Bridgerton's Masali Baduza and Hannah Dodd are addressing whether Michaela and Francesca's relationship will be accepted by society after the show's controversial gender swap twist. "I don't think we're there yet to fully be understanding, but I hope that we've opened up the possibility already and people are a little bit more open is all I can say, really," Dodd, 30, told Deadline on Monday, March 2, about how other characters will react to Michaela and Francesca's romance. Dodd went on to tease where the fictional couple currently stand.
