It seems Kim Kardashian is among the many who have fallen in love with Bridgerton and its dashing leading man Regé-Jean Page!

Upon its release on Christmas Day 2020, Netflix’s romantic Regency-era drama quickly captivated viewers around the world to become one of the streamer’s most-watched titles of all time. While there is a lot to love about the series, there’s no denying Regé-Jean Page’s performance as the Simon Basset might be the show’s standout performance.

As the Duke of Hastings, Page delivered a swoon-worthy performance and quickly emerged as the internet’s favorite new TV boyfriend… and it seems Page can count one of the queens of reality TV among his most famous fans!

While Kim Kardashian might not have time to throw herself into too many shows, it appears Bridgerton has become a favorite for the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star! Like many, Kim can’t get enough of Bridgerton and has recently begun rewatching the show once again.

Even better, she’s now trying to make fans out of her sisters Khloe Kardashian and Kendall Jenner fans during her latest rewatch. I mean, is there any truer sign of an individual’s fandom than when they try to get their family and friends to watch a show they love?!

Kim Kardashian is not a fan of Regé-Jean Page leaving Bridgerton

While Kim Kardashian is a fan of Bridgerton, she’s not a fan of the show’s inability to bring Regé-Jean Page back for the show’s upcoming second season!

Needless to say, when Netflix announced Page would not be returning for season 2 the hearts of fans across the globe broke as fans quickly took to social media to vent their frustrations over the Duke of Hastings’ exit.

“Wait!!! WHAT????” Kim wrote in reacting to the show’s Instagram post announcing Page’s exit from the show — clearly in shock and at a loss. Honestly, Kim’s reaction couldn’t have been more real and perfectly sums up the collective shock and disappointment felt by fellow fans over Page’s exit.
