Spoiler Alert: This list contains spoilers for Bridgerton Season 4, Part 1.Make haste for Mayfair’s shining diamond of the season. Season 4 of <em>Bridgerton</em> raises the stakes with a romance that breaks every rule of nobility. The town’s hottest bachelor, Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson), has never been one to settle down. That is, until he encounters a Lady in Silver at a masquerade ball — someone unlike any of the ladies of the ton.
There’s a good reason why she’s different: this mysterious woman isn’t even supposed to be there in the first place. The Lady in Silver is none other than Sophie Baek (Yerin Ha), a lowly servant at the Penwood Estate. Even as society insists their relationship is doomed to fail, these two opposites find comfort in being outsiders together. Without further ado, here are the most romantic scenes in Bridgerton Season 4, ranked.

Sophie and Benedict Get Caught in the Rain
Episode 3 “The Field Next to the Other Road”
The moment before this scene is anything but romantic. When Philip Cavender (Cavan Clarke) nearly assaults a fellow maid at this countryside cottage, Sophie immediately splashes water on him, which in turn almost gets her attacked. Luckily, Benedict is there to witness the entire ordeal, swooping in immediately to beat up Cavender and save Sophie.
Officially fired by Cavender, Benedict offers to take her back to Mayfair in his carriage. Even when he’s badly bruised, he’s still cheerful enough to make a chirpy quip towards a silent Sophie. It’s not the most romantic moment, but it shows how the dynamic between the two is when they’re stuck in sticky situations, with Sophie being the more resourceful one, while Benedict is slightly clueless.

Sophie and Benedict Spend Time in the Library
Episode 3 “The Field Next to the Other Road”
Throughout the entire Bridgerton series, all Benedict has ever wanted was to be taken seriously as an artist. However, his creative endeavors are often overshadowed by his notorious reputation as a rake. There are changes in this library scene, where Sophie walks in on Benedict sketching as he recovers from his injuries.
Sophie looks through his stack of paintings, much to Benedict’s sheepish embarrassment. But she doesn’t just praise his work — she understands the intention that Benedict tries to convey through his work. Her insight genuinely surprises Benedict and secretly brings him delight. Romance doesn’t always require grand gestures. Sometimes, it’s simply about being seen.
