Madsen took to social media to share her experience

Jessica Madsen, who plays Cressida Cowper on Bridgerton, has come out as bisexual.

The actress shared a post to her Instagram account on Thursday, celebrating the beginning of Pride month. Madsen also took the opportunity to tell her followers that she is currently in love with a woman.

“I’ve been hiding this for so long, but I’m finally ready to be me,” Madsen wrote. “I’m bisexual, and I’m in love with a woman.”

Madsen's post has been met with overwhelming support from fans and followers. The post has received thousands of likes and comments, many of which offer their congratulations and support to the actress.

Madsen is not the first Bridgerton star to come out as LGBTQ+. In March, actor Nicholas Coughlan, who plays Penelope Featherington on the show, came out as gay.

The growing number of LGBTQ+ actors and characters on Bridgerton is a testament to the show's commitment to diversity and representation.
