Rege-Jean Page has dismissed claims he is returning to Bridgerton.
The 34-year-old actor became a household name thanks to his portrayal of the Duke of Hastings in the first season of the Netflix period drama, but quit before season two.
And though it was recently reported he was in talks to return for the third season of the show, he insisted there are no plans to do so, though he had a great time catching up with his former co-star Jonathan Bailey in Milan, Italy, recently.

An insider said: “Rege-Jean was always very open about his intention to quit the show after the first season and to move on to other projects. But recently there has been a dialogue between him and the show’s bosses. “Nothing has been formally agreed yet, but watch this space.” Rege-Jean has also been mentioned as a possible candidate to replace Daniel Craig as James Bond. But whatever happens, 2022 is set to be an “exciting year” for the actor. The insider explained: “Things are very up in the air at the moment, but this will be an exciting year for Rege, without a doubt.” Meanwhile, Rege-Jean previously compared leaving Bridgerton to his last day of school. The actor explained: “You’re afraid of the unknown, thinking, ‘Oh, my God, I’m never going to make friends as good as the ones I have,’ and then you do.”
