What is Emily in Paris Season 5 about?

Thanks to our leading lady, Lily Collins, we know a little bit about what will go down in the upcoming season.

Giving the inside scoop to Tudum, Lily gave us a few hints about the next chapter in Emily’s tumultuous love life following the introduction of her new beau Marcello, played by Eugenio Franceschini.

“Marcello is a whole other adventure that we want for Emily because we ultimately want Emily to have a better work/life balance. We want to have Emily be able to smile without condition. We want to see her beyond her vacay mode, and he comes at that perfect time.”

“I feel like they have a real spark and a really connect and a real romantic connection. A lot of that’s going to continue to play out next season,” she continued.

Does that give us much? Not really, but with another dynamic making its way into Emily’s list of fan-favourite romances, we’re bound to be in for some major drama.

In exciting news for fans, it has also been confirmed that Lucas Bravo will be returning as one point of Emily’s love triangle, Gabriel.

Despite making it *very* clear that he was not a fan of the show’s creative direction, telling IndieWire that he “really grew apart from [Gabriel] as the seasons progressed, the fan-favourite will be back for the latest instalment.

Sharing the news to her Instagram in April 2025, Camille wrote, “After an incredible journey, I’ve made the decision to step away from Emily in Paris. It has been a truly wonderful experience, one filled with growth, creativity, and unforgettable memories.”

“This character has meant a lot to me, and I feel that her storyline has naturally come to an end. It felt like the right moment to explore new horizons,” she continued, adding, “I leave the show with nothing but love and admiration for the cast, crew, and fans who have supported us along the way. Thank you for the beautiful ride 💕.”

When is Season 5 of Emily in Paris coming out?

We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the release date for Emily in Paris Season 5 has yet to be confirmed.

Given that the previous two seasons of the Parisian drama dropped in the latter half of the year, we can anticipate that the series could potentially make its return to our screens in late 2025 or early 2026.

In May 2025, a picture of Lily Collins posted to the show’s official Instagram account confirmed that the season was now in production, but we’re yet to hear any specific dates.

As we count down the days until we can say “Buongiorno, Emily” again, we’ll be sure to keep you posted on any updates!
