In a long-running story like Bridgerton, it often happens that cast members say goodbye before the actual series ends. Since season 2, for example, we have had to do without the Duke of Hastings (Regé-Jean Page) on Netflix. Now, after season 3, it looks like another Actor to resign before season 4.
Bridgerton without Albion Finch: Will season 4 lose more than Philippa’s husband?
Philippa (Harriet Cains) is Penelope’s second eldest sister from the Featherington clan and is not exactly known for her wit in Bridgerton. Nevertheless, Albion Finch (Lorn Macdonald) her. After a long marriage that failed due to financial issues, the two are finally a married couple in season 3. With the birth of their daughter at the end of the current season, one might think that a rosy Netflix future lies ahead of them.

Albion Finch. What started with cheese and a sneeze became a character that is very dear to my heart. Thank you to everyone who made this job unforgettable.

A third possibility is that Philippa suddenly finds herself without a husband or with a replaced husband when she returns. We may not know for sure for two years, because Season 4 not until 2026 should start.
