“She’ll have her feet on the ground a little more. She’s making a life there.”

In addition, he elaborated to Collider: “[Emily is going] to have a lot of complicated choices with a lot of the men in her life. Certainly with Gabriel, who’s been the primary relationship.

“But also her primary relationship is also with Camille, who she really became very good friends with…

“And I think Emily’s the kind of girl that would never want to betray a friend – so I think it’s given Emily a real moral dilemma.”

What has Lily Collins said about the new series?

Lily said she can’t wait to get stuck into series two and that she’s delighted over how well the series has been received.

She said: “As an actor, an artist, and a creative, the most meaningful gift is to connect with people through your art in some way.

“It’s an honour to be associated with a project that provided people with some much-needed relief during a trying time.

“When everyone was looking for a reason to smile and laugh. Not only did playing Emily teach me more about myself, but also about the world around me.

“I couldn’t be happier to be back in Paris for Season 2 to expand upon those lessons, to continue to grow, and learn even more about this beautiful city and all of its character with Emily.”
