"Is Mama Bridge down for the swirl???" 🤣🤣🤣 Also, I can totally relate to pausing right in the middle of a show/movie to look up some character/celebrity's zodiac sign? LOL. And finally, I rewatched your carriage scene reaction 3 times. You swooned like me over "in fact, preferring sleep because that is where I might find you." SOOO romantic. Then your "Oh, we're doing this. How far away is the house?" LOL. Your text of "letting Colin play the human pianoforte" HAHAHA. And YES - that consent nod meant everything to so many of us women! Can't' wait for your part 2 reactions!

The marriage mart was where the eligible young ladies were basically put on display in an attempt to catch a husband. This was usually done when the lady was 18. In this case, Penelope was 17 in her first season which makes her 20 now. The actress who plays her is actually 37. Usually the ladies were in search of a suitable match but usually the higher the man's rank the better. Of course, the brides usually had a dowry, a sum of money promised to whoever marries her from the bride's father. The agreement was usually a written contract between the father and the potential husband. Sometimes the woman was not consulted at all. That is why the separate bedrooms for couples. Sometimes they hardly knew each other and there was a door in between so they could visit when trying to have a baby. Sometimes there were only public appearances merely for the sake of appearances. If a family had a high rank but were broke, they might offer a daughter with little or no dowry and hope that their rank was sufficient to entice someone with money. Usually the wife's duty was fulfilled once there was a male child to inherit the title. However, they often had more children due to the high child mortality rate. Nowadays, the phrase "an heir and a spare" are used, which is why Prince Harry named his book "Spare." William was born to be a future king, while Harry seems to feel he was born in case something happened to William. As far as the UK is concerned, the Princesses only inherited if there were no boys. However, that changed recently when the Parliament voted to keep girls in the line of succession. Princess Charlotte will be the first girl this applys to. In the past, the boys would have been first regardless of their birth order - George, Louie and then Charlotte. But with the new law they will succeed in their birth order. Once George has children, they will come before Charlotte and Louie. Back to some of your questions...Widows could take lovers if they were discrete. Wives, after producing the necessary heirs might stray as well, but again discretion was of utmost importance. Disgrace and scandal on the family name were not tolerated. The higher your rank, the more you could get away with. And men, could basically do anything. Mistresses were kept by providing a home, servants and payment of clothing, food, and other bills. Please do not call yourself stupid. It is not stupid to not know something. It is only stupid when you refuse to learn. I only know half this crap because I have been reading romance novels since I was 12 and I am now 57.

[@justjordan497]

Glad you liked it! Still waiting for them to show up!!

[@mathgirl24]

Your reactions were hilarious! I was so with you. 😂

[@justjordan497]

thank you so much!!

[@NoranAzmy]

Americans say "Anthony" with a TH sound and Brits say it with a T sound.

[@justjordan497]

OMG THANK YOU!! My friends were arguing about this when this video dropped!

[@justjordan497]

also my friend who argued the same thing as you said that she hopes both sides of your pillow are cold tonight

[@fe-real]

Not you watching Bridgerton, but also thinking it could turn into "Ready or Not" in a split second. Hunter or Hunted?! 🤭❤😂 Everyone of us do watch their clips with some concern though, cause baby! We can never be too careful. On guard at all times! 🫥🤷🏽‍♀️🥴

[@justjordan497]

When I tell you I was STRESSED!!!

[@kendravaldez8862]

So according to the actress for pen she was too overcome by how hot Colin was during the hot air balloon scene that she forgot to move and run 😭

[@itsonlysound]

Yeah didn't Nicola say that Pen was so 'horny' for Colin that she was prepared to risk death😂😂

[@justjordan497]

See that makes more sense, I'm right there with you Pen 😂!

[@joannavargas368]

I love your reactions, following now! I’m just like you loving all the music and wishing for someone who “prefer sleeping cause that it’s where he can find me” 🥹 I love this season!

[@justjordan497]

omg thank u so much 🫶🏾!!!

[@silviahannak3213]

If you can't be a Bridgerton..be a Lady Danbury ! Love her Witt. Sure she has her own Problems but she is on Pointe. Not so always smiley smiley like Violet B.

[@renee176]

If not mistaken, I think that £5,000 then would be over $400,000 in todays money.💰💰💰

[@justjordan497]

!!!!! I wouldn't wanna rat out Pen but I gotta get that BAG 💰

[@galeperry]

more! i believe it would be worth upwards of $700k today

[@justjordan497]

MORE?!?!?! Oh Pen, this is really testing my loyalty!!

[@galeperry]

@@justjordan497 haha! can’t wait for your part 2 reaction! i am forever salty at all the hate season 3 is getting and frankly this was a breath of fresh air ✨

[@NoranAzmy]

@@justjordan497 Yeah it's definitely closer to $700K. Back then it would have been enough for a person to live comfortably for the rest of their lives (most people could live modestly/comfortably on 30 pounds a year).
