6. Giving Bridget Her Award Winning Interview

The moment that made Mark Darcy even more of the perfect gentleman was when he gave Bridget the exclusive interview. She screwed up and missed her chance to talk to the clients of Mark. So, she assumed she’d be fired.

Mark happened to be behind her and when he heard, he offered her an exclusive interview. It’s so Mark of him and it ends up getting Bridget a Pulitzer prize (maybe, it’s never clear but she gets a lot of acclaim for it).

Constantly, Mark’s career gets in the way of his relationship with Bridget. But in this instance, it’s one of the reasons she ends up falling for him. When she turns around to find Mark Darcy standing behind her, the first thing she says is “You like me just as I am.”

It’s in this point in the movie that we’re all aware that Mark is a lot sweeter than he’s let on. He makes sure she’s safe and secure and that means even breaking his own rule. He told his clients to not give interviews and then gives an exclusive on to them to Bridget.

It happens a lot throughout the series, where Mark’s job drives them apart but it’s this moment it proves that he would do whatever Bridget needed him to do.
