Yerin Ha Says She Developed Hives After Seven-Hour Bridgerton Bathtub Shoot

Overview

• Ha says she broke out in hives and folliculitis the day after filming a bathtub intimacy scene and used cortisone cream for treatment.
• She explains that she dusted herself with baby powder to help tape intimate wardrobe and suspects the mix of powder and bath water triggered the reaction.
• Luke Thompson says the bathtub sequence took roughly seven hours to film, with on-set resets as water spilled and the tub was refilled.
• Production rescheduled work when Thompson tested positive for influenza during filming, according to the actors’ interviews.
• Both performers emphasize clear communication on set and say the intimate scenes were designed to serve the story rather than to be gratuitous.
