It has been confirmed that the British-Zimbabwean star will not be returning for the second season of Shonda Rhimes’ most-recent popular series. In a post via the show’s official Instagram page on Friday, the news was revealed, Lady Whistledown style:
“Dear Readers, while all eyes turn to Lord Anthony Bridgerton’s quest to find a Viscountess, we bid adieu to Regé-Jean Page, who so triumphantly played the Duke of Hastings,” the message read.
