Bessie Carter will soon be appearing alongside Imelda Staunton as the pair perform the iconic play, Profession.
While Imelda needs no introduction, her famous daughter has been enjoying a stratospheric rise to fame over the past few years as she took on the role of Prudence Featherington in the hit Netflix series, Bridgerton. While in the series, Prudence is married to Lord Dankworth, Bessie's love life is considerably different.

Bessie and Sam were first linked back in November 2023, when the couple were seen together at the premiere of Wonka, alongside Bessie's A-list mother.

Sam shared a snap of himself with his co-star on his social media, with one fan calling them a "lovely couple". In response, Sam replied: "Big love."
While the pair haven't officially confirmed their relationship, Bessie was seen planting a kiss on her beau's cheek as they enjoyed a country walk together.
Relationship with mother
Although Bessie has kept much of her relationship with her famous parents out of the spotlight, in a new interview with Tatler, she had high praise for them.
"It all felt really normal and removed the inaccessibility thing," she explained. "They know the influence they can have, they are so kind and generous."

"I wasn't aware of my parents being famous until my mum did Vera Drake and was nominated for an Oscar. That would have been about when I was 11 or 12. Until then, they were just actors. That was their job. It was just normal," she said.
