Did the Kardashian Family Inspire Netflix’s ‘Bridgerton’?

Back on Jan 25th, 2021, Kim Kardashian started watching the netflix show, Bridgerton, and along with the rest of us she has become an instant stan of the show. However, what she didn’t know is that her own family was apparently the inspiration for the Featheringtons on the show!

Nichola Coughlan who plays Penelope Featherington tweeted at her, “As the world’s number one @bridgerton Stan does @KimKardashian know that the Kardashians were a massive inspiration for the Featheringtons and we talked about them all the time during our fittings? Because I feel like she should know this”

Kardashian family inspired parts of Bridgerton?

To which Kim replied: “WHAT?!?! I am freaking out!!!!! This tweet was sent to me on my @bridgerton group chat! Can I please come to a fitting?!?! It would make my whole life!!!! I love you Lady W!!!” I think I’m more surprised that Kim Kardashian has a Bridgerton group chat on twitter than anything.

Nicola replied back to her with, “Omg yesss of course we would love to have you! Also did you know that Mr. Pearl made your corset for the Met Gala and the very next one he made was mine for Bridgerton? You’ve been part of the Bridgerton world for longer than you know!”

Interesting little factoid there, apparently the same designer that did Kim’s 2019 Met Gala look also did the corsetwear for Bridgerton! 

You could have knocked Kim over with a–ahem–feather (no pun intended there), she tweeted back at Nicola, “OMG I’m gonna faint!!!!! Does this make me an honorary Duchess in Bridgerton?!?!?!!

I am the corset queen!!!” Nicola played along by tweeting back, “Why of course, Duchess Kardashian of Calabasas! Lady Whistledown is happy to declare you the season’s true incomparable!” with a little diamond emoji out beside it.

This isn’t the first time that she’s made a Kardashian comparison, in December of 2020 she made the comparison of Penelope Featherington to Khloe Kardashian saying that she was the “redheaded step-child of the group and had to do everything for everyone’, she also said that Lady Featherington was definitely a Kris Jenner-type, the ultimate “Momager” for her girls.

Honestly? I can see it. So will this lead to a cameo for Kim in Season 2? I don’t think it would be impossible. Stay tuned!!!
