The new episodes of Emily in Paris wanted to have a very special guest. It is Brigitte Macron, the First Lady of France, who made a cameo in the fourth season of the successful Netflix series.

The wife of President Emmanuel Macron appears in the new episodes playing herself in a scene where she poses for a selfie with Emily (Lily Collins) in a restaurant.

About this, Collins revealed in Elle magazine that the cameo happened when she and the show's creator, Darren Star, met Macron in December 2022. Brigitte Macron is mentioned in the first season of the series and has shown on her social media that she is a loyal follower of Emily in Paris, so her participation in the show has been well received.

"She is a big fan of the series and took with humor that we mentioned her in the first season," Collins said. "This scene in the fourth season is a nod to that moment and filming with her has been an honor and a real joy."

Another great joy

Along with this special cameo, another good news surrounding the return of the series has been that Ashley Park finally was able to join the filming of season 4 and we have been able to see her back on screen.
