Mad about the Boy, Mark Darcy, the man of Bridget's dreams in the first three movies of the series, is tragically killed. But why?

As is made clear right at the start of the ads for Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, Bridget Jones (played by Renée Zellweger) is widowed in this story, husband and human rights lawyer Darcy having been killed in an explosion during a mission to Sudan.

Mad About the Boy" stars Renée Zellweger and Hugh Grant. Colin Firth also returns as Mark Darcy in a few scenes, with a catch.
