Bridget Jones is now 43. In the early part of the movie she goes to the memorial service or is it a funeral of Daniel Cleaver. The cad Daniel Cleaver is presumed dead in a plane crash. His body though is never found. That, as usual, in my opinion will give a possibility to another sequel. At this event, Bridget sees her ex Mark Darcy with his wife.
Miranda, Bridget's friend at the TV station where she works, offers to take her out on her 43rd birthday. They go to a music festival. Miranda challenges Bridget to sleep with the first man she meets. Well, falling down in the muddy field of the festival's site, Bridget is helped to her feet by a handsome stranger. That night, after attending Ed Sheeran's concert, a drunk Bridget accidentally crawls into the tent (or is it a yurt) of the stranger who helps her in the mud. They ended up sleeping together.
Returning home, Bridget then goes to the christening of her friend's Jude youngest child, to whom she is godmother. And the godfather? None other than Mark Darcy. Mark tells Bridget he and his wife are in the process of getting a divorce. Bridget and Mark end up sleeping together.
Later on Bridget finds herself pregnant. She decides to keep the child, although she realises she doesn't know who the father of her child is. Could it be Jack, the guy at the festival, or could it be Mark Darcy her old boyfriend. By the way, Jack turns out to be Jack Qwant, a billionaire and the inventor of a dating site with algorithm. Both Jack and Mark each individually knows that Bridget is pregnant but each does not know the existence of the other. That is, until at one of Bridget's work events both men meet. The trio end up having dinner together when Bridget spills the bean. While the baby is in her womb Bridget is against the idea of having DNA test on the baby as she is terrified that it might cause a miscarriage.
A few more incidents happen with the heavily pregnant Bridget. She is after all, from what we know of previous episodes, a rather clumsy individual at times. She surprises her mother, who is in the process of being elected into a council woman, with her pregnancy news. She even manages to lose her job due to a terrible mix-up of her programme guest ha ha ha. Fast forward Bridget is in labour with both Jack and Mark present. Bridget gives birth to a baby boy.
Bridget will marry one of the man, the father of her son, at the end of the story. However the movie ends with a newspaper lying on a bench revealing Daniel Cleaver is found alive in the woods where the wreckage of the plane is. Ha ha ha he will come back and wreak havoc in Bridget's marriage I suppose?
The movie retains most of its former cast. New faces are Patrick Dempsey as Jack Qwant, Emma Thompson as Dr. Rawlings, and Sarah Solemani as Miranda.
