Ahead of Netflix's Emily In Paris 5, a quick recap of Emily's journey to Rome in season 4

Netflix’s Emily in Paris Season 4 wrapped up with major emotional twists and changes for its characters, setting the stage for the upcoming fifth season. The finale left fans with career shifts, romantic shakeups and a big move to Rome as Emily Cooper’s life evolves beyond the City of Light. As you gear up for the final season of Emily in Paris, which is streaming on Netflix from today, let’s have a quick recap of what happened in both parts of the fourth season.

What happened in Season 4

In Season 4, Emily (Lily Collins) continued navigating her marketing career in Paris while confronting deep relationship drama. She and Alfie reconcile briefly but ultimately realise they aren’t right for each other, leading to a heartfelt breakup. Meanwhile, Camille’s storyline takes a dramatic turn when a pregnancy she believed was real turns out to be a false alarm, a revelation that affects her relationships and opens new emotional chapters for the characters around her.

Twist in love life

Emily and Gabriel finally admit their love for each other, but they struggle to stay together amid personal growth and complicated pasts. Their relationship falters after a ski trip incident and other unresolved issues. At the same time, Emily’s chance meeting with Marcello, a charming Italian businessman, leads to new romantic possibilities - one that hints at a meaningful connection beyond Paris.

Emily’s big move to Rome

The biggest twist of the season is Emily’s relocation to Rome. Agence Grateau taps into an Italian business opportunity, and Emily is appointed to lead the agency’s new Rome office, marking a dramatic shift in her professional life. While she doesn’t completely leave Paris behind, this move signals a fresh start both in work and in love.
