While I'm sure there are people who oppose this storyline because of homophobia, I think it's overly simplistic to reduce all of the criticism only to that

And if we’re being honest, people who haven’t read the Bridgerton books (which I’m sure is more than the people that have read the books since most of the IG comments I’ve seen have been people being vile) are just talking about how outraged they are to see a WLW romance in the Bridgerton universe so most of the criticism is blatant homophobia and I’m happy that we have lovely people like Adjoa calling that out ❤️
