Emily In Paris Season 4 Just Confirmed My Worst Fears About The Show’s Love Triangle
Emily in Paris season 4’s trailer offers a first look at the next stage of Emily’s life, but some things appear to not have changed at all.
10Alfie Broke Up With Emily At Gabriel & Camille’s Engagement Party
Learning About Emily’s Feelings For Gabriel Is A Deal Breaker For Alfie
Emily and Alfie’s relationship became more stable inEmily in Parisseason 3, with its second half even focusing on Emily’s wish for Alfie to introduce her to his family and Alfie finally agreeing byEmily in Parisseason 3, episode 9’s ending. However,Alfie’s feeling that there was something stopping him from going all-in with Emily was proven right by Camille’s revelationthat Gabriel chose her only because of her and her mother’s scheme to make a pact with Emily not to pursue Gabriel only to do so in secret.
They had just made their relationship public by being part of Ami’s air balloon campaign.
Emily in Parisseason 3’s ending only showed Alfie leaving the chateau in a rush after telling Emily that he was nobody’s second choice and to “go and get her man,” making it imperative for season 4 to explore the end of Emily and Alfie’s relationship. After all, they had just made their relationship public by being part of Ami’s air balloon campaign, andAlfie didn’t let Emily explain her side, making their break up one of the key developmentsEmily in Parisseason 4has to examine.
9Nicolas Put Mindy First But His Family Can Still Be A Problem
Nicolas Chooses Mindy In Emily In Paris Season 3’s Finale
After learning that Nicolas pushed Emily and Alfie away from the party he threw for her last residency performance, Mindy was rightfully angry at Nicolas, especially after she happily went along with all of his and his family’s events but he refused to make peace with Emily.Mindy digging her heels in about going to Gabriel and Camille’s engagement party formed the ultimatum she gave Nicolas, forcing him to choose between her and his family’s trip to Positano,which ultimately proved Nicolas chose Mindy.
Despite choosing Mindy and even apologizing to Emily about effectively kicking her out of the party in Mindy’s honor,Emily in Parisseason 4 can still exacerbate problems between Mindy and Nicolas. Indeed, Nicolas’ attachment to the family business and following in his father’s steps, along with Benoit and Mindy necessarily reconnecting after their song was accepted to the Eurovision Song Contest, can both cause problems for the couple, making the end of their story inEmily in Parisseason 3 important to remember for whatever season 4 has in store for them.
8Sylvie & Laurent Are Finally Happy But His New Venture Can Ruin That
Laurent Is Doing Business With Sylvie’s Enemy, Louis De Léon
Emily in Parisoften featured Sylvie’s romantic life, successfully reuniting her with her husband Laurent in a meaningful way in season 3. After committing to make their relationship work despite their responsibilities to their businesses,Emily in Parisseason 3 finally let the two spontaneously choose each other, leading to romantic strolls by the Seine and anniversary dates at the Opéra.
However, one financier of Laurent’s new private club in Paris could cause problems for Sylvie and Laurent.
Sylvie welcomed Laurent’s surprise news about the private club that could bring him more often to Paris, but she also got reasonably worried when she learned Louis de Léon was one of Laurent’s backers.Supporting Pierre Cadault against JVMA, after all, effectively made Sylvie an enemy of Louis de Léon, and if de Léon were to support Laurent with his new club, Sylvie and de Léon could be more often in each other’s lives, which could be extremely problematic given Sylvie’s connection to Laurent and de Léon’s influence over Laurent’s business.
7Mindy & Benoit’s Song Has Been Accepted For The Eurovision Song Contest
Mindy & Benoit Are Broken Up But Will Be In Each Other’s Lives Because Of Eurovision
Mindy and Benoit broke up early inEmily in Parisseason 3 over his feeling cut off from Mindy’s past among the wealthy and Nicolas’ overtly flirty attitude toward Mindy. However,the song Benoit wrote for Mindy being accepted into the Eurovision Song Contest will inevitably force them to spend time together. Being part of Eurovision could be their big break, something Benoit and Mindy wished their performance at the club could have been inEmily in Parisseason 3.
Alas, the club only offered Mindy a residency, which gave her a chance to do what she loved, but only for a limited time.“Mon Soleil” being accepted as part of the Eurovision Song Contest makes the reunion of Mindy, Benoit and Etienne unescapable, finally leading them somewhere that could kickstart their careers and potentially even rekindle Mindy and Benoit’s feelings after their relationship ended so abruptly in season 3.
I Hope Emily In Paris Season 4 Gives Mindy The Eurovision Story She Deserves
My biggest wish for Mindy in Emily in Paris season 4 is that she gets the Eurovision journey her character’s story has always deserved.

Instead, closely after his and Emily’s talk, Gabriel and Camille got engaged.
Gabriel realized what he wanted the moment he visited the Michelin-starred restaurant in Provence and saw the chef succeeding in uniting his demanding job and caring for his family.Camille being pregnant essentially made the future Gabriel longed for possible, thus making their rushed engagement work, especially from Gabriel’s point of view. Even if season 3’s finale broke up Camille and Gabriel, Camille’s pregnancy will likely impact Gabriel’s story inEmily in Parisseason 4, making such a development important to remember.
5Emily & Gabriel Could Finally Be Together
Camille Telling The Truth & Alfie Breaking Up With Emily Makes It Possible
Camille broke off the engagement withGabriel, essentially ending their relationship inEmily in Parisseason 3’s finale, due to the secrecy of the pact she made with Emily with no intention of keeping it gnawing at her.

4Camille Broke Up With Sofia But Clearly Has Feelings For Her

Another reason for Camille’s surprise revelation of her scheme to keep Gabriel and Emily apart could also be her relationship with Sofia. After learning about her pregnancy, Camille seemingly broke things off with Sofia, refusing to continue seeing her and even describing their relationship to Emily as a fling. However,breaking up with Sofia evidently pained Camille inEmily in Parisseason 3.
Breaking up with Gabriel and giving him and Emily the chance to finally be together without her being in the middle also gives Camille the chance to explore a relationship with Sofia in the open.Emily in Parisseason 4’s trailer even confirms Sofia and Camille remaining in each other’s lives, making a relationship between the artist and the gallerist possibleeven as Camille remains partially linked to Gabriel.

The restaurant changing the name inEmily in Parisseason 3’s finale cemented the implementation of Gabriel’s vision, andone key story also greatly hinted that Gabriel will get his Michelin star relatively soon.
Luc bringing his ex Marianne to L’Esprit de Gigi’s opening night already made Gabriel’s dream of a Michelin-starred restaurant more likely, with Marianne being an inspector and wanting to return for another meal.

2Julien Seemingly Accepted A Job With Another Firm
Working With Emily Smothers Julien In Emily In Paris Season 3
Emily in Parisseason 3 saw coworkers Emily and Julienoften clash due to Emily’s habit of presenting ideas no matter whether it was her client or somebody else’s. Julien even presented the issue to Sylvie, going to lunch with her to underline how he received plenty of offers from other agencies, whose offersJulien would be willing to accept if Emily continued to overshadow his proposals.
Emily in Parisseason 3’s finale showed Julien sending a message to someone unknown, saying he would be available but that it was supposed to remain a secret. It’s unclear whether Julien actually left Agence Grateau inEmily in Parisseason 3’s finale, but if he did, it would undoubtedly mean thatone of Sylvie’s original supporters and employees left because of Emily’s presence at Agence Grateau, complicating things greatly for her inEmily in Parisseason 4.

Emily in Parisseason 4 part 1 releases on Netflix on August 12, 2025, with part 2 following on August 22, 2025.
This greatly impacted Emily’s private life too, as Nicolas managed to drive a wedge between her and Mindy, pushing Emily away on Mindy’s last show, which Mindy would have never known about had it not been for Alfie who told her the truth.While Nicolas apologized to Emily, their companies being essentially enemies and the importance they both gave their jobs can still prompt Nicolas to continue deliberately separating Emily and MindyinEmily in Parisseason 4.
