Like millions of us, Kim Kardashian is a huge Bridgerton fan.

And now the reality TV star - who appears alongside her sisters in Keeping Up With the Kardashians - has just discovered that some of the characters in the smash hit Netflix series were inspired by herself and her famous family.

Nicola Coughlan, who stars in Bridgerton as Penelope Featherington, confirmed that Kim was a 'massive inspiration' for the Featherington characters. She even took to Twitter to make sure Kim knew how much impact she unknowingly had.

She tweeted: "As the world's number one @bridgerton Stan does @KimKardashian know that the Kardashians were a massive inspiration for the Featheringtons and we talked about them all the time during our fittings? Because I feel like she should know this.'

The tweet soon landed in Kim's dedicated Bridgerton group chat and she immediately took to Twitter to respond.

Kim replied: "What?!?! I am freaking out!!!!!! This tweet was sent to me on my @bridgerton group chat!".

If Kim gets her way she may even end up visiting the Bridgerton set and meeting the Featherington sisters in real life. She added: "Can I please come to a fitting?!?! It would make my whole life!!!!!! I love you Lady W!!!"

We would love to see this happen. With the highly anticipated second season currently filming in the UK, should we expect a KKW cameo? *fingers crossed*

Even the official Netflix Twitter account chipped in, adding: "Kim Featherington does have a nice ring to it -- I'll see what I can do!"

Earlier this month Netflix confirmed that Bridgerton had been renewed for seasons three and four.

Petition for Kim to make a cameo...?!
