Molly, this 😂😂😂
Anthony’s thoughts: “Oh my god, I can’t believe I agreed to come out tonight. I could have been at home with my wife! I could have had a cup of herbal tea while she finished writing a letter to her mother. We could have taken Newton for a walk together! But no! I’m being dragged to my club away from MY WIFE! Maybe if I mention Kate enough they’ll start booing me and I’ll get to leave early before all the gamblers enter. I’ll just make sure my label is straight IF LOST PLEASE RETURN TO KATE VISCOUNTESS BRIDGERTON. DO NOT FEED DAIRY IT HURTS HIS TUMMY.
Perfect. They’ll send me home any minute now.”

Say no more. Anthony with Kate and Francesca on either side of him 🥹 also there’s so many of them walking in now 😂
Anthony.
You handsome little sweetheart.
This man really said “I was a shit to my wife last year and I am lucky she fell in love with me so I am going to make up for it now by being the biggest simp to ever take up the role.”
Also I love him supporting Francesca. Anthony is becoming a man his siblings feel like they can actually talk to about their problems, not be judged by him and I love that for them. I love that for him. I love that for me.

Omg I can totally see Kate getting a fidget ring to wear for Anthony to play with 🥹
https://x.com/brokebackboys/status/1783011823845097597?s=46
Mile High Kate definitely would. And can you imagine when he looks down and realizes the ring on her thumb is spinning where he normally rubs circles against her skin while they’re standing in line at a coffee shop.
“Ant, what do you want, Babe?”
Anthony startled at the sound of his name, Kate and the Barista both looking expectantly at him. “I um…” he spun the ring on her thumb a few more times. “Just my regular, it’s not a new things day.”
Kate finished ordering and kissed him quickly before she tugged him to the side to wait still not saying anything about the ring on her hand. Anthony swallowed.
“You have a ring.”
Kate chuckled, leaning against the wall, “Not yet, I’m waiting for him to propose.” She gave him a wink and Anthony smiled despite himself.
“I meant on your thumb.”
Kate shrugged, “I read that they were really good for anxiety, and I know that you’re not a jewellery kind of guy so I got one for me to wear.”
Months ago, when they’d first started all of this it might have made him embarrassed, or angry, or anything in between. Mortified that she’d noticed but her eyes were so gentle when they looked at him. Soft and understanding and he knew this was just another way Kate was telling him she loved him.
“Do you not like?”
Anthony swallowed the lump in his throat, is thumb absentmindedly spinning the circle on her finger. “I um… I like it. I love you obviously as well.”
She smiled at him, leaning forward to press their lips together gently, “Yeah, I love you obviously too.”

Imagine Author Anthony going back to their university to give a talk about creative writing as a career. He's having to fend off quite a few students expressing more than just a passing interest in his career... (I keep picturing that scene from Indiana Jones RotLA where the student has written 'LOVE YOU' on her eyelids for him to read every time she blinks).
Anthony being a guest professor at Oxford and he and Kate take it as an opportunity to visit all the places they loved as students. Like the pub where they fell in love and the walk they used to make back to his flat with a cigarette between his fingers that she’d always stamp out immediately.
“Smoking’s not sexy, Anthony. You can’t die on me, who would I eviscerate then?”
They love sitting on the grass together where he first caught that frisbee.
Kate also loves sitting at the back of the theatre while Anthony talks passionately about writing, his arms waving around like a madman.
She’d love it a little more if there weren’t always a gaggle of girls following Anthony around with copies of the book he wrote for her. Batting their eyelashes at him when they ask him to sign it.
“I just love you.”
“You’re much cuter in real life than you are in your author’s photo.”
Kate wants to snatch Anthony away from them and never return.
“Thanks so much.” Anthony always smiles politely, signing his name then picking Kate’s hand up almost immediately.
It’s stupid to feel jealous, when she knows he’s practically only ever had eyes for her. But something in her feels like that 19 year old girl who’d thought Anthony had been asking her out only to show up at his flat with a party in full swing.
“Done with your adoring fans?”
Anthony raised his eyebrows, “That depends. Are you an adoring fan today?”
“Oh always.”

They’d shared a two minute conversation during which she’d managed to call him stupid a number of different times in an exciting variety of ways. And still, he’d found himself sat behind the typewriter (...) as he wrote about anything. But kindly it wasn’t about anything. Mostly it was about her, in some way or another. Or rather, the feeling of her.
THIS. This is so in line with the canon. I immediately thought of the scene during the conservatory ball. Kate gives her monologue, tearing Anthony to pieces and he is completely smitten with her from the get-go.
I bet he still has the initial pages written way back then. Maybe they even made it to Snow Filled Paper? But the originals are surely hidden in his desk: yellowed, crumpled and tattered, since Anthony has been rereading them all over again.
A version of some of them are in Snow Filled Paper but most of them are tucked away in Anthony’s desk drawer, folded and unfolded and tearing at the edges.
Anthony takes them out and reads them from time to time and Kate has no idea they even exist until they’re nearly two months into their relationship and she’s looking for something else in his desk. She finds them in an old tin from the Jane Austen Museum and it makes her chuckle as she opens it. It’s such an Anthony thing to own, and she can’t resist knowing what’s inside.
There’s a lot of things in there from there uni days actually, there’s a coaster with the mark of a beer bottle from the pub they used to go to with their friends and there’s a daisy chain that’s been pressed into a notebook that has Anthony’s thoughts in. She chuckled as she read
Grow moustache? Might look cultured and distinguished? Set me apart from D.
Her brow furrowed as she looked at the D printed there, trying to remember who that might have been. She moved on, unfolding one of the sheets of paper at the back and her heart stuttered in her chest.
It was about her, she was sure it was. She remembered the day he’d written about, when they’d met in the library to work on their assignment and her breath caught at the way he described it.
“Are you snooping?”
She dropped the paper in surprise looking up to see Anthony leaking against the doorway, sipping a cup of tea.
“Maybe a little?”
She held up the pages, “Did you really feel this way about me?”
Anthony groaned, leaning against the edge of the desk, “please don’t read that. I was still finding my style.”
“I like it.” She said gently, pressing her lips to his. “It’s very sweet.”
“I… Please don’t read too far. I think in that one I used the phrase Aphrodite would be a poor muse compared with her.”
Kate bit back a laugh, “I’m obsessed with this.”
“Is there anything I can do to convince you not to read it?” Anthony wiggled his eyebrows, “I’d be willing to show you just how close you are to Aphrodite.”
Kate hummed, tapping her finisher on her chin. “Tell me who D is? I don’t remember you being friends with a D in uni. But you fucking hate him.”
Anthony raised his eyebrows, “You don’t know a D from first year?”
It dawned on her and her mouth fell open with a gasp, “Oh you wanted to grow a moustache to set you apart from Dan?!”
He flushed, “He had a motorbike and I was jealous! He was dating my dream girl.”
“That’s very sweet.”
Anthony hummed, leaning into her, “Would the moustache have worked?”
Kate grimaced, “It would have set this timeline back at least 5 years. Now I might be into it.”
“Interesting.”

How does author Anthony’s writing process and their editing relationship change once he and Kate get together?
I think it becomes something really intimate for them.
Anthony loves writing with Kate in the room with him, he loves having her tucked against his side while he taps away one handed on his typewriter, or reading on the sofa. He loves asking her questions out loud
“Does this sound precocious?”
“Is this stupid?”
Kate always prefers to work from home when she’s editing Anthony’s work. She loves sitting down with a cup of tea and Anthony’s draft on her knee while she sits under a blanket. Even if it means Anthony’s pestering her every 15 seconds.
“What do you think?”
“Do you hate it?”
“Do you love it?!”
“Is it so good you’re speechless?!”
“Oh god, is it so bad you’re speechless?!”
“Anthony, Babe, I’ve read seven words.”
“And how would you describe them?!”
“Oh, effervescent darling.”

Despite their back and forth, it's clear that Anthony appreciates/values Kate's input into his writing. What are some other ways in which Kate has augmented his life (not counting Neddy)?
So much of Anthony’s current life he owes to Kate.
It’s crazy how much she’s imbedded in his life. She was there when he bought his car, and she was the one who picked out the sofa in his study.
“Feel how nice the velvet is Anthony.” Kate sighed, “It’s cozy and inviting, this is exactly what you need.”
She tugged him down onto the sofa beside her, her perfume overwhelming as he shifted uncomfortably beside the press of her body.
“Doesn’t it feel nice?”
“Yeah.” Anthony swallowed, trying hard not to think about all the things he’d like to do that would make Kate feel exactly how soft this velvet was. “It feels really nice.”
He has dog treats in the cupboard under the sink and he doesn’t have a dog. Doesn’t own one. But sometimes Kate brings Newton round when she stops by on Sundays and he wants to dog to like him.
He stopped smoking for Kate in university because she said she’d never date a smoker.
Kate is so intertwined with his life he doesn’t even know what it’ll be like when he finally manages to let her go. What is he going to do if they can’t play squash together on Friday afternoons?

“She will drop out of tournaments because Anthony needed shoulder surgery without a moment’s hesitant” …intriguing 
Follow up questions:
far long are they into their relationship does Anthony needed shoulder surgery?
Does Kate dropping out of tournaments cause a bit of tension, possibly because Anthony wants her to still play?
About 18 months in Anthony can no longer nurse his rotator cuff along and he needs surgery. Kate’s sat in the doctor’s office with him, her fingers intertwined with his while he nods.
“Okay, um, I’ll just need a few months to find someone to take over my students for a while.” Anthony cleared his throat as they sat on the car on the way home.
Kate nodded, “I mean… you have Gregory who does a bit but my Mum would love to help you. I know she would.”
Anthony chuckled, “I don’t doubt that and as much as I do believe your mum’s superhuman I don’t think she can be in two places at once, Babe.”
Kate frowned, staring ahead at the traffic. “Why would she need to be in two places at once?”
Anthony raised his eyebrows, “Ah… it’s the middle of the year? Right in the middle of your season.”
Kate scoffed, “Ant, I’m obviously not going on the tour while you have surgery.”
Anthony sighed, “Kate, don’t be silly. Daph can come check on me and-”
“I’m not just going to leave you. I hate clay anyway; I’m actually glad that I won’t have to do the French open.” She joked, kissing his cheek as they stopped at the traffic lights, “Then I can train at home, I promise I’ll wear a very short skirt to speed along your recovery.”
He rolled his eyes, “Kate, this is serious. You have a career and I-”
“Would you do this for me?”
He paused, “Of course I would but it’s not the same.”
“It’s exactly the same.” Kate sighed, “I love you and you’re my partner and I am going to be there to look after you.”
Anthony narrowed his eyes, “Why do I feel like there’s nothing I can do to convince you otherwise?”
“Because there isn’t.” Kate sighed, “I’m very happy to play nurse for you.”
Anthony groaned, “Well, that’ll be the shining light in my life I suppose.”
“I’m obviously already that.”
“Oh, obviously.”

Oh, Anthony definitely makes a game out of how many times he can kiss Kate in public on any given day. And Violet never hears the end of it from the women of the Ton.
Violet sighing as Anthony comes back to stand beside her, his cheeks flushed still watching Kate make her way across the room.
“The other Mamas are cross at you.”
Anthony scoffed, “This is the very first year I cannot possibly be accused of flirting with someone’s daughter. I’ve not looked at anybody other than my wife.”
“That’s the problem, Darling.” Violet sighed. “I think it’s very sweet that you’re so enamored with are. You look so much like Papa, but you cannot make a show of taking off your gloves to dance, Anthony.”
Anthony blinked at his mother, “But we’re married.”
“Even so, it’s not polite.”
He stared at her. “But we’re… married.”
Violet rolled her eyes, “And you’re in polite company. The other young ladies are getting ideas apparently.”
“I think what you’re saying is my wife and I should go home. Excellent idea, Mother, I wouldn’t want to disturb the young ladies.”
Violet caught him by the back of the coat tugging him back as he went to hurry his wife away. “No! You most certainly are not leaving! Stay where you are!”
“You were the one who wanted me to get married!”
“I didn’t think you’d cause this much trouble. I underestimated you.”

But, Molly, the way he kisses her in the middle of the damn ballroom like a whore and is so fucking pleased with himself afterwards.
Violet really can't take them anywhere.
Ugh, there’s so much of their new dynamic to unpack here.
First the fact that Francesca says she wants a second to herself and Anthony’s like-
“You do you Boo, have fun kids.”
He never would have done that when Daphne was making her debut. Never.
Then there’s the fact that he catches Kate’s eye across the room and the second their eyes meet she smiles at him as though she can’t help herself.
The little tilt of his head as he walks towards her like “Tell me not to come over if you’re busy 1-2-3 too late. I’m on my way!”
The fact that he’s talking to his MOTHER and he’s still like “Mum, Kate’s really pretty! She’s beautiful! She’s my wife! Did I mention that she was my wife? I want to dance! Come on let’s dance!”
(Kate and Violet are obviously talking about something and I love that they don’t seem to have a contentious relationship at all)
Then there’s the dancing. They’re not even wearing GLOVES. It mirrors the movements of their final dance in season 2 but they don’t have to stare longingly at one another anymore. They’re in love and the entire ton knows it. So Anthony takes the opportunity and sluts it up.
Her playful little gasp?
His little smirk?
The fact that the flashes of colour on his waistcoat match her dress perfectly???
The fact that last season they used her hair loosening to show the moments she was most herself and they were mostly when she and Anthony were alone and here she is with half her hair down at a society function because she feels more comfortable in herself with Anthony???
I need to call out sick from work today to recover

Molly, the way he beckons her over for a kiss and looks so damn proud afterwards.
I literally… i can’t do this if this is how sweet they’re going to be honestly. I can’t. I just can’t.
There’s a few things going on here with their posture that’s really sweet I think.
Look how tightly he’s holding her hand, and hers are holding both of his like neither of them want to let go. His chest is pressed against her arm they’re standing so close together and it’s still not enough for this man.
Kate’s trying to be serious, a good viscountess, a regal portrait and Anthony can’t help himself from leaning in a whispering in her ear. Probably some cheeky little private joke between the two of them and Kate melts as soon as she looks at him. She’s Kate again, not Lady Bridgerton.
The way he leans back and smiles at her before she leans in to kiss him? He expected it, they’ve done this before. They’re comfortable and confident enough in their affections to let the other person give what they want to in these moments and neither of them can help themselves from smiling when they pull back, enjoying the closeness for just a few more seconds.
Kate’s smile is pure contentment.
Anthony’s smile is pure “I was a brave little boy and poured my heart out to the pretty girl and look at the pay off gents. LOOK AT MY WIFE!! I AM A CHEEKY LITTLE SHIT 90 PERCENT OF THE TIME AND SHE LOVES ME!!!”
Anthony B could be lifting carriages alone this season with the joy radiating off him. I love this for them.

while I know all the Bridgersibs are ultimately happy for Anthony (esp now that he’s less of a hardass because he’s distracted by his beautiful wife LOL) I can’t wait to see the look of exasperation on their faces the 1000th time they’ve seen Kanthony giggle and kiss like lovesick teens on a random Tuesday afternoon. I know Eloise is the snarkiest about it at least 😆
Oh they’re super happy for Anthony. There’s such a difference in him after he tried to burn down the entire ton to be with Kate. He’s calmer, he’s more relaxed and they all love Kate. They loved her before it was certain that they’d be married. They love how she rolls her eyes and ignores Anthony. They love how she has no shame in taking a sly little dig at someone who expresses their concern and delight to find her still in England.
“Well, Lord Bridgerton and I have decided that our marriage might work best if I were to stay in England. A distant marriage isn’t suited for us I fear.”
Eloise and Francesca found themselves hiding their laughter behind their hands very poorly as the other woman gaped at Kate who seemed entirely unbothered as she sighed.
“Girls, your mother is expecting us for tea, we’d better be getting along.”
“I think you’re who I’d like to be when I grow up.” Eloise said still laughing as they made their way down the street. “You always seem to be able to get things exactly the way you want them. Anthony told me many times I couldn’t have a dog as he wouldn’t allow one in the house. I found Newton on the sofa the other day.”
Kate scoffed. “I find the trick to dealing with your brother is ignoring him and doing exactly as you mean to any way.”
They love Kate. They love that she gets so involved in their family games, they love her.
But the thing about Kate and Anthony is… they’re also Kate and Anthony.
They’re always tossing one another smiles and looks across the room and they sit after dinner with their heads bowed together giggling at something or other. Some private joke between the two of them.
It gets to be a bit much some time.
“Oh please!” Benedict groaned one night at the dinner table as Anthony grinned at his wife beside him. “No more I beg of you!”
“Yes!” Eloise hissed, “Some of us, are eating.”
“Some of us,” Anthony said easing his eyebrows, “Should be thankful that their brother hasn’t mentioned the articles I found tucked into a book calling for revolution.”
Eloise fell silent but Benedict only tutted, appealing to Kate. “Kate, I love you. You know I do. I would… fight a duel over you with Anthony if I thought you’d have me.”
Kate rolled her eyes. “I doubt that.”
Anthony looked affronted, “Don’t tempt me.”
“If you’ve ever cared for me,” Benedict carried on, “Please, please go and sit at the opposite end of the table.”
Anthony scoffed, “I don’t think that’s necessary.”
“Who are you?!” Benedict hissed, “You used to care about propriety!”
Kate gave Benedict a slow smile, winking at Anthony. “No, darling. Benedict’s right, this isn’t proper.” She turned down the table still smirking. “Violet would you swap with me?”
Violet looked a little wary but stood and took Kate’s seat so Kate was sat at the opposite end of the table from her husband, the entire family between them. She cleared her throat, talking loudly enough that they all had to hear.
“As I was saying, Darling: You look very handsome tonight.”
Anthony grinned as his siblings groaned, “You’re right Benedict. I do prefer this.”
“Yes!” Kate called out, “This is much more proper!”
“Thank you, Benedict.” Eloise sighed, “Thank you for this.”
“This isn’t exactly what I meant, obviously.”

He's still holding her hand. My man, no one is going to steal your wife in broad daylight. Violet's probably exhausted dragging him away from Kate all the time so he'd socialise with other people at balls and soirees.
Gif credit to dailybridgerton
To be honest, I think Violet’s already given up on trying to drag Anthony away from Kate. She’s just that relieved that he’s happily married. For a while there she could see Anthony headed towards a very miserable marriage and this one is so far removed from that.
Anthony’s always smiling these days, and she loves seeing that again. It’s like having the Anthony back from before Edmund died.
We see even in the trailer, he’s freely joking with his brothers again. He’s spending time with his family and it doesn’t feel like there’s so much pressure on him. He can enjoy his time because there’s someone to share the burden with. For that alone, for the fact that Anthony will let Kate help him in ways he wouldn’t let anyone else, Violet is thankful for her. If that means Lady Kate Bridgerton has an Anthony accessory at all times because his hand is clasped constantly in hers as he follows her around a ballroom: so be it.
The Bridgertons would never say it to Anthony’s face: But it’s actually very sweet the way he loves spending time with Kate.

As much as I truly loved the absolutely devastating yearning from their season, I'm so happy to get these behind the scenes photos.
My happiness probably shouldn't be so affected by Kate live-laugh-loving, but here we are.
I want to see Kate live-laugh-loving always.
I am being so serious when I say that I want to see Anthony fetching lemonade like a little packhorse. I want to see her dance card with just Anthony, Viscount Bridgerton scrawled sideways across the spaces. I want to see Anthony glowering at anyone who so much as looks at his wife unkindly.
I want to see Kate thriving in her new role as Viscountess
I also would like to see one little clip of Newton doing something ridiculous in the background like dragging one of Anthony’s shirts downstairs. Just imagine Anthony seriously trying to admonish Benedict who can’t seem to stop laughing.
“Was that Newton destroying my slippers again?”
“It might have been, brother.”
“Bloody dog!” Anthony muttered, “I should insist he lives outside.”
Benedict chuckled, “Are you planning to tell Kate no? We’ll have to jot it down, first time in history. A momentous occasion.”
“I tell her no all the time!” Anthony called to his brother’s retreating back. “She just doesn’t listen!”

I totally see Anthony, Viscount Bridgerton telling his valet that whatever gowns her ladyship orders, he would like the same fabric made into a matching waistcoat ❤️. Other than peeing on her in public, it's how he can basically state to everyone WE ARE TOGETHER. BEHOLD, THIS BEAUTIFUL WOMAN IS MINE. Okay, that's enough looking. She's mine, go look at your own woman now.
Just like how Kate and Anthony match in the BSCU 😍
It is my very firm belief that Kate and Anthony have an arrangement with their modiste and tailor respectively. Whenever Kate picks out fabric for a new dress her modiste sends a bolt of fabric over to Anthony’s tailor so he can have a waistcoat made to match.
It saves everyone time. His tailor literally cannot have Anthony stand there any longer mulling over which of two nearly identical fabrics match Kate’s dress better. They may as well use the exact fabric. Because Anthony wants to let everyone know that Lord and Lady Bridgerton are a matched set.
I’m also, on a side note, really excited to see Kate’s wardrobe this season. Last season’s clothes were picked out by Lady Danbury and Kate Sharma was also trying to fit in and fly under the radar. Lady Bridgerton has no reason to do that and I’m excited to see it

Molly, just look at how close they are holding each other compared to the other couples in the background. And Anthony looks like he's still in awe of her a year later.
The hilarious thing is Anthony has always been about maintaining no his family’s image in society. Season 1, that was his mission in life. Same to some extent in Season 2. He wanted to find a wife who would uphold the Bridgerton family name respectfully.
Now here he is, inviting His Beautiful Wife to do the regency equivalent of grinding followed by a slut drop.
Anthony, my man, no one’s going to take her off you again. I just know that this man has bodily stepped in front of other men talking to his wife in case it leads to a dance. And Kate probably lets him because he has a charming twinkle in his eye and she actually loves dancing with him. She kind of loves that while so many women’s husbands retire to drink brandy and gamble away the moment that should be set aside for their children if they even attend at all her husband is not.
Her husband has been kind to his sisters, commiserating that they don’t want to dance with foolish gentlemen and then he seeks her out. He finds time for her in his evening. She doesn’t even have to beg him to dance with her. It’s always his idea and the way he holds her still leaves her a little breathless, even a year into their marriage. He deposits her back with his mother or his brothers or sisters before he leans in and lets his lips brush her cheek before he murmurs in her ear.
“I’ll get you something to drink, Love. You look awfully flushed.”
There’s that annoying, cheeky, twinkle in his eyes when he pulls back, the same charming smile that slides right off his face when Benedict smirks,
“Can I have a drink, brother?”
Anthony blinked at him, “Of course you can. Fortunately, you’ve been blessed with two legs and two arms to fetch it yourself with.” He turned to the other ladies present. “Mother, Lady Danbury? Could Benedict and I fetch you a drink as well?”
Benedict grumbled something about being treated like a pack horse as Anthony tugged him away and the way Anthony winked at her before he left made her cheeks flush stupidly again. And it’s not long until the other ladies of the ton descend.
“Lady Bridgerton, we’ve not seen you since the wedding. The viscount seems… awfully enamored. Whatever is your trick?”
Kate laughed, feeling a little sad for these women who were never lucky enough to find the person who felt like their other half. She wouldn’t have done either were it not for a twist of fate. “There’s not any trick. He and I simply… enjoy one another’s company.”
“Lord, but isn’t it awfully hard work having him around all the time? Send him back to the country if you need a break.”
Kate bit off a surprised chuckle, “I must confess I’m yet to grow tired of him. Even when he’s a little grumpy he’s awfully amusing.”
“Ahh Ladies!” Anthony said as though having to fight through the crowd of women to get back to his wife was something that delighted him rather than annoyed him. “My dear brother was just saying how little he’d had to fortune to dance this evening. Perhaps you’ve your dance cards at the ready for him.”
Benedict looked as though he’d murder Anthony the next time they were alone and Kate didn’t bother to bite back her smile as Anthony giggled. The noise several years younger than he was. As though in this he was still the cheeky boy who’d helped his father put glue in Benedict’s shoes.
“And you? My Lord?”
Anthony sighed disappointedly, “I’m sorry to say that Lady Bridgerton has claimed all of my dances this evening.” He turned to Kate, grinning wickedly, “Love, you’re still looking flushed. Perhaps you should drink your lemonade in the fresh air.”
Kate nodded, “I think so, Darling.”
He tucked her hand into his arm, one hand still holding her glass and swept her away towards the garden without another word.
“Benedict is going to be cross with you.”
Anthony giggled again, “yes, he is. Especially because the actual conversation we had involved him asking you to dance to avoid those very women.”
“You’re feeling very cheeky tonight.”
Anthony let out a faux gasp. “Nonsense… I simply thought you might prefer to… inspect the maze in Lady Trowbridge’s garden. There’s some very… dark parts to it. I might need help noticing the flowers.”
“Yes, I suppose you will. You best show me then.”
As soon as they were out of sight, Anthony picked her up and ran into the maze.
