Margaret Hart has served the Bridgerton family for decades and is one of Lady Violet Bridgerton's most trusted maids. With no one else to care for her daughter while she worked, Barbara spent her childhood in Bridgerton House. She grew up alongside the household, helping in the kitchens, assisting the servants, and becoming a familiar face to the Bridgerton family.
I am Barbara Maidel, daughter of Fernand and Deliah Maidel... I grew up without my mother because she died during my birth, my father and mother never quite loved each other, but they had a mutual respect for each other. My father, Fernand, didn't quite know what to do with me growing up half of the time. Luckily for him, he was and still is a great friend with the Bridgerton family, he used to get along with Mr Bridgerton quite well before he passed away a few years back... I pretty much grew up with Daphne Bridgerton, she's only a year older than me and she was always the closest to me, we are very alike, however I am rather more fierce and fiery... I am 19 (almost 20) years old, which is the time for a lady like me to get married, however I have not been able to find anyone I get along with... Well, expect for Anthony Bridgerton.. He watched me grew up, but from a very young age I've always admired him, I've looked up to him, and quite frankly I've always wished I could be with him. He was so charming, like al the Bridgertons, but I'm sure he has never seen me as an option even...
