How close are Simone and Jonny do you think? I feel like they're more work friends than real life friends. We never see them hang out together outside of the set but Jonny's been out with a lot of his other costars, the latest one being NC (again) 🙄🙄 It's really stupid I know but I'm sad that they're not really BFFs away from the show

Hello anon! Thanks for waiting and sending this in. Okay so you're not stupid for feeling this way and you aren't alone either - I've had to talk down multiple friends and mutuals from spiralling about their friendship. So if those friends wanna interact with this post and let anon know they can vent to yall about this too, go ahead shshsh.

It's easy to feel sad about this because their chemistry as friends off screen is JUST as compelling as it was on screen. Like the moment they were pictured together after Tadum at the cafe, you can tell how they both have such love and adoration for each other. Literally that's what best friendships are made of. I actually look at my besties that way - they just looked overjoyed to be in each other's company. Who doesn't want that? There's also a warmth to them that draws you in and you want to see more of them together!

EDIT: I was looking for pictures of her for my other ask and found the photo I was talking about! They are so soft I love them 🥺🥺🥺

Totally understandable but - and brace yourself for Rational Sanji- we have to accept that these two are hella hardworking and are constantly doing projects between their downtime for Bridgerton. They are also notoriously private. These two things are some of the reasons they get along so well which is great that they are so alike and understand each other on that level.

That being said, I honestly think they are really close, out of all the cast. Which is saying something because Jonny had a whole season with the rest of them and he seems the most in tune with Simone. Also going back to my second paragraph, you can see the admiration between them and how much they like each other as people. I think them not posting every little outing or interacting is due to 1) Privacy in terms of outings and also IG algorithms suck and 2) Yall they have phones, they probably text and call each other all the time. As for not hanging out in public very often - again due to their work and having conflicting schedules and being in different places before they come down to shoot for Bridgerton!

I wouldn't worry about it, anyone can see they are definitely set besties and hold each other in high regard and have a deep affection for one another. It's truly an amazing bond they have and one I share with my own best friends - it's wonderful to have people like that in your corner!

All this being said, it isn't our business at the end of the day and we should remember it is a privilege that they do let us into their personal lives every once in a while with their posts. But hopefully in terms of Bridgerton content we can get more BTS of them together!

[Also lmao I got so passionate about Jimone I couldn't be bothered to tackle the NC part of the ask kfjdkfjh but eh I wouldn't read into it I'm sure when the microaggressions aren't directed at her white costars she's not terrible company.]
