The announcement was made in a letter from Lady Whistledown that the official \"Bridgerton\" account shared on Instagram.

\"Rarely is this author granted the opportunity to share with you such information,\" the letter reads, before revealing the big announcements.

\"It would seem this author is going to be quite busy,\" it adds.

Season 4 of \"Bridgerton\" will follow the second Bridgerton son, Benedict, played by Luke Thompson, and his romance with Sophie Baek, played by Yerin Ha.

\"Bridgerton\" is based on the novels by Julia Quinn. Season 4 will consist of eight episodes. 

Jess Brownell serves as the showrunner while Shonda Rhimes, Betsy Beers, Tom Verica and Chris Van Dusen are executive producers.
