Who is Michaela Stirling in Bridgerton?
The last episode of Bridgerton has resolved many plotlies but initiated new storyline of Michaela Stirling who had brief appearance in the previous seasons.
After her introduction in the finale, Julia Quinn’s writings unfold that Michaela’s role is going to be impactful in the upcoming Bridgerton seasons.
Michaela Stirling is introduced as John Stirling’s cousin when she appears on the Dankworth-Finch ball. It is hinted that she will accompany Francesca and John to Scotland, along with Eloise.
Michaela’s character seems charismatic yet treacherous when she says, “Every sordid detail John has told you about me is a lie. The truth is far worse.”

Although the romance between Michaela and Francesca seems unassuming, Bridgerton season 3 has already hinted at this.
When they meet for the first time, Francesca lacks words. This references an earlier conversation in which Violet could barely speak to Francesca’s father at the first meeting.
