Jonathan Bailey Seemingly Reveals Relationship Status
Jonathan Baileyappears to be on the dating market.
The Jurassic World: Rebirth star seemingly revealed his single status when Chicken Shop Date host Amelia Dimoldenberg asked if he was free to pursue romantically.
“I’m available,” Jonathan said on the July 4 episode of the web series. “It’s just, I think there’s a genetic predisposition.”
And while he’s captured hearts onscreen, the 37-year-old—who publicly came out as gay in 2018—went on to note that he doesn’t think his work on Bridgerton has helped him with romance at all.
“It’s a fantasy, isn’t it?” he explained about the Netflix series. “Romance is grounded and real.”
Though Jonathan didn’t unveil any specific details on his dating life, he also alluded to being single last year when sharing his mindset on parenting with a potential partner.
“I want to make sure I’m going to be present,” he told British Vogue in December. “I’m reading books on adoption. I might co-parent with a woman, but I’m thinking it will be with a man.”
The Wicked actor’s peek into his dating life ended there, though, as he later shut down discussion about his relationship status, telling the outlet that he was “not discussing that.”
Jonathan was, however, open about his experience as part of the LGBTQ+ community, including the difficulty he had when trying to come out to a group of friends in grade school.
“It was a conversation I really, really wanted to have, to see if everyone else was on the same page,” he continued. “But everyone went quiet.”
He also recounted a slight from a former teacher in those years, adding, “I was having trouble with my work and he said, ‘Well, if you weren’t so busy being a fairy you’d understand.’”
Despite the tough moments, Jonathan has made sure to lean into his identity confidently.
"I reached a point where I thought, ‘F--k this,’” he told GQ in 2022, “I’d much prefer to hold my boyfriend’s hand in public or be able to put my own face picture on Tinder and not be so concerned about that than getting a part."
Read on to learn more about the love lives of other Bridgerton stars.
While Nicola's Penelope Featherington found love with Luke Newton's Colin Bridgerton on season three, Nicola herself has sparked romance rumors with Renegade Nell alum Jake Dunn.
Lord Debling and Prudence Dankworth (née Featherington) may not factor into each other's love lives on the show, but the actors have made a real-life match.
And it appears that Carter's mum Imelda Staunton approves.
Daphne Bridgerton swapped vows with Regé-Jean Page's Simon Basset, and now the Bridgerton alum plans to take her own stroll down the aisle.
Dynevor flashed her engagement ring from producer Cameron Fuller at the 2024 Met Gala.
The erstwhile Duke of Hastings, Page having left the show after season one, keeps his personal cards close to his vest off-camera, but has looked awfully happy in copywriter Emily Brown's company since 2021.
Like Anthony, 9th Viscount Bridgerton, the English actor prefers to stay mum on romantic affairs.
But he told The Standard in December 2023 that he was in a not-secret-but-private relationship with a "lovely man."
"Having a private life is, for me, completely critical," the Fellow Travelers star said. "I don't know if I would be able to be as confident to speak out on other things if I felt that my whole life was up for grabs."
The Sex Education star, who fit the Vicountess bill for Anthony upon arrival from India, confirmed she was in a relationship with Tino Klein with a March 2023 Instagram post. But in February 2025, the actress shared she had entered her "single era" in an interview on BBC’s Woman Hour podcast, revealing the split occured one month prior.
Benedict Bridgerton seemingly just wants to be free to do his thing, as an artist and in the bedroom. Though maybe he's developing some feelings...
And Thompson, who's not one to share what he's up in real life, was totally onboard with his character's journey, wherever it took him.
"It's lovely to explore," he told Deadlineahead of the season three finale, "but also putting down some roots and choosing something or someone also has huge value and excitement."
Newton dated actress Jade Louise Davies—her sister Amber Davies won Love Island U.K. in 2017 with then-boyfriend Kem Cetinay—for several years.
But he was snapped following Bridgerton's June 2024 midseason premiere in London hand-in-hand with dancer Antonia Roumelioti.
Of course, most fans are just disappointed that Colin Bridgerton and Penelope aren't together in real life.
"We think it’s really sweet," Coughlan told Extra of the off-camera shipping that goes on for them. "I think because we truly love each other."
The actress who plays Kate's sparkling sister Edwina Sharma may be single at the moment, but she sent hearts soaring with the release of her 2024 rom-com How to Date Billy Walsh, costarring her longtime friend Sebastian Croft.
It turns out the actress destined to play Eloise Bridgerton ended up falling for the non-actor she auditioned with, casting editor Cole Edwards.
"I got a job and a fella on the same day," Jessie told The Guardian in April 2024. "It was a great day for me, wasn't it?"
