This is due toboth series taking place in a racially utopian alternate reality of Regency England.
TheBridgertontelevision series is based on the romancenovels of the same name written by Julia Quinn.
In the novels, the races of the characters are not explicitly stated.
Korean-Australian actressYerin Ha was tapped to play Benedicts love interest.
In fact, Ha and Thompson asSophie and Benedict marks the shows fourth main interracial couple.
Bridgertonalso features several minor interracial romances.
This was done in the hopes that audiences would accept this vague statement as a definitive answer.
This was called theGreat Experiment.
Not only does the show center interracial relationships, it also preserves these relationships as natural and long-lasting.
Rather, the romances inBridgertonareportrayed as being very happy, passionate, and loving relationships.
It will be exciting to seeBridgertoncontinue that trend in season four with Sophie and Benedicts love story.
