by

As an ardent admirer of Luke Newton and his captivating portrayal of Colin Bridgerton, I find myself constantly enthralled by the fascinating tales that unfold from his personal life experiences. The recent anecdote shared by him in People Magazine is a heartwarming testament to the profound impact he has on people’s lives, even when they may be under the misconception of his identity.

Today, Bridgerton is an undeniable phenomenon, with its actors gaining international adoration, including Luke Newton who charmed audiences as Colin Bridgerton in the Netflix series, earning him a beloved status among fans. Yet, he occasionally receives reminders of his fame, even from unexpected quarters. In an interview with People Magazine, the actor shared one such surprising encounter with a taxi driver, all due to The Crown’s Ed McVey.

In simpler terms, Newton stated, “During my stay in Paris, I shared a car with Ed McVey, who’s known for The Crown. Since both Luke and Ed act in historical dramas, they had plenty to discuss during their ride. Newton mentioned that the driver seemed to have been listening to their conversation as well. Upon reaching his destination, the driver asked Luke Newton for something.

31-year-old actor from Bridgerton humorously consented when asked for a photo at the airport by a fan, despite not being in The Crown. He jokingly agreed, knowing that the fan’s wife would likely be disappointed to receive a picture of him instead.

The star took the humbling interaction in his stride, taking it to be his “reality check,” saying, “It was kind of nice. Bring me back down to Earth.”
