It's April 7th. You're listening to Derm news today. AI-powered local news. I'm Cory with the story. Regigeon Page may be off Bridgerton, but he's still keeping tabs on the drama. The 38-year-old actor told Doos your magazine on April 6th that he checks in now and then because of his friends on set. He even joked he's up enough on season 4 to avoid asking anyone to be as mistress, nodding to Benedict's messy secret commitment plot that had. Fans fired up. Page dipped out after the show's 2020 premiere, where he stole hearts as the Duke of Hastings opposite Daphne. Netflix dropped the news in April 2021 that he wouldn't return, even though Daphne was set for more seasons. That exit hit hard for viewers hooked on their chemistry in the Regency-era Love Hunt. Fast forward to a recent red carpet, and the interviewer pressed him on coming back. Page played it cool, saying he's not on the internet so he misses the fanbuzz, then thanked her and bounced to the next chat. Fans keep clamoring for his return, but he's not biting.

Showrunner Jess Brownell shut down recasting ideas in February, calling it a disservice to page in Phoebe Dinovore's season 1 magic. She left the door cracked for a real comeback, with a juicy row, not some quick funeral cameo. For now, the Duke's just offscreen in the background. Bridgerton's rolling strong on Netflix, blending high society scandals with those heartfelt twists we crave.
