  • "Bridgerton" star Adjoa Andoh said that she still hopes Lady Danbury finds love on the show.

  • Andoh said she'd be interested in seeing how a romance could challenge her character.

  • She also reacted to the season three finale's tease about which Bridgerton's love story will be told next.

Warning: There are major spoilers ahead for season three, part two of "Bridgerton."

Lady Agatha Danbury has an affinity for fresh gossip and a knack for molding society, but "Bridgerton" star Adjoa Andoh thinks it's about time for her character to have a love story of her own.

"Doesn't everybody want love in their life?" Andoh said in a recent interview with Business Insider. "When I talk to fans, a lot of fans are like, 'When is Lady Danbury going to get her moment in that sun?'"

Season three of "Bridgerton," which is focused on Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) and Penelope Featherington's (Nicola Coughlan) friends-to-lovers relationship, showcases a more vulnerable side of Andoh's powerful, witty, and commanding character.

The unexpected arrival of her brother, Lord Marcus Anderson (Daniel Francis), forces her to confront unresolved childhood grievances and grapple with his romantic interest in Lady Violet Bridgerton (Ruth Gemmell), one of her closest friends.

By the end of season three, Lady Danbury has mended her strained relationship with her sibling and voices her support for Lady Violet's exploration of her feelings for Marcus.

"But if he sours things between the two of you, I will pick you over him," Lady Danbury adds, emphasizing how much she values their friendship.

Andoh still wants a love story for Lady Danbury — and to interact with one particular actor more

Another season is already in the works, and Andoh said that filming will begin sometime in the fall. She also has some ideas in mind for her character's storyline.

The actor has been vocal in the past about wanting her character to experience some romance. With Lady Danbury's conflicts resolved, now would be a fitting time to explore the character navigating a new relationship after being single for so long.

"Here's someone who feels like they've got their life set in a certain way," Andoh said. "What happens if you put another personality into that? What happens if she suddenly is thinking about how she might accommodate another personality into that?"

"It's something that dynamic, self-contained women are challenged with all the time," she continued. "So I think it would be interesting to see."

"Anyway, that's above my pay grade," Andoh joked.

Andoh also hopes that Lady Danbury and Penelope will have more screen time in the future, especially after sharing a rare and heartfelt scene during the finale. In Julia Quinn's "Bridgerton" book series, the two characters have a more prominent friendship, and Penelope even names her first child after Lady Danbury.

"I love Nic and I would love to have more interactions between the two of them because I do think they're both swimming in exactly the same pond, which is knowledge and how do you use knowledge to encourage yourself, protect yourself, make trades, make shifts in the general discourse, all of those things," Andoh said. "And she's a fabulous actor and a delight, so any moments that Danbury gets to hang out with Penelope will always be welcome."

The season three finale teases that this show will bring Benedict Bridgerton's (Luke Thompson) love story to the forefront next, and Andoh couldn't be more thrilled.

"Lukey is a fabulous actor. In fact, I went up to see him Stratford-upon-Avon doing 'Love's Labour's Lost,' where he was marvelous," Andoh said. "And I think there's a mercurial quality to his Benedict, which is very Luke, and I love that. It's interesting, it's fascinating. It has its own song if you like, its own music. "

Given Lady Danbury's tendency to meddle in the lives of the town's young people, it's not a stretch to wonder if she'll be involved in the second-eldest Bridgerton's journey to find his wife.

"I'm really interested to see how that plays out in a romantic way because I think it will have its own particularity, which will be a very Benedict sort of style," Andoh said. "And anything that's mercurial is fascinating to Lady Danbury,"

"We know they have a little playful quality to their relationship," she continued. "I think there's a slight raised eyebrow with Benedict a lot of the time, and I think there is with Lady Danbury, and I think they could giggle across a room quite happily. So yeah, it's going to be good."

All episodes of season three of "Bridgerton" are now streaming on Netflix.
