PARIS / ROME — Netflix has officially confirmed that Emily in Paris will return for a sixth season. The renewal, announced on January 5, 2026, comes less than three weeks after the premiere of Season 5, proving that the world’s appetite for Emily Cooper’s vibrant fashion and chaotic romance remains as strong as ever.
The news was delivered via a quintessential social media clip featuring lead star Lily Collins. In the video, Collins is seen blowing out a “6” candle perched atop a giant croissant, captioned with the phrase: “Home sweet home EMILY IN PARIS is returning for Season 6!”
By the Numbers: Why the Renewal Was a “No-Brainer”
Netflix’s decision follows explosive viewership data for the fifth installment. According to the streamer:
- 26.8 Million Views: Season 5 reached this milestone in just its first 11 days.
- Global Reach: The show hit the No. 1 spot in 24 different countries.
- Consistency: Every season of the Darren Star-created dramedy has landed in Netflix’s Global Top 10.
Where We Left Off (Spoiler Warning)
Season 5 saw Emily expanding her horizons beyond the Seine, taking a major professional leap to open an Agence Grateau office in Rome. While she found a new romantic spark with luxury fashion heir Marcello Muratori (played by Eugenio Franceschini), the finale left fans on a massive cliffhanger.
Just as Emily seemed settled in Italy, her ex-boyfriend Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) received a text from Sylvie revealing that Emily was single again. The season concluded with Gabriel being invited to Greece for a yacht trip and sending a postcard to Emily—leaving her to choose between her new Roman holiday and a potential reunion with her first French love.
What to Expect in Season 6
While official plot details are under wraps, showrunner Darren Star has hinted that the show will continue to embrace its “nomadic” spirit.
- New Destinations: There is heavy speculation that part of the season could take place in Greece, following Gabriel’s invitation.
- The Cast: Lily Collins, Ashley Park (Mindy), Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu (Sylvie), and the rest of the core Agence Grateau team are all expected to return.
- Release Date: While no date is confirmed, industry analysts predict a late 2026 or early 2027 premiere based on the show’s usual production cycle.
