We can’t imagine a lavish ball without Queen Charlotte in Bridgerton Season 4, but we may have to face that. If not this season, maybe in the next one.
In real history, Queen Charlotte died in 1818. This was just months before the birth of her granddaughter, Victoria. Oh, if only she could have met the future Queen of England.
While period dramas are historical fiction, and that means some events are fictionalized, there are some elements that need to remain true to history. The deaths of queens will be among the historical events that still need to happen.
When is Bridgerton set?
Bridgerton Season 3 takes place in 1815. The end of the season sees that Colin and Penelope have had a baby, which means at least nine months have passed. We could say a year has passed. That means we’re likely in 1816.
Well, there isn’t much time left until Queen Charlotte’s death. If the fourth season sees another time jump, there is a chance that it will involve the death of the queen. There is a chance that we’ll have to wait until Season 5 instead, assuming the series is renewed for a fifth season.
Will Bridgerton skip Queen Charlotte’s death?
Showrunner Jess Brownell has shared that this series is a sort of alternate history for her and Shonda Rhimes. We can see that in the way that Queen Charlotte and Lady Danbury have worked on making society more inclusive. This didn’t happen in the real past.
While something like this can change, it doesn’t mean that the deaths of real historical figures should. After all, the deaths of major players in society have an affect on other elements of the story. That would especially be the case with the way Bridgerton has set things up with Queen Charlotte and Lady Danbury.
King George III died in 1820, and then King George IV was crowned. His wife, Queen Caroline, played a huge part in the advancement of medicine, and it would be great to see how all that plays out in the world of Bridgerton. How would the balls change without a queen consort around and then with a new queen consort?
There’s still time for the series to figure out what it will do as it gets to 1818 in the timeline.
