LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: It’s been more than three weeks since the first half of ‘Bridgerton: Season 3’ dropped on Netflix, but fans have yet to recover from the magic of Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton’s (Luke Newton) sizzling chemistry. 

The fourth episode of the first lot ended with the uber-famous carriage scene that finally brought the two lovers together for the first time, per Daily Mail.

Not only together, but the eclectic scene also marked Penelope getting intimate with the man of her dreams after years of pining for him.

While the scene has undoubtedly emerged as one of the most replayed scenes of Polin’s story, little could anyone imagine how the scene would have affected the fans. 

If a certain Reddit thread is to be considered, it would be safe to assume the third season has improved several couple’s marriages and their marital relationships.

Fans share their stories of Polin

The Redditors did not shy away from sharing their positive stories on the Reddit thread.

One of the Polin fans gushed, "This season has done wonders for my marriage... anyone else? My hubby is quite pleased. I told him he's in for it once part 2 is released 😂 Thank you Polin 🐝🔥😍."

Someone else chimed in, "I think my husband would agree. I’m not even kidding when I say I got a positive pregnancy test two weeks after watching the carriage scene 😩 (all good things lol). But be careful after part 2 y’all."

Meanwhile, another older fan quipped, "Congrats!!! We're a bit older (mid-40's and done with babies) but it's been a nice refresher for us 😂."

Another fan sounded surprised when they said, "Omg I thought I was alone! My husband is DEF getting a lot of…ahem…extra affection. He may pass away from dehydration after p2 if I don’t die from the intimate scene in episode 5 😂."

"In 17 years, when there's a glut of college applications from high school seniors named "Carriage"...," joked someone while paying a tribute to their primary inspiration.

"Congratulations on the polination 🐝👶🎉," hilariously added someone else.

"I may consider trying to date again after all this. 😅," said another inspired fan. 

Someone else added, "Makes one wonder how many babies named after Colin or Penelope will be born in 9 months time. (Or Nicola and Luke, for that matter.)."

"I asked hubby to watch the carriage scene and he's been invested since. We watched parts 2's trailer last night and he's stoked 😂," shared someone else.

What’s next for ‘Bridgerton’ fans?

Despite the conjectures, if anyone feels this is all, then they might be wrong. If we judge by the ‘Bridgerton’ standard, there will be more such steamy scenes as the show makes a comeback with the second half dropping on June 13.

This week, a teaser trailer for the concluding part of Polin’s story was released, and promised plenty of jaw-dropping and butterfly-inducing romance. 

This would not be all as fans would also see Penelope battling to keep her identity as Lady Whistledown a secret while enjoying her courtship with Colin.
