'Bridgerton' star Claudia Jessie says she would 'love' for Eloise to 'just date people' instead of get married on the show

• Warning: Spoilers ahead for season two of "Bridgerton."
• Eloise actress Claudia Jessie told Entertainment Weekly that she wants Eloise to not get married.

"Bridgerton" actress Claudia Jessie said she wants her character Eloise Bridgerton to break with tradition when it comes time to tell her love story.

"I'd love if Eloise could just change the mold a bit," the 32-year-old actress told Entertainment Weekly. "And just have a boyfriend. It not be because they're going to get married, but Eloise just be the person that introduces the concept of the partner."

"Like just the boyfriend or the girlfriend, rather than here's your suitor, now you get married in a week," the 32-year-old actress continued.

The Netflix hit drama follows a 19th-century noble family, with each season spotlighting one of the eight siblings as they find a suitor to marry. While season one focused on eldest son Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey), second-eldest daughter Eloise also entered the marriage market this go-around.

While she didn't enter into a courtship, she did form a bond with a working-class boy named Theo Sharpe (Calam Lynch), who she meets while trying to find the town's gossip writer Lady Whistledown.

"I'd love if Eloise could just be like, 'Oh yeah, I'm dating this guy, Theo Sharpe, pretty cool,'" she told EW.

"She could just date people. If anyone can get away with it, it's Eloise," she said. "Wouldn't it be cool to see her maybe date someone, and then maybe date someone else? That can happen, that happens in life all the time. I'd love to see that pushed across on the screen."

While Eloise doesn't end up with Theo in Julia Quinn's Bridgerton books, Jessie told EW that she hopes the two characters are able to rekindle their romance in future seasons of the show.

"That would be amazing. Calam was great," Jessie said. "He was really beautiful to work with."

Eloise and her older brother Benedict's (Luke Thompson) future romances have been of particular interest to fans, as many have questioned whether the producers will give one or both of them a queer story arc.

In an interview with the Telegraph on March 23, Jessie commented on the fan theories about her character's sexuality.

"I do find it interesting that people sense a queer spirit with Eloise, and I think it's just because she's a bit brilliant – and a maverick. But I do find it interesting that because she is a female character who doesn't aspire to marriage, the assumption is that she is queer," she said.

"Bridgerton" season two is available to stream on Netflix.
