Eloise Bridgerton's friendship with Penelope Featherington is on the rocks after figuring out that she's Lady Whistledown. Claudia Jessie as Eloise Bridgerton and Nicola Coughlan as Penelope Featherington on the season two finale of "Bridgerton." But before Eloise could lie to Queen Charlotte, Penelope purposely wrote another scathing issue of Lady Whistledown's gossip column and revealed that Eloise was associating with political radicals. In the finale, Eloise noticed the way Penelope gossiped about the other attendees at a party and realized that she was Lady Whistledown. Penelope justified writing the scandalous news about Eloise because she felt it was the only way to convince Queen Charlotte that Eloise wasn't Whistledown.
