The Bridgerton fan gave away a spoiler about the series, which literally ruined the mystery for anyone yet to watch the entire first season of the Regency-era drama. Kim has been on a roller-coaster ride in terms of her Bridgerton relationship. Days after starting her binge-watch and was found swooning over Rege-Jean Page’s Instagram, it was revealed that Page will not return to the renewed second season of the show.
Nicola Coughlan, who takes the role of Penelope Featherington in the drama, said that Kim and the Kardashians influenced her and other actresses in the series. In a tweet, Nicola indicated that Kim, who is the number one Bridgerton stan in the world, had massive inspiration for her and her sisters, and they always talking about the Kardashians during their fittings. She added that she felt that Kim should know how inspirational she had been.

Interestingly, Kim sounded surprised and responded to the tweet with several exclamation marks saying, “WHAT?! I am Freaking Out!!!!!! Thus tweet was sent to me on my Brigertin group chat! Can I please come to a fitting?! It would make my whole life!!!!! I love you Lady W!!” Nicola responded that they would love to have the soon-to-be Kanye West ex-wife at fitting.
Hidden in Kim’s message was the revelation of the secret identity of Lady Whistledown, who is a true persona character tight-lipped as Gossip Girl. Besides Twitter users, the socialite also spoiled the flick for her Instagram users.
The show has been watched by more than 80 million households so far, but there were some disappointed fans on Kims’ feed yet to watch it. One user said, “Wait!!! She is lady W!!! Oh my gosh, still on episode 4. oh well..”
