🤐 SPOILER ALERT 🤐

Emily in Paris star Emily (Lily Collins) loves to problem solve — much to the chagrin of her Parisian co-workers. (Sorry, Julien!) But the Season 3 adventures of Emily and her friends often create more questions than answers. Like, “What’s a McBaguette?” And, “Is that person really pregnant?” 

It’s time to fix our collective bangs and get to the bottom of these mysteries. Emily would expect nothing less. 

Is the McBaguette actually real? 

Actually, yes. Right now, the sandwich includes baguette bread, minced steak, salad, Emmental cheese, old-fashioned mustard and Dijon mustard sauce, according to the McDonald’s France website. 

The fast-food item is introduced in Episode 1, when Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) takes Emily to a “chic” McDonald’s on a professional assignment. As Emily’s Chicago ex, Doug (Roe Hartrampf), tells her, McDonald’s is looking for a French marketing agency to help launch their new item, the McBaguette. Although Emily in Paris suggests the sandwich is brand new, its McDonald’s France history far outpaces Emily’s arrival in the City of Light. The McBaguette debuted in 2012 for a limited time and has continued to reappear over the last decade. 

Right now, you can thank Emily for its return; the McBaguette is currently only available on McDonald’s France’s Emily in Paris menu as a celebration of the new season. 

Is the kir royale the next negroni sbagliato... with prosecco in it? 

It may be — just ask exhausted bartenders everywhere if they’ve started running out of black currant liqueur, aka crème de cassis. As Luc (Bruno Gouery) tells Emily in Episode 4, a kir royale is crème de cassis topped with champagne, “the perfect drink to sip and do nothing as the Ferris wheel turns.” 

The breezy exchange fits in with one of Gouery’s favorite parts of filming Emily in Paris. “I really liked being able to show the character of Emily, [and] the audience at the same time, the more cultural aspects of Paris,” he told Netflix. 

Ever the marketing whiz, Emily immediately takes this new Parisian knowledge and applies it to work. She recommends Camille’s (Camille Razat) family create Chamère, a canned kir royale and spin-off to Season 2’s Champère. While a kir royale is definitely real, Chamère hasn’t hit the shelves... yet. 

Why is everyone talking about Kim Cattrall and Emily in Paris?

Cattrall — star of Sex and the City, created by Emily in Paris creator Darren Star — walked the carpet at the Season 3 premiere in Paris. 

Is that really Ashley Park singing? 

Of course it is. Before belting out the likes of Dua Lipa and Lady Gaga on Emily in Paris, Park, who plays Mindy, dazzled audiences on Broadway. She earned a Tony nomination for her performance as the proud daughter of the inventor of Toaster Strudel — yes, the Gretchen Weiners — in the Mean Girls musical.

“We joked that Season 2 of Emily in Paris became a musical, but I was the only person in the musical,” Park says. “I’m really excited that she gets to sing more in Season 3.”

Wait — is Camille pregnant? 

Grab the nearest designer baby bottle, because yes — Camille is pregnant. In Episode 6, Camille agrees to go to Greece with her artist lover, Sofia (Melia Kreiling). By Episode 8, Gabriel is drinking Japanese whiskey at the canal, fretting about his girlfriend partying in Greece (completely oblivious to her affair). But by the end of that episode, Camille is back in Paris and all of Gabriel’s fears are supposedly gone. Soon after, Gabriel and Camille get engaged. It’s enough to make your head spin. 

Yet this entire romantic roller coaster makes sense by the finale, when Gabriel tells Emily that Camille is pregnant. Clearly, she tells him the news off-camera the night she returns in Episode 8. If you think you’re surprised by this turn of events, just imagine how Razat feels. “I love babies, but working with them is weird,” the French actor told Tudum in a wide-ranging conversation.

And is Alfie coming back? 

Well, he certainly could, as Lucien Laviscount, who plays Alfie, and Emily in Paris creator Star point out. “Alfie still has a job in Paris,” Star succinctly reminds us. 

But Emily’s latest boyfriend does have many reasons to hightail it out of France and back to London. In the second-to-last scene of Season 3, Camille tells an entire wedding of people — Alfie included — that Emily and Gabriel have been in love since they first met. Alfie is understandably heartbroken at the revelation. 

Still, Laviscount questions whether all of Alfie’s good will for Emily dried up in that moment. “I don’t think love ever leaves anyone,” he theorizes to Tudum. “To be invested with anyone, you fall in love and you don’t fall out of love. Your love changes, I guess.” 

Will Alfie’s evolving feelings keep him in Paris? Or has he slipped out of Emily’s life forever? “Those are all questions we’re thinking about right now for Season 4. But I love Alfie, I love Lucien,” Star demures. 

What does that ending mean for Emily and Gabriel? 

With Camille pregnant, only Star truly knows the answer to that question. 

“These are two characters who are star-crossed lovers,” he says. “They have a lot of passion for one another. They have things that are getting in their way, but, at the same time, I feel like every season, in a strange kind of way, their relationship deepens.”

A baby does tend to bring people together in the most unexpected of ways.
