The first part of Bridgerton season 4 ended on an awkward note with Sophie and Benedict - so where does the show go from here after that offer? Netflix's hit Regency series returned on Thursday, January 29, with Benedict (Luke Thompson) initially falling for a mysterious woman he met at his mother's masquerade ball. Things got more complicated when he developed feelings for a maid named Sophie (Yerin Ha) - which we will know is the woman from the ball.
