The actor's?Bridgerton character is getting a lot of queer-buzz?
In a recent interview with Decider, Madsen explained how fans had detected something "queer-coded" in her character's feelings for her new best friend Eloise. "Eloise and Cressida create a safe space for each other, which I love."?
"There is trust there, and they are inquisitive about one other because they are so different, and Eloise learns a lot from her about how unusual her life is," she explained.?
Madsen added, "And queer-coded? I truly adore that. That would be the finest! Yeah, that'd be cool. I'd like to think that makes sense because she hasn't bagged a guy. So, why not a gal? But, honestly, I have no idea."?
