In the highly anticipated third season of Bridgerton, a new Bridgerton woman is stepping into the spotlight. Hannah Dodd joins the cast as Francesca, the shy, piano-obsessed middle Bridgerton daughter who makes her debut into society. While there may not be a diamond this season, this Bridgerton is sure to sparkle.

For those unfamiliar with the Bridgerton books by Julia Quinn, Francesca is the sixth Bridgerton sibling. She is known for her love of music, her quiet nature, and her close relationship with her younger sister, Hyacinth.

In the first half of Bridgerton season three, we are introduced to Francesca's romantic interest, John Stirling, aka Lord Kilmartin. Lord Kilmartin is a handsome and wealthy viscount who is immediately drawn to Francesca's intelligence and musical talent. However, their relationship is not without its challenges. Lord Kilmartin is a bit of a rake, and Francesca is not sure if she can trust him.

As the season progresses, Francesca must navigate the complexities of love, society, and her own heart. Dodd brings a quiet strength and vulnerability to the role, and she is sure to win over the hearts of Bridgerton fans.
