. I wish we had Simone and Charithra's commentary on the whole episode.

[@plumebee3]

Charithra is an absolute delight. Her portrayal of Edwina was exquisite and I very much enjoyed The Choice. Excellent showcase of talents for both her and Simone. I miss DVD commentaries, what I would give for a Directors commentary track and a cast commentary track

[@lonael6699]

Simone Ashley is one of the most beautiful women i've ever seen in my life, she's dead gorgeous. Her brown eyes, skin and hair are just flawless. Also, her personality is truly amazing, she talks so elegantly and always compliments her co-stars, even when they're not sitting next to her.

[@adrea5295]

I also find it interesting how Kate mother bracelet fell on edwina’s veil.. almost like Kate mother was intervening in a way. Saying that they should’ve been getting married. Beautiful performances all around

they did an amazing job at playing kate and edwina. as an audience watching edwina just blow up like that definitely made me feel uncomfortable and uneasy so you can just imagine how kate felt having received the biting end of it 😭 amazing scene, definitely did a good job at keeping us all engaged. my heart was pounding by the end of it! much love to simone and charithra ❤️

[@danielzhou2972]

I remember not really caring for edwinas character until this point, she was kinda like Isabela in encanto at first, just a pretty sister. But that scene omg I was blown away

[@lenochod6]

that is really good point, they are very similar characters, they have to be perfect, they have pressure on them.

[@ITSMN]

Simone and Charithra are literally soo so talented!! And I also loved the little details in this episode like the part where edwina’s dress and her moms too are in slow motion when she runs away!

[@kimdye4609]

I loved all the slo mo scenes in this series! Especially with Kathony!

[@sgr5665]

Of course Edwina had every reason to be angry, but i really felt bad for Kate in this scene. It was Edwina and Anthony who pursued this marriage when kate's been reluctant all this time and yet it's her who takes all the blame. She doesn't even point that out to defend herself because she loves her sister. And her mother just cast her away like that. Then Anthony finds Kate just to ask her to convince Edwina to marry him and breaks her heart. AGAIN. She was indeed all alone.

[@megigulbani5304]

Hundred percent agree

[@poulomi__hari]

Yah.. our poor poor Kate. This is why Kate felt so close to home. We have all been there- being blamed for everything, and being abandoned by everyone. At least Edwina was there for her at the end. Even though she was in anger, she made sure her sister wasn't left alone.

[@aray337]

I mean, Kate's not entirely taking the blame here. After Edwina initially leaves, Anthony tries to convince her to go through with the marriage by essentially saying that they would make a good team to fulfill their roles, and when Edwina comes back later to inform Anthony and Kate of her decision, she refuses on the grounds that she deserves more than just filling a role. So, Anthony definitely gets some of the blame, but it's more overt towards Kate because (as Charithra says) Edwina loves Kate, so she feels more betrayed by her. If I was Mary, I would also ask Kate to leave so that I could handle Edwina in that moment. Plus, let's not forget that Kate DOES push to get the marriage through. Anthony says he will call off the marriage in E5 during the "bane of my existence" scene, and then again at the end of E5 in the forest. Kate pleads with him not to do so, and that is when Anthony commits to making the marriage happen.

[@sgr5665]

@@aray337 she pushed it only because Edwina told her that she loves him and of the situation which also breaks my heart for her. There was no other option at the time. Otherwise Edwina would've been left with dishonor, scandals and no dowries. So she begged the man she loves to go through this marriage, holding back her tears. No self interest involved, only sacrifice. About the blame part, i meant it between Edwina and Kate. Edwina lashed out Kate wants him all by herself and fools her to believe she only desires her to be happy, which is totally not true. I was like YOU SHOUL'VE LISTENED TO HER IN THE FIRST PLACE SHE TOLD YOU THOUSANDS TIME HE'S NOT FOR YOU. But I also understand that she was so mad because she deeply loves her sister. Honestly, although I adore Anthony, he should've received more than that. He suffered after, so there's that. The show sealed all conflicts quite well, but between ep 5 and 6, Kate was so alone

[@sgr5665]

@@aray337oh and I don't doubt Mary loves Kate dearly, but when a problem comes to the surface, her first reaction is to leave Kate alone with a harsh look and go after Edwina. I don't blame her for that, but it hurts nonetheless.

Well Daphne said to Anthony something like if you love the person it's like all word dissapears when you two are near or together everything else doesn't matter. What's why when he was focusing on Kate he was seeing empty church. At that moment he realised he really loves her.

[@angelinasimte]

everything 'bout this series is just so addictive..the actors have done an excellent job fr!love it!!🖤

[@dwikcahyani324]

Couldn't agree more

[@gianellab.4953]

I LOVE how much Charithra understands her character and emphasizes her love for Her sister. It definitely helped ease some of the discomfort I had with this sequence. By the end of the day, the problem here is that S2 did not *show* just how much Edwina cared for Kate. She had every right to feel betrayed, but it still looked WAY too much considering all that Kate did and cared about her. If only we had seen Edwina equally concerned for her sister before, this sequence would have passed a lot better. Overall a great season and SO happy to get to know these two talented actresses!

[@mishripettinger6242]

Edwina was never allowed to worry about Kate, it's why they kept so much hidden from her, to keep her happy, they wanted her to think everything was ok

[@nicford548]

Never watched an episode of Bridgerton but season 2 was just so special mostly because I found Simone Ashley simply stunning!! This was a joy to watch.

[@AgnimitraSutradhar]

I was thinking Edwina's confrontational part was so raw ... It makes sense now that Charithra actually channeled those feelings & it was actually exhausting for her at the end... that's why it felt so real , well done 🔥

That was a very awkward wedding with the groom in his own headspace imagining the sister as his bride.....I just love how Edwina stood up for herself and what she truly wanted when she found out....or it would have been so messed up after the wedding with Anthony still harbouring feelings for Kate. Edwina is amazing in that scene of self-discovery.

Its amazing because I agree with Simone, I saw what she's talking about. The proud sister look, the fact that she's speechless to see her sister speak for herself for once. I am seen as Edwina by my sister and we talked about that, in our life she did have the same feeling when I stood up for myself when before I would keep it all inside. It really made me feel connected to her even though I am more like Kate inside, I was seen like Edwina to my family. It is so interesting that she mentions it and it was intentional.

I love Simon (Kate) and Charithra (Edwina) describe the mood and mental state of each character for the scene. The problem in S2 emphasizes more on the psychological war between each character. There are many layers to each character's mental state and it's good to have content like this. Make the viewers more understanding and intense when they see the wedding scene

Kate nailed her shock in that scene as well and I feel like the scenes where Kate and Anthony are arguing, even the petty arguments, she absolutely NAILED it, as did Jonathan of course. And the seductive tensions between them two, they were magical! I hope to see all three of them again in new context in season 3 :D

Kate had good intention for Edwina but her strong desire to make it work so badly for her sister make Kate forgot about her own feelings and holding those feelings almost took her life away felt bad for Kate the older sister as well for Edwina to seeing that sister bond breaking. Anthony Brigerton really coming into his own at the end.

[@Chaseieday7555]

You ladies are just awesome!!! I thoroughly enjoyed every moment. It was all and more than I expected and I can't wait to see more!

[@Alex_Tribe]

I read the book after watching series 2 (several times). Spoilers ahead for the book. My thoughts when watching the show was how could Edwina not know that Kate was into Anthony; she knew that Anthony didn't really love her; and why didn't she care about Kate's love story. I have 2 sisters, so I personally think Edwina had always been the young sister who was protected from everything and only really thought about herself, and Kate took too much on and scarificed so much for her family (including being willing to deny her own love for the sake of her sister's happiness). Yes, Kate should have been honest with Edwina from the first moment she felt the spark with Anthony; but it is Anthony who foolishly proposed to Edwina after his own (happily married) sister pointed out that he was in love with Kate and after they had a very hot i hate you but secretly love you moment in the office. My heart broke for Kate when she had to see that. She got put through a lot by Anthony and her family so I was team Kate all the way and my heart broke for her in this episode. If you read the book, Anthony does not (foolishly) propose to the sister of the woman he loves, and Edwina figures out there is something between them when they stay with the Bridgertons at Aubrey Hall. So I prefer that sister story compared to the show twist ...i just think Edwina was too naive. It was nice to see her finally grow up in this scene and start opening her eyes to what was happebing around her. ...i mean the tensions between Anthony and Kate after their first dance (forced by Edwina) and he gets upset after she says she's going to India. Lady Danbury, Daphne etc could see what was happening. Why couldn't she?!One of my fave lines from her in the show is: "was I truly that blind?"I shouted yes in response cause she was. Even if she didn't recognize Kate's feelings (and she should have as her sister), it was clear that Anthony wasn't in love with her and that they weren't very compatible. I loved Daphne in this season and how she saw their bond immediately- what a good (perceptive) sister!

[@tracybrown448]

I agree the show should have followed the book more with edwina because I just found her character annoying and blind as a bat 🦇 they should have brought sienna back for a love triangle The sister story was wack
