Anthony (pronounced without the “h”) heads into Season 2 jaded by love, but ready to find the perfect woman – on paper – to become his Viscountess.īailey has been acting for most of his life, including in “A Christmas Carol” as a child (on the London stage). Though he tried to win Siena back at the end of Season 1, she sent him away, leaving the Viscount heartbroken. Anthony is known as a “capital ‘R’ rake,” (a phrase from Julia Quinn’s “The Viscount Who Loved Me”) and kept a mistress – opera singer Siena – in Season 1, only to break things off with her when his family reminded him of his duty as heir (to get married and produce another heir). In Season 1, he failed miserably at assisting younger sister Daphne as she made her debut on the marriage mart. As the titled member of the family, Anthony has been in charge of business affairs for the Bridgertons his entire adult life (and a bit before). Anthony inherited his title quite young in life following the tragic early death of his father, Edmund Bridgerton. Viscount Anthony Bridgerton is the eldest of the Bridgerton siblings.
