During a visit to Tamron Hall's talk show on Monday, Bridgerton author Julia Quinn revealed that Shonda Rhimes became interested in adapting her books for TV after "stumbling” upon them while on holiday. “It’s crazy to think that my life is forever changed because Shonda didn't bring enough reading material on vacation, but that’s honestly what happened.” In a December interview with Oprah Magazine, Quinn revealed that she wasn't even thinking about optioning the books for TV when she heard that Rhimes was interested.
