Before S4, everything to remember from 'Emily in Paris' S3
What's the story
The third season of Netflix's Emily in Paris left viewers with a series of cliffhangers, including a surprise pregnancy announcement and the revelation of a secret past. The show, which follows the life of an American marketing executive living in Paris, is set to return for its fourth season (Part 1) on Thursday—with Part 2 scheduled for September 12. Before diving into the new episodes, let's recall the key events from Season 3 that will shape the upcoming season.
Career
Emily's career dilemma and return to marketing
S3 began with Emily Cooper (Lily Collins) facing a career dilemma. She had to choose between staying at Savoir with Madeline (Kate Walsh) or joining Sylvie (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu) at her new agency. After a series of events, Emily found herself unemployed. Her brief stint as a waitress at Gabriel's (Lucas Bravo) restaurant ended abruptly when she caused a severe allergic reaction in a customer. Eventually, Emily returned to her true passion—marketing—and began working her way back into Sylvie's good graces.
Romance
Her complicated love life takes a shocking turn
In Season 3, Emily was involved in a complex love square with Alfie (Lucien Laviscount), Gabriel, and Camille (Camille Razat). The season finale saw a shocking twist when Camille called off her wedding to Gabriel, revealing that she was pregnant. This revelation explained their rush to get married. However, Camille also confessed that she believed Emily and Gabriel were perfect for each other and still in love. This revelation caused a rift between Emily and Alfie, leading to their breakup.
Secrets
Sylvie's secret past and forbidden affair
In addition to her professional challenges, Sylvie also had a tumultuous personal life in S03. She was involved in a secret affair with her husband Laurent (Arnaud Binard)—which was reignited when they started working together for her new agency. Sylvie also had a mysterious past with Louis de Leon (Pierre Deny)—the head of the JVMA empire—which was hinted at during their confrontation over JVMA's plan to replace Pierre Cadault (Jean-Christophe Bouvet) with his fashion nemesis, Gregory Dupree (Jeremy O. Harris).
Music
Mindy's band prepares for Eurovision
Emily's best friend Mindy (Ashley Park) also faced her share of drama in Season 3. After breaking up with her bandmate Benoit (Kevin Dias), Mindy started dating Nicolas de Leon (Paul Forman), the head of the JVMA empire. However, their relationship was strained due to Nicolas's rivalry with Emily and his refusal to attend her events. Despite these challenges, Mindy's band received exciting news—they had been selected to represent France at Eurovision.
