The Bridgerton buzz is reaching fever pitch as we eagerly anticipate Season 6, supposedly starring everyone's favorite intellectual firebrand, Eloise. But the question on everyone's lips isn't whether she'll find love (we all know Sir Phillip Crane is waiting in the wings, albeit a slightly grumpy one). No, the burning question is: will Eloise, the staunch anti-marriage advocate, actually get married?
Some fans are holding onto the hope that Eloise will completely ditch the societal expectations that shackle women. Will she and Phillip run off to the countryside, embracing a life of intellectual pursuits and botanical studies far from the prying eyes of the Ton? Perhaps, they suggest, a "civil partnership" is in order, a radical choice that would challenge the very foundations of Regency-era society.
"Imagine," one fan mused online, "Eloise fighting for freedom from marriage, and the Queen, in a surprising act of rebellious solidarity, approving civil partnerships! It would be revolutionary!"
Another fan excitedly added, "It could even pave the way for Francesca and Michaela's relationship! Think of the possibilities!"
But hold your horses, lovebirds. While the idea of Eloise shattering convention is undeniably appealing, others argue it's simply not realistic.
