While we're still head over heels about Polin—and the third season of Bridgerton in general—you might be wondering if season 2's leads Jonathan Bailey and Simone Ashley are returning for more in season 4. Although they had significantly less screen time this season because of other projects (The Little Mermaid! Wicked! And plenty more where that came from!), fans are holding out for more Kanthony in future seasons of the beloved Netflix series. Seriously, who can blame us?!

Are Simone Ashley and Jonathan Bailey returning for Bridgerton season 4?

Dearest gentle reader, we're thrilled to report that we'll likely see more of the pair—at least, according to showrunner Jess Brownell. When asked if Kanthony's trip to India means they're being written off the show, Jess explained to Teen Vogue, "I think, understandably, when any of our lead actors have given over their lives for their season, in future seasons, we want to be supportive of the fact that they do have other projects coming in, and to ask actors to come back just to be in the background is not really fair to them." She continued, "We love Jonny and Simone and we'll have them back as much as we are able to."

Per People, Simone dished that she'd be down to "hopefully" come back for another season.
