Bridgerton, one of Netflix's most popular shows, returns for its third season, though it hasn't dropped all eight episodes at once. The first four episodes premiered on the platform on May 17, with the next four scheduled to release on June 24. The new season puts the spotlight on the developing romance between Nicola Coughlan's Penelope Featherington and Luke Newton's Colin Bridgerton, a relationship that has been teased in previous seasons. Bridgerton Season 3 Part 1 Review: Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton's Chemistry Rescues Their Formulaic 'Will-They, Won't-They' Romance.

Bridgerton, created by Chris Van Dusen, is known for blending frothy romance with Elizabethan aesthetics and a touch of sensuality. The sex scenes and nudity were toned down in the second season, and this trend continues in the third season. However, Bridgerton Season 3 Part 1 hasn't entirely eschewed erotic imagery and nudity.

In this feature, we look at the hottest scenes in the first four episodes of Bridgerton Season 3. Be careful, not only are there some SPOILERS ahead, but also some NSFW content, so be mindful of where you are reading this.

Later, they also share another makeout session on his working desk. Bridgerton Season 3: Banita Sandhu Joins Netflix’s Popular Series As ‘Miss Malhotra’; Here’s All You Need To Know About Her Character.

Colin Bridgerton surely loves threesomes, doesn't he? However, he is not too enthused the second time we see him with two ladies, his thoughts already lost to his childhood friend who awakens new feelings in him.

Colin and Penelope's Buggy Makeout (Episode 4)

A Still From Bridgerton Season 3

It doesn't take long after the previous scene for Colin to finally confess his feelings to Penelope in her buggy while she is returning in tears after her expected marriage proposal from Lord Debling falls through. Thankfully, for the pair's shippers, she returns his feelings, and what follows is a pretty steamy makeout scene with some finger-pleasuring. The conclusion, however, would melt hearts when Colin drops a surprise on her - a marriage proposal. This also gives Bridgerton Season 3 an interesting mid-season cliffhanger.
