You’ll find you aren’t alone after all.
“There’s a certain level of cockiness to her this season,” Coughlan toldTodayin March 2022.
Edwina meticulously crafts her own personality to be inoffensive and wholly ladylike.

One fan writes on Reddit: “Seriously, was [Edwina] even a character?
Sure, all of this internal turmoil is needed for the slow-build romance.
