Though Bridgerton never states exactly how long the Season 3 time leap is, one can estimate that it runs roughly a year. Penelope's baby is the main clue of this. Penelope had to have been pregnant for nine months and her kid appeared to be one to two months old. That comes out to be roughly one year since the Dankworth-Finch ball. Given their apparent three to four month age, Prudence and Philippa's babies likewise follow this chronology. Their attire also suggests that spring will once more rule rather than winter.
Although the Time Jump clarifies some important information, at this point the name of the Bridgerton sibling leading Bridgerton season 4 is unknown. Should the Bridgerton Season 3 time jump indeed span a year, then the time jump occurs during Bridgerton season 4. Every Bridgerton episode starts the following social season, and if the third season went ahead one year, then courting season once again would commence. Although the time jump reveals some important information, at this point there is no announcement regarding which Bridgerton sibling would head Bridgerton season 4. Still together, Colin and Penelope have established a family and ought to be around for the next Bridgerton season.
Should Bridgerton follow its typical calendar, season 4 should take place in 1816. Three seasons have passed since Daphne and Simon fell in love; Bridgerton season one took place in 1813. This also fits the chronology Julia Quinn developed for the Bridgerton books. Bridgerton's chronology will ultimately run until 1820, when the last sibling gets married. The series still has Benedict, Eloise, Francesca, Hyacinth, and Gregory's love tales left to explore at this point.
1816 still firmly belongs in London's Regency Era. Though Bridgerton alters the history somewhat, the Regency Era is the period of time King George III ruled; his son served as prince regent. Bridgerton does succeed, nevertheless, in capturing the Regency Era's culture—one that valued sociability and luxury. Interesting events that might fit Bridgerton season 4, include Lord Byron's contentious divorce from his wife, Princess Charlotte's marriage, or the summer most famously rainy and frigid, occurred in 1816.
Towards the end of Bridgerton season 3, the show abruptly leaps forward in time to see Colin and Penelope almost a year into their future together. Time Jumps abound in Bridgerton since every episode leaps forward to the next courting season. But this last time jump in the ending of Bridgerton season 3 is special since it fast forwards right into Colin and Penelope's future. Pen and Colin got it straight immediately, where other Bridgerton couples have had to wait for their happily ever after.
Among the more touching sequences in the third Bridgerton time leap is this one. Together with Portia and Colin, Penelope, Prudence, and Philippa meet with their children in the Featherington house. Penelope had a son, thus he is the Featherington heir; Prudence and Philippa both had daughters. More importantly nonetheless, the family has obviously healed their damaged bond. Penelope also currently writes Lady Whistledown as herself, not under her alias. The season 3 Time Jump thus offers a preview of the future of the Bridgerton program chronology.
Though it ignores the fate of the other Bridgerton family members, the time jump in season 3 allows viewers to see Colin and Penelope's bliss. After a year gone by, Kate and Anthony's baby will have been born by now and they ought to be returning from India. They obviously, however, are not part of the new baby scenario at Featherington mansion. Though hopes are great that Anthony and Kate would return in Bridgerton season 4, it could be that the road from India delays them.
Eloise should also be returned from Scotland given the year-long time leap. This begs issues regarding whether viewers will see any hints of Eloise's time spent overseas or whether she would just return transformed. Moreover, Eloise could have broken her vow to Benedict and not come back for Violet's masquerade ball. Her missing from the time jump clarifies nothing. Though it raises more concerns than answers overall, the time jump in Bridgerton season 3 starts creating buzz for the upcoming season.
