Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another story. Today’s a bit different, it’s about someone who’s been popping up on my screen a lot lately – Jessica Madsen. Yeah, the one from Bridgerton. She plays Cressida Cowper, you know, the resident mean girl.
So, I started digging around because, why not? First thing I did was, well, I just typed her name into Google. “Jessica Madsen.” And bam, a whole bunch of stuff came up. Turns out, she’s 32, born in 1992. And she’s not just Cressida, she was in some horror flick called Leatherface back in 2017. Who knew?
But that’s not what got me hooked. It was all this talk about her being “in love with a woman.” This was news to me! I went through a bunch of articles. One from, like, June 1st, 2024, where she’s talking about her relationship status. Then there was another one where she straight-up says, “In love with a woman, loud about it and proud about it!” Good for her, seriously.
I kept going, looking for more. I even found this one interview with some site called, uh, “1883”? Never heard of it. But she’s talking about Cressida’s chemistry with another character, Eloise, I think. And how she wants Cressida to be happy, even though she’s the “mean girl.” That made me see her in a whole new light, to be honest.
Now, about that woman she’s in love with… I couldn’t find a name! Just that she said she’s bisexual before, and now she’s all happy and proud with this woman. I was trying to piece together a timeline, you know? Like, did she say anything about this before? Was there a big announcement?
It seemed like this was something new, at least to the public. I was scrolling through all these posts about Pride Month, and it felt like she was coming out, but also not really? It was more like she was just letting everyone in on what was already happening in her life. She is dating a man called Benji Philipson now.
I was on this mission, I tell you. I spent hours going through all this stuff. And the more I read, the more I respected her. It takes guts to just be yourself, especially when you’re in the public eye like that. To say, “Yeah, I’m in love, and it’s with a woman, and I’m happy, and that’s that.”
- Step one: Just Googled her name.
- Step two: Found out she’s 32 and was in a horror movie.
- Step three: Read a bunch of articles about her being “in love with a woman” and Benji Philipson is her boyfriend.
- Step four: Found an interview where she talked about her Bridgerton character.
- Step five: Tried to figure out the timeline of her relationship.
- Step six: Realized she’s just being herself and I’m here for it.
So, yeah, that’s my Jessica Madsen deep dive. It wasn’t what I expected, but it was definitely interesting. It’s a reminder that there’s always more to people than what you see on the surface. And that being true to yourself is always the best way to be.
