Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Lady Whistledown reports on the celebration of Anthony’s 39th birthday. Anthony jokes that Lady Whistledown must have a spy in their family. He disagrees with her report on their dismal concert, but Kate says they are always dreadful musicians. Anthony reflects on his birthday: He spent most of the afternoon in his study, talking to his father’s portrait. He told Edmund’s image about his three children, about how Violet is doing, and about how much he loves Kate. Anthony realizes his life now is what his father always wanted for him.
At midnight, Kate and Anthony retire to bed. Kate asks if Anthony saw what Whistledown wrote about Colin, and she suspects the writer has feelings for him. Anthony replies that he does not wish to discuss Whistledown when he has “much better things to do,” and he kisses Kate. In a small but elegant house nearby the Bridgertons’ residence, Lady Whistledown begins drafting her next issue.
Kate and Anthony have been married for 15 years, and she is confident she can distract him long enough to secure the mallet of death for the day’s game of Pall Mall. Anthony surprises her, revealing that he already claimed the black mallet. The next day, Anthony reflects on the first game Kate ever played, where she claimed the mallet of death and hit his ball into the lake.
