Emily in Paris

Emily and Alfie are together, then break up, then are together. Madeline and Sylvie attempt to out-business each other. Mindy turns down a job.

In my notes I write, “The second-hand embarrassment here is so powerful I may die 100 times before this episode is over.” Alfie also seems to hate it at first (“What do I have to do to get you to stop singing?”) but, for some reason, her musical persistence charms him thoroughly and erases all of the other material issues behind their breakup so they kiss and I guess are back together again. Luc tells Sylvie to stick with her guns and try to build her own thing. Sylvie has learned from her mistakes and she meets with her deputies to discuss it. Unlike Emily, Sylvie is capable of processing new information and learning from her mistakes, so this time she takes her job offer back to her deputies to deliberate. Sylvie is relieved and they all hug and dance together. Madeline, seemingly forgetting everything she has learned over the past several hours — that clients want Sylvie and her relationships; that she cannot run Savoir without Sylvie; that humbling herself is the only wise move here — is all too delighted to have the upper hand, and tells Sylvie that her offer just expired. Camille and Emily have this conversation that, sigh, is all about how they want to trust each other and be friends. As she leaves the meeting with Madeline, Emily realizes, all of a sudden, that Alfie is not her boyfriend anymore. Is it interesting and plot-generating for Sylvie and the gang to have signed contracts with strict noncompete clauses in them? She reports to Camille and Gabriel that Alfie has been in Paris this whole time and of course they both already knew! It is actually hilarious to me that he boarded a train to London, got a call from Antoine, came back to Paris, and kept it a secret from Emily. Mindy turned down the jazz-club job so she could continue to barely scrape by busking with her boyfriend and her new bandmate even though she has only been in this band for approximately a month, and she’s cut off from the Zipper King money, and presumably needs an income to keep her in over-the-knee boots and sequins.

Season three provides more career choices, designer dilemmas and romantic revelations for the fashionable female lead character. Although Lucas Bravo — who ...

“To mispronounce it over and over and over again, it’s like ... So there’s always a part of us in every character.” “It’s a little bit difficult to pretend like you don’t know how to say something,” Collins explains. It was a real rollercoaster to shoot. And it’s a big soup of chaos and drama.” “But it was a real ride.

'Emily in Paris' returns for Season 3 on Netflix, and we're recapping all of the drama between Savoir and Sylvie, Alfie and Gabriel and Emily and Mindy.

As Madeline is loaded into an ambulance, Emily offers to accompany her to the hospital, but she refuses. Left with Sylvie, Emily tries to explain herself, but she’s cut off when Sylvie, with a flick of her cig, fires her yet again. We’ll have to wait to see her decision though, because she stalls and asks for more time as her bandmates walk into the party. After ending her call with Doug and strolling into the new office in Sylvie’s apartment, Emily pitches the McBaguette to the team. It’s all good news and he says he loved her, but there’s a catch: the venue only wants Mindy to perform regularly, not her bandmates, spelling trouble for Mindy after her already-rocky relationship with Benoît, who finally found out about her past as a Chinese pop star. Of course stumbles across Madeline there, and manages to royally screw up his entire visit when he gets into a ridiculous back-and-forth with her about who Emily is working for. When we return for the latest season, Emily is literally trapped between Sylvie and Madeline in a tense opening on the Eiffel Tower, where her two bosses corner her and pressure her for answers. When Emily says she’s working out the conflict, Camille is understanding, saying her family will stick with whatever firm Emily is working at, and adding, “I’m loyal to you.” Camille, you just proved that is not true! As she steels herself to tell her boss she’s quitting, Madeline pops out from behind the door, brandishing a bag of “black market Fritos” and wearing a truly outrageous orange-and-pink getup. While Emily was left with Madeline in the empty offices, Sylvie soon revealed she wanted Emily to join her new team. As the two women close in on her, Emily steps back one inch too far and goes tumbling from the tower…only to wake up in her own bed. The finale concluded with Emily calling up Sylvie and telling her that she’d made her choice, but in the Season 3 premiere, we see that decision isn’t exactly a neat, or easy, one.

"Emily in Paris" season three was filmed at various locations in France, including the Eiffel Tower, Musée des Arts Décoratifs, and Hôtel Molitor Paris.

The cast also talked about berets and big life choices at a screening and reception at the French Consulate General to celebrate Season 3.

“I think I would,” he added, “But I like my hair too much.” “I live in America, and I came here because I wanted to be an actor, but also because I respect the professionalism,” he said. “Emily is in Paris for the moment,” said Mr. “Emily going into the office that early was definitely funny,” said Camille Razat, who plays Camille, a Parisian socialite and a rival for Gabriel’s affections. “But I got a perm, and it was way too much, so I had to wear my hair in this topknot that I called ‘the pineapple' for a year!” said Ms. “I think there’s more story to tell.” “I never wear them,” Mr. “We work to live, not live to work,” she said. “I had a life change haircut when I was, I think, 26,” Ms. “I cut all my hair off — it was a pixie haircut — and I went to the Vanity Fair Oscars party and people were like, ‘What happened?’” “There’s too much romance in Paris,” he added.

'Emily in Paris' season three focuses on Sylvie's new company and life: actor Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu explains her character's evolution.

Season one, they were like, “Oh, no, no, we’re not like that.” And now they’re super happy about the show. They were like, “Oh my God, this is not real. And the fact that people think that I’m like a Parisian woman now makes me feel even more Parisian. You’re much too old for the part, they’re looking for somebody who’s 35, 40 years old, but you should read the sides of Sylvie if you want to read for it.” And when I read the scenes they sent me, I just went, “Of course. And I think it’s a life lesson. Actually, last year, he said, “Do you know why I hired you?” And he said, “Because I liked your vulnerability.” But she’s a very strong character. I like her vulnerability. L.-B.: Oh, I like her sassiness. P. We’re going to see her life. We’re going to see her vulnerability. Here, she previews the season ahead and explains how French perception of the show is finally improving.

“You come to Paris, you walk into my office and you don't even bother to learn the language,” Sylvie, played by Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, says to Emily. “You ...

She does something in Season 3 that really could mean the end of her career towards the end of the season, but she does it with such confidence. “She sees how bold and smart she is and she recognizes that as something that she probably was when she was younger, in her own time, with different tools. Familiar with crafting complicated female characters through series like “Beverly Hills, 90210,” “Melrose Place” and “Younger,” Star is quick to say Sylvie is not a villain, but rather a role model: “In terms of how she sees life and her point of view,” he says. She was a girl that was basically living bare feet on the beach and then she has to go to Paris and become Sylvie Grateau. “She’s so multifaceted and she expresses all these different sides of her with a lot of freedom,” Leroy-Beaulieu says. And that not-normal [life] was also a lot of fun because it taught me a lot about a certain freedom.” “It is really fascinating to watch her process in wanting to make, technically, the villain of the show, still empathetic, grounded, relatable, soft at times. Leroy-Beaulieu made her acting debut in Roger Vadim’s film “Surprise Party” in 1983 and a few years later earned a César nomination for most promising actress with her role as a single mother in the comedy “Trois Hommes et un Couffin,” a runaway hit in France that would eventually be remade in America as “Three Men and a Baby.” The majority of her career has been in France, where she has performed in a string of films and TV shows, but she was virtually unknown in the U.S. “I wanted the character to have this sense of mystery about her. She even had a small role earlier this year in Netflix’s Emmy winner “The Crown,” playing Monique Ritz, widow of hotelier Charles Ritz. When the conversation turns to her own culture shock visiting the U.S., she says she found the loneliness of L.A. She was in that position herself when she auditioned for the role, originally written to be between 35 and 40 years old.

An interview with 'Emily in Paris' actor Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu about the show's third and wildest season, discussing her character Sylvie's chicness, ...

I have to be moved in a very deep way — it has to touch my heart and my guts. I love that artist, but I also love that documentary. Artists try to give birth to something that is universal, that can be received by everyone — not everyone in a cheap way, everyone because it touches something really, really deep. I remember somebody leaked the fact that I was going to be in a swimsuit in season two, and rightfully so — at my age, you kind of need to tell the actor. It’s a love and hate relationship, I guess. But she needs that in order to restore her sense of confidence. You don’t need to know.” It’s kind of fun, now that I think about it. He takes you out of that comfort zone and throws you in the pool and you just swim through it. And it was kind of cute, because I was telling him, like, “Darren, I mean, look at me. When you’re thrown in the pool and you have to swim, you just do it. It’s because she saw that Emily was strong that she was also very scared of her. I mean, I wasn’t really interested when I was a kid.

Leroy-Beaulieu reveals the secret to Sylvie's bad temper and what the French really think about the show. By Mary Elizabeth Williams. Senior Writer ...

I was in comedies because I needed to go back to my Italian roots, in a way. She was a beach girl living in the south of France and she had to go to Paris and become Sylvie Grateau, which is a totally different character. There's that line, "Your enemy is your master," and I look at life like that. I was raised in Rome, and the Italians have a huge sense of humor. There were moments that were really difficult and I thought, "I'm just going to go into the country and just start planting whatever, eggplant, and just do nothing else." But it's also a responsibility in a way because of my age and my experience. There's a word in French called râler that means we kind of complain all the time — the French don't see that anymore. So I read the part and when I read the scenes that they gave me, I thought, "I know this person so well. That was really present at the beginning of the show. Then there was a callback, and I was super surprised. I read and then I didn't hear about them for a month and a half. What drew you to this darker kind of a character?

Netflix's hit rom-com series featuring the misadventures of Lily Collins as Emily Cooper has been renewed for a fourth season. Here's everything to know ...

"I don't know that Gabriel is in the best place to start a relationship with Emily," Star elaborated. "I don't have one strong idea at the moment of who she is going to be with." All the usuals will most likely be back for Season 4. [Ashley Park](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/ashley-park/3000308803/)) and her ex-boyfriend have been accepted into the Eurovision song competition, so we can probably count on that as a storyline too. In the meantime, here's everything we know about what's next for Emily in Paris Season 4. Basing our predictions on the events that transpired in Season 3, Emily and Gabriel will once again be single, meaning we could potentially see Netflix having the two star-crossed lovers getting back together in a typical rom-com trope move. "Emily is still going to be working with Alfie, Gabriel, and Camille. Meanwhile, Gabriel and Camille will have to navigate this new concept of having a baby without being in a relationship. After Savoir's parent company pulls the plug on operations in France, Emily's boss Madeline ( [Kate Walsh](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/kate-walsh/3000385385/)) goes home to Chicago while Emily chooses to stay in Paris, ultimately getting her job back at Sylvie's ( [Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/philippine-leroy-beaulieu/3000423698/)) new firm. Once again, Netflix has us wrapped around its little finger with the latest bingeworthy season of Emily in Paris. That's a lot to digest, but we'll have plenty of time to let it all soak in before another season returns. On the relationship front, things were going great for Emily and her boyfriend Alfie ( [Lucien Laviscount](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/lucien-laviscount/3000093687/)), while there was some trouble in paradise between Gabriel ( [Lucas Bravo](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/lucas-bravo/3030878996/)) and Camille ( [Camille Razat](https://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/camille-razat/3000271742/)) (the latter is having a secret affair!).

From Emily's red lip ratio to Sylvie's imperceptible faux lashes, the show's head of makeup shares her Parisian beauty secrets.

“Emily knows what she wants, and she has to make choices in her profession and her personal life, so she’s wearing bold lips,” says Payen. “It’s really a balance,” says Payen of mixing up her Parisian instincts and keeping a finger on the pulse of new products, like Face Lace decals and high-wattage eye paints. Take Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu’s breakout character, Sylvie (Emily’s boss-but-not-boss who viewers dream of starring in a spinoff), for example.

Emily loses her job at Gabriel's restaurant but finds employment with Sylvie. Camille's parents hate Emily, which makes sense. A recap and review of season ...

Emily swears to Sylvie that the pet-filter and the canned-cocktail pitches had no ulterior motive and she was only trying to help. At the gallery that night, Camille’s mom reports to her daughter that she ought to be VERY worried about how close Emily and Gabriel are in that restaurant. So she humbles herself and deigns to check Emily’s Instagram so she can track her down. There is a very heated discussion over calling 911, and it is not at all shocking to learn that Emily doesn’t know the 911-equivalent number of the country where she has been living for almost a year. But this lunch is interrupted by a table beside them ordering the Kir Royale, and Sylvie thinks the universe is giving her a sign. Camille’s mom spots Sylvie and reports that Emily is working at Gabriel’s restaurant. Anyway, Emily has a list of things to do while she focuses on LIFE, and they include “have sex in the middle of the day” (Has she not done that yet? Camille is dressing like an American girl’s idea of a parody of a French person (beret wrapped in a netted veil and also, suspenders??) to give a hot artist, Sofia, a tour of her gallery space. She ought to hire a business manager so she can focus her energies on creative! Unfortunately, Sylvie is stuck dealing with administrative bullshit instead of sleeping soundly next to her beautiful boyfriend, and to get herself out of this red tape, she texts Laurent, her hot “ex” husband. Over at Savoir, Sylvie has inherited the pet-food account, brought to her by Julien and Luc, and is using Emily’s pet filter (though she does not know its origin). Later, Camille is wearing an enormous neon-green suit jacket to discover that Emily quit her job three days prior.

'Emily in Paris' Season 3 Episode 3 recap: Emily and Madeline run into some issues at Savoir as Sylvie plots to get her old office space back.

She turns to Madeline and tells her that no, she’s not going back to Chicago, and she’s staying in Paris. The dissolution of Savoir seems to barely phase Emily, who seems way too chill for someone who is newly unemployed in a foreign city. Emily and Madeline arrive to a building where the elevator is still broken, but to make matters worse, the heat is also on in the middle of summer, the windows are sealed shut and Henri won’t answer Emily’s calls. That night, Alfie is hanging out with Gabriel at his restaurant, and the show attempts to explain Hot Chef’s notably smaller role this season when he says he’s so busy with work that he doesn’t have as much time with Camille. Emily does not take the news well, visibly wilting a bit before she turns to look out of Madeline’s window and onto the city below, which gives her a quick perk up. But, as much as Emily wants to shrug off her work duties for the day, Alfie surprisingly says they need to get up and get out, and off to the office she goes. Madeline tests it out, charmed as she transforms herself into a cat on screen, but her delight quickly fizzles when a pigeon finds its way into the office, bringing with it some Three Stooges-level antics. Out on the streets of Paris, Emily has apparently given up on fixing the elevator after calling Luc, and is instead dedicating her time to taking pictures of random dogs on the street for a new client (this seems unethical or misleading, but okay). she’s serving up at dinner and promises to treat Emily and Madeline “like pests” to force them out and get Sylvie back in. Henri is rightfully a bit skeptical, asking why Sylvie never spoke to him when they worked in the same building, but she tells him, “I was very intimidated by you.” Sylvie, intimidated? Elsewhere in Paris, Sylvie is plotting away at a dinner with Luc and Henri, her former building manager. But, this being Sylvie, she has a quick fix: force Emily and Madeline out, and regain control of the old Savoir space.

Netflix's "Emily in Paris" is coming back for a fourth season! Here's what we know so far.

Netflix still hasn't confirmed when Emily in Paris season 4 comes out, but you already know we'll be on the lookout for more details. Right after the season two finale in January 2022, Netflix posted a photo of Lily Collins with an announcement that two more seasons of Emily in Paris are hitting the streamer. Here's everything we know about Emily in Paris season four so far.

'Emily in Paris' Season 3 Episode 4 recap: Emily enjoys her time in Paris without having to worry about work, but immediately finds a new job.

Emily, of course, accepts, but has to cross one final thing off her bucket list: ferris wheel sex with Alfie, who I’m beginning to suspect serves the sole purpose of wearing a sharp suit and talking about work, because that’s all he’s been doing this season. We never see what happens to the unlucky diner), she’s let go from Gabriel’s restaurant, but not before he delivers a speech about how she’s “making life into work” and needs to “take the time to live.” After admitting she made up a lie to get Sofia away from the clingy gallery patron, Sofia thanks her and says the guy wasn’t her type. Camille is calm and collected though, and brushes off her mom’s words as she moves over to “rescue” Sofia, who is being cornered by an older man. After their meeting, Camille leaves the agency with her parents, and she FINALLY admits that she did something wrong by breaking her pact with Emily and reconciling with Gabriel. Still, she somehow pulls it off and manages to charm everyone so much that even one of her tables wants to take a selfie with her.

Lily Collins and her "Emily in Paris" character aren't the only ones who've used hairstyling as catharsis. Here's what other stars have said.

"I've talked a lot about my past, being in recovery from an eating disorder, and I used to use my hair to hide behind. "What is the use of having hair if you're not going to (expletive) wear it out? “I've never felt so (expletive) happy, like ...

Emily attempts to get Sylvie's agency (and herself) in a high-profile column called “La Liste.” Sparks fly between and Mindy and Nicolas. A recap and review ...

Mindy gets a delivery of flowers before her show, but they are not from Benoit, who is performing with her tonight (“You’re WELCOME, Benoit” — a thing Mindy could’ve said but did not). So Emily is summoned to Sylvie’s office for a confab about this insubordination-slash-failure. But for now, let’s watch Emily make everything about work, again: The sunscreen is called Le Soleil, and Emily thinks the song Benoit wrote for Mindy, “Mon Soleil” (for which there is somehow already a remix?), would be perfect for a commercial. Emily reports the makeout to Mindy by calling it an “affair,” and Mindy, correctly, says, “An affair? Though Sylvie is worried that Emily’s Outback Steakhouse anecdotes will derail lunch, I fear that Emily will accidentally get herself on the list and alienate Sylvie in the process, and (spoiler) I am right. Is she — gasp — good at her job today??) Given that Janine and her list are so important, I’m surprised so little basic intel about her has made its way to the formerly-known-as-Savoir offices, but everyone is shocked to discover that Janine isn’t French. I don’t see a pool, but there’s this weird mix of outfits and I can’t tell if Emily’s is part swimsuit beneath its layers of fringe. The JVMA party is a sunblock launch for which Nicolas secured Mindy and Emily some VIP lounge chairs. Alfie got a new place, and Emily is forcing him to throw a housewarming. As some of you surely know from efforts to score a work visa yourselves, Sylvie must make the case that Emily is better at her job than any French person would be. If you’re not gonna be protagonist material, get out of the way and let this show be about someone I can actually get behind! First of all, Emily is literally wearing a bra instead of a shirt …

Emily in Paris boss Darren Star reveals what Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) and Camille's (Camille Razat) pregnancy bombshell means for Emily's (Lily Collins) ...

Star: Nicolas is a very smart character, but I think he is also a tricky guy. How is she feeling going into Season 4 and about that relationship? I don't know that Gabriel is in the best place to start a relationship with Emily. Gabriel says that his dreams of becoming a father started flourishing after the visit to the Michelin star restaurant. I am not sure that Emily wants a relationship with Gabriel under the circumstances, so we'll have to see how things happen with them. It really inspired him to make more of a commitment to their relationship and to the life that the wants. I think he represents a little bit of the Mindy who used to be, who she is very comfortable with. It's a bit explosive at the wedding and I am not sure how quick he's going to recover from this. From the time he took over his own restaurant, to making a choice to be with Camille, I think he's also closing down more romantic fantasies. It's a little complicated for Emily to jump into that with Gabriel so quickly. Things became more explosive when that engagement turned into a surprise wedding, which Camille shut down at the altar when she confessed to sabotaging Emily and Gabriel getting back together instead of saying her vows. He broke up with Emily on the spot and stormed out of the church, yet that wasn't even the most dramatic part of the episode.

In an exclusive interview with E! News, Emily in Paris star Lucien Laviscount revealed what he hopes is in store for Alfie in season four, especially after ...

SPOILER ALERT: The story includes details about Season 3 of Netflix's Emily In Paris Do not read before you have binged all 10 episodes.

And I think Emily, her feet are on the ground a little bit more, so I think she’s dealing with a somewhat ordinary issue — the way we’d play with it in our Emily in Paris fashion — but I felt like we couldn’t ignore it completely. STAR: I think we wanted to touch on the realities a little bit more, I feel like this season the show has become a little more grounded. There’s a stigma, and it didn’t help the way she was portrayed, with the shoplifting and the other stuff. STAR: In terms of everyone that’s working for Sylvie, they’re all talented people, and I think Emily comes in with this sense of drive and ambition that maybe they never felt they needed to express in quite that way. I think that Julien, throughout the season, has been very vocal in terms of felling that he’s been treated unfairly there, If you look at it, Emily is a strong character who came into this mix with strong ideas, and I think Julien, who was sort of Emily’s biggest ally at the beginning, now felt a little sidelined. I think we’d like to look at it maybe in a more straightforward way. And I think that will come to a head a bit more this season just because we’re going to see them spending more time together. I don’t know that that is a relationship that’s over, and I think that there was a romantic spark between the two of them that I feel like we’ve never seen between Camille and Gabriel. I think Season 4 is about how to balance business and toxic relationships, because that’s going to be happening with a lot of our characters. I don’t think that makes Alfie out of the show. They’re finally open about their feelings — they have to thank Camille for that — but now it’s a very new stage in their relationship with Gabriel’s baby on the way that will always tie him to Camille, so it’s a very unusual triangle. She had crossed the line so many times in the past and and now finally she got the prize, a chance to marry Gabriel.

Agence Grateau hosts an event at Antoine's chateau. Emily goes to a fancy (romantic?) dinner with Gabriel. Sylvie and Laurent hook up. A recap and review of ...

It’s all very dreamy and intimate and “let’s wander in the lavender fields” until they are rudely attacked by a swarm of bees. I feel like no one else on this show remembers that at all but it would be nice to acknowledge their slightly salacious history here so I am not left feeling like the entire first season of this series was something I hallucinated alone. They strip off their clothes (full of bees) and plunge into the pool (no bees). Antoine has a crisis: The new batch of perfume is off-balance and only a small amount smells the way it’s supposed to. (I tease, but actually, I will accept this contrivance because part of what makes this episode work so well is we have good-enough reasons for so many key players to be together that deepen the main goings-on, which is a terrific change of pace from our aimless detours down “Mindy has a song in her heart” lane.) But alas, Erik sees Laurent show up and demands to know what he’s doing here — and he wants to know why Sylvie is still married. This is actually the same thing Sylvie has been explaining to Emily since the dawn of this series. Of course, the last-minute culinary needs will be met by Gabriel, who is not too busy running a restaurant to come up with a menu for this fleet of VIPs. I hate to criticize my hero, but that was pretty shitty of her, hot on the heels of neglecting to tell Erik that Laurent would be staying at her apartment. Most of his maneuverings have been offscreen and his history with Sylvie seemed to be a distant memory. Camille pretends to be jealous that everyone is going to Provence without her while she is busy shtupping Sofia the hot artist behind Gabriel’s back. Off to the chateau, which happens to be close to a Michelin-starred restaurant that Gabriel has dreamed of trying so we know something will transpire forcing Gabriel and Emily to go together as if they are on a date.

Is 'Emily in Paris' Season 4 Happening?

Emily in Paris creator Darren Star sheds light on that shocking and sad season 3 ending, detailing what's next for the characters in season 4.

I think there’s a lot that Gabriel found out about very quickly about the nature of this pact that she made with Camille, and this idea of feeling manipulated by these two women may not sit well with him. It'll depend, likely, on if the show continues to perform well for Netflix in the coming weeks and months. I think Alfie is already very much embedded in the lives of these characters and work and everything like that. And I don’t think it means Alfie is out of the picture. Consisting of ten episodes, the third installment of the Netflix dramedy concluded with a big change of heart that fundamentally alters things for Camille, Emily, and Gabriel. In an interview with [EW](https://ew.com/tv/emily-in-paris-showrunner-season-3-finale-alfie/), Star discusses the eventful ending and what it means for the four characters who seem to be involved in quite a tricky situation:

Melia Kreiling knows how to make an entrance, be it on Zoom or in Emily in Paris. In the latter, she plays Sofia Sideris, a gorgeous Greek artist who comes ...

I'm there for an art opening.” And so I just reply, “Done.” It was really a fun, serendipitous kind of thing. Melia Kreiling: It was a little bit like cosmic magic because I was in Athens…and there was a huge art exhibition on this little island of Hydra. “It was like the opening of a new theme park. There was one fashion catwalk and then there was another red carpet inside with a different backdrop. As for our Zoom, Kreiling has just flown to Greece from France, and before that, Los Angeles, where she was packing up her life as she prepares to move with her rescue dog, Uzo, to New York in the New Tear. Only problem is (spoiler alert if you're not caught up), Camille's in a relationship (and engaged!) to Gabriel, and they're expecting a baby.

What happens at the end of Season 3 of Emily in Paris? Read on for a comprehensive recap of the finale including Gabriel and Camille's secret pregnancy.

She also admits to Gabriel that she made a pact with Emily to keep them apart and ensure she would not lose him. Still, she appears to be committed to Alfie and sits beside him in the chapel as they wait for Camille and Gabriel to say, “I do.” Emily seems to be all in on her relationship with Alfie for most of the season. Gabriel reveals the real reason Camille cut her trip to Greece short: She is pregnant. Outside, Emily and Gabriel have a conversation where he asked about her feelings for him. Alfie, and the rest of the guests, are stunned by the information. Emily and Sylvie outsmart Nico in order to keep Pierro in chart, embarrassing Nico in front of his father. In the finale, Emily finally chooses between Alfie and Gabriel and also mends her relationship with Mindy after some slight tension in their friendship. Alfie and Emily travel together to the French countryside for Camille and Gabriel’s engagement party. Gabriel opens up about his relationship problems with the gallerist and confesses that some of them stem from his being in love with Emily. Camille ends her trip to Greece early to have a conversation with Gabriel. Throughout the season, Emily and Alfie’s relationship appears to grow stronger.

Is the McDonald's McBaguette in 'Emily in Paris' Season 3 real? Here's everything we know about the special menu item and a review from Samuel Arnold.

[French McDonald’s restaurants first launched the McBaguette in 2012](https://www.nbcnews.com/business/markets/mcdonalds-goes-gallic-mcbaguette-burger-flna192677), but the international menu item was only available for a limited time. (In the past, the sandwich was also available with chicken tenders instead of beef patties.) And they made it for the show as well, so that was a nice day of shooting,” Arnold laughed. He got a new job as Associate Manager of Global Partnerships for McDonald’s and suggested she run the marketing for the launch of the McBaguette. Professional chef Gabriel admitted he loves treating himself to McDonald’s every once in a while, and honestly? For those wondering “Is the McBaguette real?” The answer is yes!

The show's lead makeup artist shares all the details behind the makeup looks in Emily In Paris season 3, including Lily Collins' lipstick shades.

“With a mist, you can apply your eyeliner pencil, then mist the face and redo the foundation, the blush, and then re-apply any powders,” she says. “At the end of the season, I played more with the eyes because I want to open to something different for season 4,” Payen says. “And we were always on the same page because we always chose the same colors.” So Payen says she focused a lot on skin prep when doing the cast’s makeup on set so they all had a great foundation for a natural base. And Emily isn’t the only character that’s gotten into eye makeup in season 3. The makeup artist shares that she relied on a kohl eyeliner pencil by “I would choose the color and then I would give one or two choices to Lily to see if she will pick the same colors that I already chose,” Payen shares. While Emily does wear other bright lipstick colors — like strawberry and orange — throughout the season, they’re also reflective of the time of day and her mood. The Parisian makeup artist looked to her observations of when and how French women wear strong lip colors for inspiration. “That’s why I chose to have Emily wear a vibrant red lipstick during the day instead of at night. And thus, her makeup in season 3 starts to reflect her personal evolution (and her new look). “I noticed that French women always wore bold red lips during the day while at work, so I wanted to inject this French perspective into the character,” Payen reveals.

"Emily in Paris" season 3 creator Darren Star reveals everything about that shocking finale with Camille, Gabriel, and Emily.

But what's bad/complicated for Camille, Gabriel, Emily, and Alfie is good for viewers, as the latest twist certainly infuses the series with plenty of interesting avenues to explore in seasons four and beyond. Then, in the most shocking development, Gabriel told Emily that the reason he wanted to rush a wedding between him and Camille was because she's pregnant. (Cut to Alfie and Emily's shocked faces.) Not only did this seem to mark the end of Alfie and Emily as a couple, but Gabriel still doesn't know that Camille has been having an affair with gallery curator Sofia.

Aperol Spritz, out! I also suspect this ugly beret will be everywhere. And bring your Lysol wipes if you're going to ride the Grande Roue #EmilyInParis3.".

One Emily in Paris fan joked the Kir Royale was the new Aperol Spritz, writing on Twitter: "Watch how Paris is going to be full of tourists drinking Kir Royale next summer. With Creme de Cassis in it." to which D'Arcy replied "A Negroni." The Kir Royale has been popular in France since the 1840s, following the development of Créme de Cassis. And bring your Lysol wipes if you're going to ride the Grande Roue #EmilyInParis3." "

Emily In Paris has introduced fans to many French locations, customs and dishes with season 3 featuring the delicious drink, the Kir Royale.

As ever in the world of cocktails, there are plenty of ways to change up a Kir Royale to suit your tastes. Later in the episode, Emily uses the drink in a pitch to Camille’s vineyard-owning parents, suggesting the possibility of a new line of canned cocktails. One of the latest to be introduced in season 3 of Emily In Paris is the drink, Kir Royale, but what is the popular apéritif and how is one made?

Emily in Paris” Season 4 is fast approaching — here's everything we know so far about the fourth season, including cast, release date, trailer, and more.

Regardless, according to [Deadline](https://deadline.com/2022/01/emily-in-paris-renewed-seasons-3-4-netflix-1234907254/), the show's second season was watched for 107.6 million hours within its first week on Netflix, and was the streaming giant's most popular comedy series of 2020. Your favorite stylish expat Emily Cooper, played by [Lily Collins](https://www.teenvogue.com/story/emily-in-paris-star-lily-collins-says-emily-may-seem-annoying-nylon), will return to Netflix for the fourth chapter of her adventure sooner than you think.

One thing is for sure—audiences are loving the connection between Camille (Camille Razat) and Sofia and want to know more about Kreiling. Newsweek has ...

But I think Sofia is in this really fun position where we leave her, where she doesn't have anything weighing her down and can pursue Camille—as long as Camille of course is open to it. In my own dating life, it's not that easy to be like, 'Hey, I want you, and I'm going to try and make this happen.' So I really like that about Sofia and I hope that she acts on that a little bit and tries to show Camille that she's really special in her eyes, that she is beautiful." After spending the week together, Sofia lets Camille know her true feelings and at the end of Episode 4, the pair finally shared a kiss. It's not that easy to be that confident anymore with people. [ Season 4](https://www.newsweek.com/emily-paris-season-4-happening-will-there-new-release-date-netflix-1768970), Kreiling has not given too much away. Following graduation, Kreiling moved to the U.K.

The season 3 premiere of "Emily in Paris" introduces the McBaguette from McDonald's. The snack is real and can be purchased at McDonald's in France.

It was introduced at 1,228 restaurants, and since then, has reappeared on the menu once a year for short spans of time. Turns out, the savory snack is real and can be purchased at McDonald’s throughout France. Emily Cooper’s ex, Doug, calls from Chicago and announces that he’s been named the Associate Manager of Global Partnerships for McDonald’s.

Netflix series "Emily in Paris" Season 4 is about Emily making a choice between her heart and mind in both her romantic and professional life.

He refused to be her second choice and asked her to be with the man she loved. She admitted that she had always been in love with him, and he disclosed that he felt the same way. Season 4 of “Emily in Paris” has a lot to answer and, of course, unite the lovers that the audience has been longing to see. She, too, wondered why she chose to remain married even though they were mostly living their separate lives, but eventually, it became evident that the two had always been in love. She enjoyed the comfort and consistency that Alfie brought to their relationship, and she wanted to maintain it. She fell in love with the food and confirmed that if the restaurant continued to maintain the same quality, it would surely be awarded a Michelin star. She had finally struck a balance between work and life, and she could not risk it for anything unstable. It was not easy for Emily to get over the fact that Alfie had lied to her all this time, but at the same time, she knew that she, too, did not value his presence as much as she should have. Without giving it a thought, Camille decided to follow her heart, and she went with Sofia to Greece. After Sylvie and the rest of the French employees left Savoir and started their own marketing agency, Emily had to make the most difficult career choice—she could either work for Savoir and climb the ladder, or she could settle in Paris and work for her colleagues turned friends to help them turn their new marketing firm into a success. Even though she knew how problematic the entire situation was, she chose to stay out of it. While Emily adored Alfie, it was not easy for her to ignore her affection for Gabriel.

Darren Star on the third and newest season of Emily in Paris, girlbosses, and attachment theory.

She came to Paris for a job that gave her a sense of purpose; for the episodes where she was out of work, it was like her whole life is up in the air because she made a decision to stay in Paris for a job and that’s also why she [originally] came to the city. I think sort of that controlling aspect of her personality backfires on her quite often. This season, Emily faces the consequences of her avoiding confrontation both at work and in her personal life. Emily is continually, by the fact that she’s living in France, being put in situations where she is forced to find a little work-life balance. But I definitely feel she’s softened in that respect since she arrived in Paris to the end of season three—she’s a different person now. I don’t think she needs to run the world, but she likes to work. And throughout the series, a running storyline is how her American work ethic of living to work instead of working to live is perpetually putting her close relationships in peril. I think she’s doing it because it gives her life a lot of meaning and she can she enjoys it. Plus, she made a decision to make a life in Paris. This season, I also feel we spent more time getting to know the rest of the ensemble. Perhaps the most outsize example of Star’s brand of fantasy has been [Netflix’s Emily in Paris](https://time.com/6129566/lucien-laviscount-alfie-emily-in-paris-season-2/), the effervescent series he created about Emily (Lily Collins), an indefatigable optimistic and career-obsessed American in Paris, whose work and play in the City of Love, are truly the stuff of dreams. From [Carrie Bradshaw’s enviable career (and shoe closet)](https://time.com/5357549/sex-and-the-city-meme/) as a Manhattan sex columnist on Sex and the City to [Liza Miller’s miraculous second act in Younger](https://time.com/3757144/hilary-duff-younger-new-album-interview/), Star’s shows, with their unabashed embrace of wild desires and dreams, have become pop culture canon for their escapism and fun.
