Did You Know Kim Kardashian Was "Part Of The 'Bridgerton' World"? Details Here

On Tuesday, actress Nicola Coughlan, who plays Penelope Featherington in the Netflix series Bridgerton, tweeted about one of the show's biggest fans - Kim Kardashian. Nicola said that the Kardashians were a massive inspiration for the Featheringtons. Nicola's tweet read: "As the world's number one @bridgerton Stan does @KimKardashian know that the Kardashians were a massive inspiration for the Featheringtons and we talked about them all the time during our fittings? Because I feel like she should know this." Kim Kardashian's response was nothing less than expected. She said that she was "freaking out".

The two continued their conversation on Twitter, with Nicola saying that that they would love to have Kim Kardashian at one of the fittings. And then the actress revealed that Mr Pearl, who made Kim's corset for the Met Gala, made the very next one for Lady Featherington for the Netflix series. "You've been part of the Bridgerton world for longer than you know!" added Nicola.

'Bridgerton' has already been renewed for season 2. Alongside the announcement, creator Chris Van Dusen had said of its appeal: "I think the show really provides an incredible escape for audiences at a time where that's exactly what's needed. Bridgerton is this lavish, vibrant, steamy Regency love story; it is about romance, love and joy; I think all of those things are really universal themes people are responding to."
