Away from the rigid prying eyes of Lady Whistledown in London, secrets breathe easier, and proximity forces intimacy.

This setup provides the backdrop for the episode’s central conflict. Anthony is determined to prove he is a serious suitor for Edwina, while Kate is determined to protect her sister from a man she believes is cold and unfeeling. Bridgerton - Season 2- Episode 3
