Best Bridgerton Season 1 moment: Daphne confronts Simon’s lie

It was obvious from the beginning that Daphne and Simon had a connection. After denying it for so long, it’s no surprise they wound up getting married towards the end of the season.

However, before they confessed their love for each other, Simon warned Daphne that he could not give her children. Even though Daphne desired to be a mother, she married for love anyway.

While their marriage began very passionately, Daphne took note of an incident that left her asking her maid about how women become pregnant. Upon Simon’s and Daphne’s next intimate night, it is confirmed that he can have children but doesn’t want them.

It turns out Simon didn’t want to have children because of a vow he made to his cruel and dying father. A vow that he never mentioned to Daphne before.

Daphne, feeling betrayed by her husband, and Simon believes he cannot trust her anymore, begin this awkward phase of pretending that their marriage is wonderful in front of others when it is, in fact, falling apart.

Best Bridgerton Season 1 moment: King George III’s unfortunate illness

While the show’s main focus has been the Bridgerton’s and Featherington’s, one could argue Queen Charlotte played an equally important role. She was a firm, no-nonsense but intelligent woman whom everyone respected.

While her husband, King George III, was alive, he was rarely seen as she most often greeted her people solo. It turns out the reasoning for his absence is something unexpected.

As Queen Charlotte is called to have dinner with her husband, their conversation turns completely south when he asks about their daughter Amelia. Queen Charlotte informs him that she has been dead for several years.

In a fit of rage, he accuses his Queen of killing his daughter as his staff tries to calm him down. The moment is truly heartbreaking for both Queen Charlotte and the audience watching.

His exact medical condition is not specifically explained, but it seems he is suffering from memory loss and unpredictable mood swings.
