Regé-Jean Page's decision to leave Bridgerton after Season 1 stunned many fans, especially with his breakout success as Simon Basset, the Duke of Hastings. The audience praised his on-screen chemistry with Phoebe Dynevor, playing Daphne Bridgerton, so his exit was a hot topic. He pointed out that his contract had always been a one-season deal, and Simon's story would be over after Season 1. Viewers were left with the hope that he'll be back, but the other storyline, involving other characters, went on until they finished their own story in the following seasons.
