Bridget Jones is on a perpetual journey for love. In her latest movie, it looks like she may have taken an unexpected detour.

After lusting for Hugh Grant and Colin Firth in her first flick, Renee Zellweger's character is checking out the other side in the sequel Bridget Jones: Edge Of Reason.

Reports from the set reveal that Bridget has a lesbian fling in the upcoming installment. Renee has been stealing kisses with young actress Jacinda Barrett. Jacinda is an Australian actress best known for her turn on MTV reality show Real World in London.

No word on the outcome of the risque relationship, but with Hugh and Colin reprising their roles in the new film, it looks like Jacinda will have plenty of competition.
