‘Bridgerton’: Key differences in how Eloise discovers Penelope is Lady Whistledown
In episode 5, titled ‘Tick, Tock’, we see Colin announce to his family that he is engaged to Penelope. This makes everyone happy except Eloise, because she already knows that Penelope is responsible for writing the gossip under the name Lady Whistledown.
Eloise threatens her former best friend by telling her brother about her secret, which terrifies our protagonist, because from the second season, Eloise discovers who Lady Whistledown is when she goes to the printer responsible for creating the flyers . However, in the literary work this happens in a completely different way.
It is important to remember that in the fourth book, Seducing Mr. Bridgerton,” high society members learn of Lady Whistledown’s identity when Colin reveals her at a ball thrown by his sister Daphne. When Penelope is forgiven, they both end up getting married. However, Eloise misses this announcement.
It turns out that the Bridgerton family member doesn’t discover Lady Whistledown’s identity because she escapes the event to meet Sir Philip Crane, the man she falls in love with through letters, and ends up learning the truth thanks to one of her sisters after .
In the text “Brigerton: Happily Ever After”, which collects a series of epilogues in each volume of the epic, it is explained that Eloise discovers Penelope’s double identity on the day of her wedding to Phillip Crane because Hyacinth casually mentions it to her. since that time had passed since that event.
Something to note is that Eloise isn’t really bothered by this fact, since Penelope is her friend, and even admits that if she had known before, she would have struggled to keep the secret. However, what is shown in the series is quite the opposite, as Eloise seems to be the villain of the story.
