I loved it too. All the fun and the fluff of the previous Bridget narratives, but with something deeper and more meaningful woven through it. The best yet I think. I’m so glad it told some of your stories and feelings in a positive way. ā¤ļøšŸ’œ

This is a very moving piece, Rachel, thank you. My own experience of losing the man I love happened over twenty years ago now, but many of the things you wrote still ring true for me. I haven’t seen the new Bridget Jones film yet, but when I do I suspect I’ll feel that some scenes from my life have been captured too. Thank you for sharing this.

Thanks so much. It's a nice thing when a movie expressed something with truth. Go see. Take tissues. And a healthy dose of scepticism about the romance!
