‘Bridgerton’ season 3: How Claudia Jessie’s broken wrist became a stealthy plot twist

Washington [US], May 26 (ANI): In the glitzy world of Bridgerton, where intrigue and romance weave through every scene, even mishaps become a part of the carefully crafted narrative.

Claudia Jessie, the actor who brings Eloise Bridgerton to life on the screen, recently divulged the ingenious tactics employed by the show’s production crew to conceal her real-life injury while filming the highly anticipated third season.

During a revelation obtained by E! News, Claudia Jessie shared the behind-the-scenes saga of how her broken wrist became a covert plot twist in the regal drama.

“They had to make a muff,” she quipped, referring to the innovative solution devised by the costume department to camouflage her cast.

In a stroke of creative brilliance, the team crafted multiple variations of the circular accessory, typically associated with winter warmth, and christened them “summer muffs” to align with the storyline’s seasonal setting.

Not stopping there, background actors also embraced the trend, seamlessly integrating the faux regency-era style into the show’s lavish aesthetic.

The origins of Claudia’s injury add another layer of intrigue to the tale.

A spontaneous on-set celebration took an unexpected turn when the actor attempted a high kick, only to be thwarted by the confines of her elaborate costume.

“I’m not a dancer,” she confessed, reflecting on the comical mishap that led to her fall, according to People magazine.

Despite the initial laughter that ensued, Claudia’s injury required prompt attention, prompting a lighthearted remark about the necessity of medics on set “for idiots like me.”

The first part of Season 3 of ‘Bridgerton’ comprising four episodes was released on May 14, with the remaining episodes slated to air on June 13 on Netflix.
