The third season of Netflix's popular drama “Emily in Paris” hit the streaming platform in December 2022 and was full of French-set drama for gal Emily Cooper (Lily Collins) and her Parisian friends And with the first part of “Emily in Paris” Season 4 premiering on August 15 (the fourth season is in two parts, with the second part due out September 12), viewers may need a little refresher on the romance, designer fashion, and marketing madness of the previous season
Did Emily end up choosing between Gabrielle (Lucas Bravo) and Alfie (Lucien Laviscant)? And what happened to Mindy (Ashley Park) and her music career? What happened to Sylvie (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu), Luc (Bruno Guerry), and Julien (Samuel Arnold) of Agence Grateau? What follows is what happened to the characters in “Emilie in Paris”
It's a bit complicated, but technically, Emily is not supposed to choose between Gabrielle and Alfie by the end of the third season, but back to the story At the beginning of season 3, Emily and Alfie's relationship was in jeopardy, and Alfie felt that Emily was hesitant to move forward with their relationship However, Mademoiselle proved her feelings by serenading him by singing “Alfie” at Mindy's busking session
Things generally went well for the couple during the season, with Alfie agreeing to let Emily see her family, but everything changed in the season finale Despite some happenings in their relationship, such as Camille's secret love affair with client Sophia (Melia Kreiling) and Gabrielle's drunken voicemail confession of love to Emily one night, Gabrielle and Camille decided to marry during their engagement party Not only did Camille call off the wedding at the altar, but Alfie broke up with her, saying that he did not want to be Emily's second choice, because Gabrielle's feelings for Ms Cooper remained
Things seemed to be opening up for Emily and Gabrielle to get together in the finale, but the news that Camille is pregnant with his child threw another wrench in their romantic plans
At the beginning of Season 3, Emily was secretly juggling working for Madeline Wheeler (Kate Walsh) of the Gilbert Group and Sylvie Grato of her newly formed agency Grato After a few twists and turns along the way, including nearly being expelled because Sylvie was using her apartment as an office and the deportation of her American heroine, Emily decided to remain in Paris instead of pledging her loyalty to Sylvie and returning to Chicago with Madeleine
Although the Agence Gratoux people were winning professionally throughout season three, relationship tensions increased toward the end of the season, and Julien (Samuel Arnold) was annoyed that Emily was sticking her neck out on her own ideas during client proposals and overshadowing him was angry with him In the finale episode, Julian seemed to send a message to one of the agencies that had been trying to pull him out throughout the season
At the beginning of Season 3, Mindy was busy busking on the street with band members Etienne (Jin Xuan Mao) and Benoit (Kevin Diaz) while keeping the latter company By mid-season, however, the situation between the two had changed: Mindy was hired to do a solo residency at a nightclub called La Trompette Bleu, and an old friend from boarding school, Nicolas de Leon, a member of the JVMA family who oversees Pierre Cadeau's brand (Paul Foreman), who also reunited with him
Mindy and Nicolas embarked on a relationship, and the JVMA team was furious when she and the Agence Grataux crew helped Pierre take back his brand, causing some drama between Mindy and Emily In the finale, Mindy and Nicolas fought when it was revealed that he had kicked Emily out of a party celebrating Mindy's last show at a nightclub The rift between the couple widened further when Benoit reappeared with the great news that “Mon Soleil” had been entered in the Eurovision Song Contest
When we last saw Mindy in Season 3, she was with Nicolas at Gabrielle and Camille's wedding, but no one knows where she is or with whom in Season 4
Her relationship with photographer Eric de Groot (Søren Blegendal) soon came to an end when her estranged husband Laurent Grateau (Arnaud Binard) returned to help set up Agence Grateau
After skinny-dipping in Provence and a romantic evening at the opera, the couple officially resumed their relationship in Season 3 However, Laurent put the bad news in the finale episode Sylvie was pleased to hear that he wanted to open a private club in Paris, but less pleased to hear that his rival, Louis de Leon of JVMA, was an investment partner in the project
Along with the romantic drama, Gabriel has also been in the news last season for his ownership of a restaurant (now renamed “L'esprit de Gigi” after his grandmother) and, after an emotional lunch with Emily at a Michelin-starred restaurant in Provence in episode 6, his coveted Michelin star She also faced professional hurdles, such as wanting to win a Michelin star
Emily's colleague Luc (Bruno Guerry), who happened to know her ex-boyfriend Marianne (Laurence Gormezano), a Michelin inspector and food critic, begged Emily to bring him to Gabriel's restaurant to critique her cooking And in the final episode of season 3, Luc was almost certain that Gabriel's starry culinary dreams would soon be realized, and things were looking quite positive for the French chef
