Based on Edith Wharton’s unfinished final novel, the series centers on a group of fun-loving American girls who “explode into the tightly corseted London season of the 1870s, kicking off an Anglo-American culture clash as the land of the stiff upper lip is infiltrated by a refreshing disregard for centuries of tradition,” per the official synopsis. “Sent to secure husbands and titles, the buccaneers’ hearts are set on much more than that, and saying ‘I do’ is just the beginning.”
Season 1 ended with Nan (played by Kristine Fr?seth) marrying Theo (Guy Remmers) and gaining the duchess title to protect both her sister Jinny (Imogen Waterhouse) and mother Patti (Christina Hendricks), who’ve left their respective spouses. This was after Nan professed her love to Guy (Matthew Broome) and had chosen him over the duke.
“She’s obviously in love with Guy,” Fr?seth previously told TVLine. “[Nan and Theo] had small moments but overall, I think it’s not going to be a great marriage. It’s going to be forced.”
Matthew Broome noted that he didn’t believe that Guy, who accompanied Jinny to America, would leave things up in the air with Nan. “I think he’s going to come back,” Broome said. “At the moment, what’s going on with Jinny and Seadown is more important, and they make that sacrifice. But they do have that line about love bringing them back together, and I think they both believe that. I think if their love is strong enough, then they will find a way.”
