Emily in Paris season 4 spoilers ahead.

The Paris Olympics may be over, but Emily Cooper's games in Paris are still going very strong. Part two of season four of Emily in Paris is here and our favourite American in Paris is back doing what she does best — you know, flirting with hot French chefs, speaking absolutely no French (or Italian) and wearing the wildest colour combos you've literally ever seen.

Naturally, the new season has been pretty dramatic, leaving us all wondering: will we get any more of Emily's antics in Paris — and Rome? Will there be an Emily in Paris season 5?

Here's everything we know.

What happens in season 4 of Emily in Paris?

In the fourth season of Emily in Paris, Emily finds herself struggling to choose between Alfie and the newly single Gabriel. She eventually finds herself in a relationship with Gabriel — but things get a little complicated when Camille, Gabriel's ex who is pregnant with his child, moves into his apartment with her new girlfriend, Sofia. The couple finally find their own place — and it just so happens to be across the hall from Gabriel. As usual, Emily's love life is rather messy. At the end of part 1, Camille breaks up with Sofia and discovers that she's not actually pregnant — but she decides to hide the information from Gabriel and Emily in order to stay close to him.

In the second part of the season, Emily breaks up with Gabriel as he keeps prioritising Camille. After meeting a dashing Italian on the slopes of the French alps, Emily finds herself whisked off to Italy for a Roman holiday. She falls for Marcello and his simple way of life and, before long, she has struck a deal with his family cashmere business. This means Agence Grateau needs a Rome office and Sylvie gives the gig to Emily. As the season ends, Emily is settling into her new life in Rome with the very handsome Marcello, while Gabriel sets off to try to win her back.

Will Emily in Paris season 5 happen?

A fifth season of Emily in Paris has yet to be confirmed by Netflix. But we are still hopeful we'll be getting more — and so is Star.

Speaking to GLAMOUR after the release of season 4 part 2, he said, “We’re waiting for Netflix to let us know about [season 5].”

“Well, let’s see how long they want us for,” he also told The Hollywood Reporter recently. “To me, great characters on a great series are like, I have a hard time letting go and saying goodbye. They always take you places. If you look at Sex and the City [which was created by Star], It’s still happening 25 years later.”

Back in June, there was some drama at an amfAR event at Cannes Film Festival when Winnie Harlow and Paris Jackson announced that a walk-on role was for Emily In Paris season 5 was being auctioned off.

The listing read: “From Sex and the City to Emily in Paris, Darren Star brings dreams to life, and he will bring the film dreams to life for one lucky bidder with a walk-on role during season five of Emily in Paris. As part of the walk-on role, the winning bidder will have the opportunity to spend a day on set in Paris during filming sometime after April 2025. To tide you over until then, the winning bidder and a guest are invited to attend the Los Angeles premiere of Emily in Paris season four this August.”

After it was pointed out that season 5 had yet to be greenlit, the auction listing was amended to clarify that the winning bidder (who paid out €250,000, BTW) would “have the opportunity to spend a day on set in Paris during filming, contingent upon season five pick-up”.

What's more, when Deadline asked showrunner Darren Starr about the possibility of more seasons beyond the fourth, he was very encouraging.

“I definitely think the show has a life beyond next season. There’s no end in sight until everybody feels like it’s time to end.”

Emily in Paris season 5 cast

Who could we expect to see in a potential Emily in Paris season 5?

Well, probably pretty much everyone who starred in season 4.

We'd likely see a return of Lily Collins as Emily, Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu as Sylvie Grateau, Ashley Park as Mindy Chen, Lucas Bravo as Gabriel, Camille Razat as Camille, Eugenio Franceschini as Marcello and Thalia Besson as Geneviève.

Of course, we might be seeing more of some than others based on how things were left at the end of season 4. Now that Emily is officially living in Rome, chances are, we'll see a lot more of Franceschini's Marcello.

However, we might be seeing a little less of Razat as Camille. “I don’t know how much we’ll be seeing Camille in season five,” Star recently told us.

“I think the idea that she thought she was going to have a baby, and then to have dealt with that disappointment, and then to discover there was a way to do it with Gabriel that he didn’t want to pursue — [as a result], she realised this was something that she wanted to do on her own. So I don’t know what’s going to happen with her in season five. I’m not sure how much we’ll see of that story right now. But that’s sort of where she’s heading.”

Star also added that a new character might be joining the cast. “We definitely will want to see Alfie next season,” he said. “And I think there’s still a question mark [about] who he’s dating. We don’t know who this person is yet, so absolutely [we want to meet her].”

Potential Emily in Paris season 5 plot

Who knows what could happen!

But it does seem like, for the time being, Emily is going to be sticking in Rome.

“I think we will definitely see more Emily in Rome if we have a season five,” said Star. “Emily [is now] there. There’s an office, and I think the story is taking us there for the moment. So we will spend more time in Italy, but it doesn’t mean we’re leaving Paris.”

There's a lot to come: Mindy is about to be a judge on Chinese Pop Star, Gabriel is heading to Rome to try to win back Emily, Camille is adopting a baby — Netflix, bring on season five!
