It’s not just a Lady Whistledown rumor circulating in the ‘ton: Regé-Jean Page won’t return as Simon Basset for Bridgerton Season 2, as announced on April 2.
A pleasure and a privilege! It’s an honor to be a member of the family, on and off screen, the cast, crew and amazing fans, the love is real and it will continue to grow ❤️💫 https://t.co/YBk4RvKNpx

The news is a blow to the fans; But perhaps the silver lining is that Page’s output shouldn’t be totally ruinous to the show’s plot. Bridgerton seems to be following the inspiration map of his book series, where each season will focus on the relationship of a main couple.
The show has already made it clear that Anthony’s struggles in love will be the central plot of the upcoming season. Removing the relevance of the Duke of Hastings shouldn’t be too difficult, as he already had his turn in the spotlight.
Unfortunately, fans have taken to Twitter to lament Simon’s on-screen presence, so of course we found the best tweets below. Top of her concerns include Anthony and Simon’s friendship and Simon and Daphne’s dynamics as new parents.
Oh, and also Simon’s abs. Everyone Really he’s going to lose Simon’s abs.
So you’re telling me that we can’t see Simon fight as a father? How does Simón take care of his children? How are they as a married couple? then I say goodbye too. #Bridgerton pic.twitter.com/y069jdwDlW
