Regé-Jean Pagehad quite a few NSFW scenes inBridgerton— and not everyone in his circle got the heads up.
In the hit Netflix period drama, Page’s character, Simon Bassett, the Duke of Hastings, has a series of intimate sex scenes with costarPhoebe Dynevor, who plays Daphne Bridgerton.
During a Thursday appearance onThe Graham Norton Show, Page, 31, revealed that his family discussed the scenes in a group chat, signaling the ones to avoid with “flashing red light emojis.”
“We’ve got a family WhatsApp group, so there’s a couple flashing red light emojis and there’s the odd peach emoji — certain people have threatened to rate my peach,” he joked.

But some of his cousins weren’t included in the chat — and didn’t know what they had coming when they watched the series.
“A couple of cousins missed the memo,” Page said. “So they’re watching the show and I got a very stern message in my Instagram DMs just going, ‘There really needs to be a cousin warning.'”
He recalled his cousin telling him, “I had to make so many tactical cups of tea — I left the room to make my tactical cup of tea and came back and you were still going!'”
Dynevor, 25, previously revealed during an appearance onThe Drew Barrymore Showthat shefast-forwarded through the scenes in questionwhen she watchedBridgertonwith her grandparents.
“I had to stand there with the remote ready at any given point to fast-forward for them not to see any of the things I didn’t want them to see,” she said. “We got through it. It was PG-13 for my grandparents.”
