Kate and Anthony don’t have to be the main characters in Bridgerton for fans to enjoy their love story. Spinoffs are there for that purpose.
The popular Netflix show introduced Anthony (played by Jonathan Bailey) and Kate (played by Simone Ashley) in its second season, which came out in 2022. After getting involved in his sister Daphne’s romantic affairs, Anthony found himself in a similar situation when everyone around him encouraged him to pursue his feelings for Kate in season 2.
Kate and Anthony faced challenges on their journey to happiness. Anthony was close to marrying Kate's sister, Edwina, before realizing his true feelings. It wasn't until the eighth episode of season 2 that Kate and Anthony finally decided to be together.
After some fans expressed disappointment in the lack of Kate and Anthony content, executive producers Shonda Rhimes and Betsy Beers discussed the idea of a spinoff to further explore their story.
Rhimes explained that the beauty of the show lies in telling a complete love story with a happy ending every season. There is no need to create artificial reasons for a couple not being together, allowing them to have genuine happy moments. As a result, there are no plans for spinoffs, as it would require breaking up a couple, which feels forced.
Beers questioned why viewers enjoy watching a couple simply being happy, prompting Rhimes to suggest the idea of watching them just sitting together.
Fans of Bridgerton are eager to see more of Kate and Anthony after they were not featured much in season 3. Social media has been buzzing with ideas for a spinoff show starring the beloved couple. Here are some of the top spinoff ideas for Kate and Anthony that fans are loving.

Despite momentarily picturing Kate as his bride while pretending to marry her sister, there is still hope for exploring the untold parts of their story.
From Honeymoon to Honeymoon
Not featuring Kate and Anthony's wedding on the show could create the chance for a special episode dedicated solely to their marriage. Netflix should take advantage of this opportunity, showcasing everything from the wedding planning to the heartfelt vows exchanged between the couple.
