After keeping the secret under wraps for an entire year, Lenana Kariba has finally shared the exciting news that he is part of Bridgerton Season 4.

The Kenyan actor expressed his joy at being able to publicly announce his involvement in one of Netflix’s most beloved period dramas set in early-1800s London (the Regency era), describing his debut United Kingdom role as nothing short of epic.

“I’m in Bridgerton. So happy to finally be able to say those words after a year of having to stay quiet,” Kariba shared with evident excitement.

Landing what he describes as an epic first role in the UK, working on Bridgerton has not just been a job for him. It has been a masterclass in acting, surrounding him with some of the best talents in the business.

“The first role I took in the UK was an epic one and I’ve had the amazing opportunity to be surrounded by some of the best,” he explained.

If you have already watched the first part of Season 4, you might have caught glimpses of him in the background.

But don’t worry if you missed him, because Kariba promises there is plenty more to come.

“Re-watch Season 4 part 1 to see me in the background but be prepared for more in part 2,” he teased.

The response to his announcement was immediate and heartwarming, as friends, fans, and fellow Kenyans flooded his comments with congratulations.

“Guys I’m overwhelmed by the love and support you’ve all shown here. To each and everyone that has taken the time to congratulate me THANK YOU, it means so much to me,” he responded gratefully.
For Kariba, this isn’t just about personal achievement. It’s about showing the world what Kenyan talent can do.

“It means so much to me to represent Kenya in any little way that I can. 254 TO THE WORLD,” he declared.

Fans are already marking their calendars for part two, eager to see more of Kariba’s performance in the Regency-era world that has captivated millions worldwide.
