Speaking exclusively to Glamour back in 2022, Jessie referred to it as “the best audition” she’d ever had.

"That's a lot to do with [casting associate] Cole Edwards, who I had auditioned with. It was so much fun, and I felt really comfortable. And then that was it."

Jesse joked to The Guardian, admitting that she "got a job and a fella on the same day" at her Bridgerton audition.

Jessie plays the role of a member of the upper crust of society.

Opening up about her character in the series, the Birmingham-raised actor told the outlet that she credits her casting to her alleged partner.

She said: "I can do a really good posh accent, because you're so used to hearing them growing up — imitating them is easy.”

"I got a job and a fella on the same day," she continued. "It was a great day for me, wasn't it?"

For the unversed, the two have been discreet about their relationship since beginning and prefer to keep it that way.
