Bridgerton star Jonathan Bailey joined Hackney Half Marathon runners amid season 3 release
While Bridgerton fans are catching up with the actor’s escapades around the ton in the latest Netflix series, Bailey joined over 20,000 runners in the 2024 Hackney half marathon on Sunday (May 19).
He revealed he would be running the 13.1 mile course across Hackney’s many green spaces, on Saturday (May 18). In a post on Instagram he revealed he was running for the LGBT+ charity, Just Like Us, who support young people across the UK.

Following the race, he shared a post run photo of himself wearing a mint athletic look on the photo sharing platform as he thanked fans for their “continued knockout donations” to the charity.
While the Wizz Air Hackney Half Marathon is London’s largest and most popular half marathon, it's not the only capital race the actor has run over the years. Bailey previously ran the famous 26.2 mile London Marathon course in 2015.
The actor’s latest marathon follows the release of the first half of Bridgerton season three on Netflix which came out last Thursday (May 16).
In the new instalment of the popular show, Bailey reprised his role as the newlywed Viscount Anthony Bridgerton after tying the knot with Kate Sharma.
