Based on Helen Fielding's bestselling novel, Mad About the Boy takes Bridget's story in a new direction. The film picks up years after Bridget Jones’s Baby (2016), with Bridget now a single mother of two, following the tragic death of her husband, Mark Darcy (played in previous films by Colin Firth). As she navigates the challenges of solo parenting, her friends encourage her to re-enter the dating scene, leading to a new romantic journey.

Celebrity guests such as Made in Chelsea's Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo, along with singers Beverley Knight and Jessie Ware, added glamour to the event.


Directed by Michael Morris, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is set to hit UK cinemas on Valentine’s Day. With a mix of nostalgia and fresh romance, fans are eagerly awaiting the return of their favourite fictional singleton on the big screen.
