Yeah, but that was social calling hour in general not just suitor calling hour. Unlike today, especially post pandemic where no one is welcome uninvited but Amazon, we're barely dressed if you work from home, In that era, this was the time you were to be dressed and prepared to receive any society before you went on about your day. Just because you've only seen the popular girls being waited on by suitors - because they are all at home marriage season waiting on suitors- doesn't mean no one else can come by.

Also, Jessica Madsen has been reposting hella Creloise content so I just know she fighting in the writing room for an endgame.

am i the only one that feels so sad and devastated for Cressida? her mother is physically abused (the bruised arm moment was so painful), she got ridiculed when Penelope got praised for the same thing? unhappy and restricted in her own life, Debling’s absence in part 2. he would’ve been perfect cause he likely isn’t engaged in gossip at all, and wouldn’t be interested in the whole ‘unmask the lady whistledown’ thing and could support her. i was hoping she would run out to him. or if anything, Creolise would make more sense as the lgbt plot than whatever the writers have in mind (however i’m not so sure anymore after how they’ve complextly ruined their friendship)

[@KateEatonn]

I thought I was the only one that noticed this when watching the new episodes

[@ichraumauf5532]

I was wondering if Lord Debling is actually gay, because he was not offering romance or love, but a rather sensible relationship with the wife protecting his household (and reputation), while he’s abroad having fun aka doing research. So…

[@mzlove4121]

😂 THIS!!... My thoughts exactly😂

[@ichraumauf5532]

@@mzlove4121 So, if Cressida was actually lesbian, that would have been a fine lavender marriage. And I think, he didn’t want another man in the picture for his reputation and maybe not bring children into that situation, where he was away for long times, maybe even the wrong 9 months…or maybe he didn’t want children full stop. I wonder if Colin knew or expected, that Lord Debling could be gay and after the kiss didn’t want Penelope live a sexless life as she was clearly into men.

[@melodyal3357]

I was quite sure Cressida was secretly in love with Eloise and Eloise being gay without yet realizing this fact; she’s the one who actually gives me really gay vibes. I expected them to have romance and their story to develop. Quite disappointed scriptwriters deprived us from their potential romance. But frankly this season 3 I really felt empathy for Cressida, I felt sorry for her because she had no one to help her, all by herself with horrible parents, living hell at home and Eloise abandoning her when she needed her the most. I hope that Cressida gets her happy ending after all🙏 The fact season 4 comes in 2026 is craazy, can’t wait this long!!😭

There is also a critical point of this theory. In the show, the newest season, season 3; *Why would the story be revolving around Cressida now?

First, I love the theory that someone commented about how they pictured all or most of the Bridgertons as bi because they all have qualities you can experiment with in the writing. I always pictured Eloise as gay because she rebels against the rules of society and one final form of it is going outside the mold snd finding a girlfriend. But some say they picture her as bi which also makes sense because Eloise is mainly looking for someone that suits her whether through her intelligence or her values.

​@@zaram9825This has got to be most ridiculous comment I've ever read. " I don’t want the only non-social conforming female, to be gay. It’s such an overused trope" - Can you name me literally ANY OTHER examples of this "trope" because I fail to see what nonsense you're talking about. . Also- what? How is her being a lesbian a trope? Are feminists not allowed to be gay anymore? Tropes and stereotypes can be annoying, sure, but the solution isn't to limit representation. "And worse, it sets a perspective that only queer people will object to the patriarchal society." WOAH! No way! Really? That's because most of the time, IT IS queer women who reject patriarchal society because we do not need a man to function in our lives like society loves to tell us. Of course straight people can be feminists and reject patriarchal society, but this imaginary world where gay people aren't predominantly the ones who step outside of the box is hilariously untrue. "Lack of same sex platonic relationships" is the funniest fucking sentence I have ever heard. Where have you not seen those in "recent works"? Where? Because I can name hundreds of platonic ones. Lucas and Dustin from Stranger Things (2016), Leslie and Ann from Parks and Rec (2010), Troy and Abed from Community (2009), Jess and Cece from New Girl (2011), the list goes on. And these are all works that have come out in the past fifteen years, that's pretty damn recent. Also you may have forgotten that Eloise has Penelope, her FEMALE BEST FRIEND, and their relationship has NO romantic connections. But no- you must live in a fantasy world where gay people get everything and are constantly represented in media. Making Eloise queer wouldn’t reduce her role as a non-conforming individual babe. Instead, it would add depth to her character and show that people of all orientations can challenge societal norms. Eloise being queer wouldn’t mean she’s challenging norms solely because of her sexuality, but rather, it would make her a more complex and interesting character!! They can both co-exist, but I understand if your little brain can't comprehend that. Please try better next time to hide your homophobia because this comment wasn't the serve you thought it was!

@@maximiniminimaxi7453 I see your point and I do agree. Altho, in my opinion... Cressida will be the bridge back to Pen and Eloise's friendship. Cressida will attempt to take credit and say that she's lady Whistledown (we all know she's not) and possibly blackmail Pen (unsure abt this one). This could possibly strain Eloise and Cressida's relationship (I mean, I can see that Eloise isn't happy about Cressida's attitude towards Pen/she didn't like Cressida being mean) that can lead back to Eloise and Pen to reconcile. Also, if y'all watched the teaser for S3 part 2, there's a short clip of Eloise and Cressida arguing about lady Whistledown's identity. again, this is just my opinion. (besides, even if Eloise and Cressida form a romantic relationship.. Eloise is bound to marry Philip either way)

Second, thanks to fan fic and one video, it is amazing how some of us shipped Eloise and her footman which can still be part of a good arc for Eloise. Everytime he came on screen (the five seconds) this season, I wanted Eloise to follow him out and talk to him or something. That is a side plot I wouldn’t mind watching.

(Spoilers) in the books Cressida steps forward claiming that she is Lady Whistledown, but it would make no sense as to why would she would turn “herself” in for money when the true Lady Whistledown would be punished, not rewarded. My theory is that in some way Cressida will find out who the true identity of the writer is. And knowing that Penelope means a lot to Eloise she will try to help protect them. Likewise I’m spouting absolute nonsense, but rewatching a lot of the scenes, why would they have so much development for Cress and throw all of it out of the window?

As a queer, I dont want this. I love seeing intimate but platonic same sex relationships. Thats why I love Eloise and Penelope's friendship.

I also love how Eloise and Cressida's relationship both humanizes and softens both of them. Both ladies are going to grow as and into real people b/c of this relationship. While I love Eloise (and honestly would want a daughter like her) she was insufferable in the early seasons b/c her desire to reject society made her inconsiderate of her one true friendship.Eloise's relationship with Cressida is good for everyone involved.

Although from what I understand about said source material, and what they already did to deviate from it with the Marina/ Crane Bros. plot line, there's definitely room, and her story as originally written is the least interesting or compelling to me. She marries a guy with kids from a conventional loveless marriage of the era and aristocracy. Benedict's premise I am more attached to bc he breaks the class barrier which I would be sad to see go.

[@availanila]

Cressida is also on a more equal footing with Eloise going toe to toe eith her like a champ. I loved their friendship even more than Eloise and Penelope. I hope they become platonic soul mates if not lovers.

[@MsBlue68]

I think Cressida is going to end up with Debling since they have a common experience of bad families and bonded over this. Eloise is destined for Sir Philip.

[@jinisshortforaisingioro5324]

I would be disappointed if Eloise end up with Sir Philip. Not every female have to get married and take care of children. If the show isn't suppose to be historically accurate, I don't see why it should stick to the books as book Eloise and show Eloise aren't really the same character.

[@BigenZrays]

Exactly !! Its like the show is creating breeders only ,fall in love fúçk eachother nd have kids !!?? Really

[@kresspqressie7722]

If cressida end up with lord debling, it's just like they're irl or they're not? I forgot lord debling irl gf lol

[@plantagenetsurvivor8771]

Y’all never red the books, huh?

[@SerPounceToebeans]

I didn't realize it until now, because I was more focused on Polin than anyone else including Lord Debling. But I don't agree with Eloise and Cressida's friendship, I definitely wouldn't agree with them being romantically together, that's because Cressida is a self-entitled a$$hole. I really hope Elosie befriends Pen again.

[@kelseabelle9726]

But it's the way her father brought her up belittling her and molding her into having walls up we learn this season she can be nice she just needs help.

[@gabrielleduplessis7388]

Same. I like the friendship for Eloise’s arc, but I don’t feel Cressida’s cruelty will change.

[@christiannachel2710]

I disagree that she's unredeemable, there have been worse characters in TV shows that have been redeemed. Cressida is just a bully, she def has a chance for a serious change of heart.

[@etheriaa]

While I would love for this to become true (or for Benedict to have a male love intetest), i don't think it's going to happen. I think the showrunners will opt for one of the side characters to give them the gay storyline and will be too cowardly to do it with one of the main characters

[@MariaJoseRangelUwU]

No, it is not going to happen because Eloise already has a book partner and that is the only thing they wont change.

[@dbanks4916]

Cressida is strong willed, selfish and lonely. Eloise is strong willed, a black sheep and a good friend... It would take someone strong like Eloise to tolerate Cressida's rough edges long enough to forge a true friendship. If they turn out to be lesbians, so be it. However, I saw 2 women becoming unlikely friends because they have so much in common, regardless of their differences. That would make more for a far more interesting story, than them becoming lovers, as female competitors can actually still compete while ending up becoming true friends.

[@MrHihihihihi19]

I think 🤔 Cressida should claim to be lady whistle down i think 🤔 it would give her a advantage against her parents

[@evegowan7227]

IVE SEEN THIS SINCE DAY ONE

[@poplar21]

I mean im suprised that all of them arent gay

[@hopehaswings388]

I think this may be half right. I think Cressida may be a gay character, but Eloise will not feel the same and instead may be an ally and confidant. This way there can be a strong gay character, while leaving the main romances intact. Marrying Debling, may give Cressida the space she needs to explore her true self.

[@childensstorytime]

It would be good to see Elouise and Cressida together

[@ave_rie]

Early on, I actually was hoping one of the Featherington girls or a couple of the 'boys' in the society would have a queer romance in at least the same level of spotlight as the Mondriches have. I even thought for a second that Marina was only sent to the Featheringtons for a lavender marriage. Only time will tell if the higher ups would think a gay lead Bridgerton couple would be financially advantageous, especially nowadays and the demographics of the books' fanbase. It might be financially safer for them to have Eloise experience the freedom she wants in the route of women's rights and access to 'men-only' professions. Sadly, my hunch is the best we'll get is a side story a la Brimsley and Reynolds (their story would make a good spinoff tbh) or a gay romance but only as a detour of some sort to the main lead a la Benedict.

[@80sdreamwave32]

😂😂 But no way just friends she marrying Sir Philip

[@fehntyakinsuli3227]

Shonda already said she is not changing the main ships. And besides how fictional this is there is still a regency society that will not accept this.

[@lilywinterwood]

that regency society has already done away with overt racism, though? and also there were known to be queer couples at the time just look up the ladies of llangollen

[@maximiniminimaxi7453]

no she never said that. The showrunner changed and the story can evolve

[@lauramipe2955]

Eloise is not gay, but it appears in season 3 that Cressida is

[@jadestorm5550]

Eloise can be bi

[@theatrechick4ever]

​@jadestorm5550 Eloise marries a man in the books. She has her own book. She could be bi, but it would turn her season on its head entirely

[@shravyashetty3491]

​@@theatrechick4everno it won't... She could be bi... Have a temporary thing with Cressida... Thanks to olden times, Cressida gets married off to someone else... Eloise falls for Philip

[@heathermichael3987]

I already guessed that.

[@gyrosik8851]

I'm not sure if doing Lumity again would be a good idea, I think it would be better if Cressida apologised to Penelope first

[@thelegacyofgaming2928]

I REALLY hope this happens! They are GREAT together, and Eloise hates men

[@AlexandraZe]

No, she doesn't. She's just socially awkward.

[@riotoews7853]

Why would she hate men? She has 3 older brothers and a younger brother so of course she doesn't hate men. She just doesn't want to follow societal rules

[@reading1713]

@@riotoews7853 lol if the requirement to not hate men is having brothers then why do so many folks claim feminists hate men? Most of these feminists have brothers too.

[@riotoews7853]

@@reading1713 then they have issues. The underlying truth is there is abuse that happens that leads them to hate men. There can't be any other reason why these feminists hate men unless there was some kind of negative experience.

[@eggiemybaby]

I still like her with Theo though

[@lil_doggo_of_doom]

Cressida is being sent away

[@sarickacampbell2642]

I have no problem with always being a matter fact. When am I guilty pleasures is reading about Eloise and Penelope. As for CRESSIDA and it’s a no for me . If Eloise wants to be gay, she can share Penelope with Colin. That’s the only acceptable suit

[@lizzyrank5405]

Idk I still dont like Cressida, she disliked Pen for no reason, just like pens family. Eloise's family is a big name so itd make sense that shed wanna be in good favor with Eloise.

[@Karinakrp]

Don't think so. Don't think they would go that far from the book. So unless her name i Sir Philip Craine, its not gonna happen. But the friendship is nice to see, because Cressida became a much more deep charactor, because of their friendship. Read the books.

[@laraseliwe7006]

Benedict can be bi though
