Bridgerton superfan Kim Kardashian reacts to Regé-Jean Page leaving the show… after binge-watching amid her divorce: ‘Wait!!! WHAT????’

Kim Kardashian admitted last week that her latest binge worthy watch was Netflix‘s Bridgerton, sharing emotional musings while watching the show and saying she was ‘obsessed.’  

And on Friday the 40-year-old megastar reacted to news that star Regé-Jean Page, 31, would not be returning as the Duke of Hastings for season two, by commenting under an announcement that appeared on the show’s Instagram page. 

A shocked Kim commented on the photo ‘Wait!!! WHAT????’ as she preemptively mourned the loss of the show’s handsome breakout star.

 The news of Page’s leaving was stylized as a Lady Whistledown society paper announcement in true show fashion. 

An excerpt from the letter read: ‘We bid adieu to Regé-Jean Page, who so triumphantly played the Duke of Hastings. We’ll miss Simon’s presence on screen but he will always be part of the Bridgerton family.’ 

Kim was quick to comment on the announcement, ‘Wait!!! WHAT????’ after binge-watching the whole season last week with her eyes on a second season. 

And later reposted the announcement to her Instagram page writing ‘I’m NOT ok!!!!! What is happening!!??? How can this be?’

 Page touched on his departure and thanked fans of the show with a comment on the page as well. 

 ‘It’s been an absolute pleasure and a privilege! Joining this family – the connection on and off screen, with our cast, our crew, all the incredible fans, has been like nothing I could have ever imagined – the love is real and will just keep growing.’ 

Last week Kim shared snippets of a night in with wine while watching as she provided commentary. ‘What is happening?!?! I’m not crying!’ she wrote about a waltz scene between Page and Phoebe Dynevor who plays Daphne Bridgerton. 

Perhaps crushing on the British born actor who has stolen hearts everywhere, Kim was not ready to see him go after getting so invested in the show.

The series has become a saving grace for many amid the pandemic, but for Kim the British drama’s fantasy aspect has provided a much needed distraction amid her divorce from Kanye West. 

The pair are currently in the process of dividing up their assets after she officially filed in February following bombshell reports in January that divorce was ‘imminent’ for the couple of seven years. 

They had reportedly stopped speaking and he was hunkered down in Wyoming while she remained in Los Angeles with their four kids — things coming to a head over the summer when he shared intimate details of their personal life during his bizarre presidential bid and a defamatory twitter outburst. 

It has been said that she is set to get their $60M Hidden Hills estate in the divorce, and she was seen adding an entire mini town to the property last week that included her very own tiny KKW Beauty store. 

She had first met with her high power divorce attorney Laura Wasser in July, and the events of the split are currently unfolding on the family’s final season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
