Olandria stole the show at the premiere of Bridgerton season 4 in Paris

Dearest reader the moment we have all been waiting for is finally upon us. Last night, Bridgerton Season 4 made its grand debut in Paris, welcoming the full cast to a premiere as lavish and theatrical as the world of Mayfair itself. Among those in attendance was South African actress Masali Baduza, who joins the new season as Michaela Stirling, marking yet another powerful moment for South African talent on the global stage.

The cast brought Regency romance to life off-screen, but as the night unfolded, one guest emerged as the undeniable star of the evening. That honour belonged to Olandria. Catapulted into the spotlight after her appearance on Love Island, Olandria proved that her cultural influence extends far beyond reality television.
