"Lady Penwood quickly begins questioning Violet about Benedict's marriage prospects, but during the tense conversation, several viewers' attention drifted to Araminta's jewelry. In addition to her earrings, fans noticed an adhesive bandage covering the corner of actor Katie Leung's left ear where a cartilage piercing might be. "Band-Aids in this era?! 👀 The ton want to know," one fan said on TikTok. As another commented, "Yeah, I wish they had covered it better - like put a fancy ear cuff up there or something.""
"In Season 1, viewers pointed out modern traffic lines painted on the streets of London, and for many fans, Season 3's styling felt less historically accurate than previous seasons. There's a reason for that, as showrunner Jess Brownell told BuzzFeed: "Everything in a rom-com is a little bit heightened. The tone this year is a little bit more comedic. So it felt acceptable this season to push the boundaries more than usual on historical accuracy and just lean into the fun.""
A small adhesive bandage is visible on Araminta's left ear during Violet Bridgerton's masquerade ball in Season 4, drawing viewer attention. The bandage covers the corner of actor Katie Leung's ear near a cartilage piercing and elicited comments on social media about its anachronism and placement. Band-Aids, as a branded adhesive bandage, were invented in 1920, over a century after the Regency-era setting. Bridgerton has had prior historical flubs, including modern traffic lines in Season 1 and perceived styling shifts in Season 3. Showrunner Jess Brownell described a deliberate tonal choice to heighten rom-com elements and relax strict historical accuracy.
