Netflix's "Bridgerton" is currently in its third season and centered on Colin and Penelope's relationship.
Most of the cast members who were in the first season are still part of "Bridgerton."

Since its Netflix debut in 2020, "Bridgerton" has been enchanting fans with its dreamy ballroom dance sequences, steamy scenes, and romantic declarations of love.

Similar to Julia Quinn's book series of the same name, the Regency-era drama has focused on a different Bridgerton sibling's love story each season.

In season three, Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) is the latest member of the titular family to find love, with his longtime friend Penelope Featheringon (Nicola Coughlan).

Here's how Colin, Penelope, and the rest of the "Bridgerton" cast have changed since the series premiere.

Anthony Bridgerton started off the show burdened by the weight of responsibility as the head of the house.
