Simone Ashley says she and 'Bridgerton' costar Jonathan Bailey left small gifts for each other in their trailers while filming season 2

• Simone Ashley and Jonathan Bailey play the lead characters on season two of "Bridgerton."
• Ashley told Glamour UK that they routinely sent gifts to each other's trailers on set.

"Bridgerton" costars Simone Ashley and Jonathan Bailey routinely sent small gifts to each other while they were filming season two, the actress told Glamour UK on Thursday.

When Ashley, 26, arrived on set as a newcomer to the Shondaland series' large ensemble cast, she discovered flowers in her trailer, addressed to her from Bailey.

Wishing to reciprocate the gesture, she made a point to leave the 33-year-old's "favorite snacks" in his trailer.

"We had a very unspoken rhythm going on in that sense, leaving gifts in each other's trailers," she told the publication.

Season two of the Regency romance series, which debuted in 2020 as part of Shonda Rhimes' $150 million Netflix deal, premieres on March 25.

The new episodes, loosely based on author Julia Quinn's 2000 novel "The Viscount Who Loved Me," shift the focus from season one protagonists Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor) and Simon Basset (Regé-Jean Page) to Kate Sharma (Ashley) and Anthony Bridgerton (Bailey).

Page, who signed a one-year contract, will not return for season two, but Dynevor will.

After passing the baton to Ashley as the next-in-line female lead, Dynevor reportedly went out of her way to offer her support on the "Bridgerton" set. Ashley told People that Dynevor took her to a pilates class and had "girl time" with her during a week when the "Sex Education" actress was "feeling quite stressed."

"She's so lovely," Ashley said of Dynevor.

Thanks to the show's explosive success ("Bridgerton" reigns as one of Netflix's most-watched shows, second only to "Squid Game"), the streamer has already renewed it through season four.

Like Quinn's eight Bridgerton novels, each season will follow a new sibling's romantic pursuits. Should the show's writers continue on the path they've laid out thus far, season three will be based on Benedict Bridgerton's book, "An Offer From a Gentleman," and season four will be a loose adaptation of "Romancing Mister Bridgerton," Colin Bridgerton's book.

Netflix has also announced plans for a prequel spinoff about Queen Charlotte, though a release date has yet to be announced.
