"There are so many extras and so many crew members, and itās a very intimate show," she continued. "It just baffles me how we would film it under COVID rules unless there was a vaccine beforehand.ā

Even though COVID-19 vaccines have started being distributed, we still don't know if you can spread the disease even if you've been vaccinated ā so wearing a mask and social distancing might still be necessary in the future.
Bridgerton's first season wrapped last year before the pandemic really kicked into high gear, but Phoebe's worked on set since ā specifically, for TV Land's dramedy Younger ā and she shared her experience working on that show to illuminate the struggles Bridgerton's cast and crew would face.

āWhen I was filming, it was masks on in rehearsals," she explained. "So you donāt take them off until you say action. Or at least we didnāt. It was a really strange experience. I didnāt see my characterās new boyfriendās face until we were filming a scene together, which was really bizarre.ā
