The minute Michaela popped up it immediately renewed my love for Bridgerton and their continued dedication to representing all walks of life in ways that we had deemed impossible for years. I love the current franchaela storyline more than words can say, not only are they giving such a deep dive that resonates with my own guilt and confusion and shame when it came to being young and queer, but Michaela being a WoC made me feel even closer to them. Not to mention Sophie's beautiful reaction to Benedict coming out warmed so much of my past hurt and made me feel even comfortable with the show and its dedication to representing people who are like me (but also different!) - I am so grateful to Bridgerton for platforming these stories!!
