Nicola Coughlan Reveals: Someone Close Was Steaming About Her ‘Steamy’ Bridgerton Scenes

Buy Me A Coffee

Nicola Coughlan, queen of charm and chaos, took the Bridgerton spotlight this season, starring in scenes hot enough to fog up your Regency-era spectacles. But while fans swooned over her romantic escapades, one person in her life was not having itโ€”like, at all.

The delightful actress spilled the tea (and probably a little wine) on The Graham Norton Show, admitting that her newfound role as a romantic lead came with some seriously awkward territory. โ€œIt was weird having to play the romantic lead,โ€ she confessed, with the tone of someone who just realized theyโ€™d accidentally signed up for pole-dancing lessons instead of yoga.

โ€œAnd itโ€™s a sexy show,โ€ she added, casually understating the fact that Bridgerton has single-handedly raised the temperature of living rooms worldwide. โ€œA lot of sexy things happen in it, and then I realized I was going to have to do the sexy things.โ€ Cue Nicola Googling, โ€œHow to professionally blush on camera.โ€

But the real plot twist? Nicolaโ€™s mom was not feeling the Bridgerton bedroom vibes. Like, weโ€™re talking full-on disapproval, the kind that makes you reconsider your life choicesโ€”or at least your Netflix password sharing policy.

โ€œMy mother was so mad at me about those scenesโ€”as if they were my fault!โ€ Nicola said, with the exasperation of someone whoโ€™s clearly had this argument before. To avoid what we can only assume would be the worldโ€™s most uncomfortable family viewing party, she skipped watching the show with her mom altogether. Smart move, honestly. Imagine sitting there, trying to explain to your mom that yes, youโ€™re a grown woman, and yes, this is actingโ€”but no, you canโ€™t just close your eyes and pretend it didnโ€™t happen.

So, the next time youโ€™re watching Bridgerton and blushing over Nicolaโ€™s romantic escapades, just remember: Somewhere out there, her mom is probably side-eyeing the TV and muttering, โ€œThis is not what I raised her for.โ€ Classic mom energy.
