Light spoilers for Emily in Paris seasons 4 and 5 ahead. For its first three seasons, Emily in Paris was built on three things: fish-out-of-water hijinks as American ad whiz Emily (Lily Collins) adapted to the City of Lights, maximal French fashions, and love triangles. Whether it was Emily-Gabriel-Camille or Gabriel-Emily-Alfie, the course of Emily's love life has never run smoothly. However, by the end of season 4's first five episodes, it seemed like the titular character had finally begun the start of her happily ever after with her handsome chef neighbor.
Enter Marcello Muratori, played by Italian actor Eugenio Franceschini. Emily's meet-cute with the mystery hottie takes place at the top of a snow-capped mountain, as he rescues her from a near-death experience after Gabriel abandons her to follow a pregnant Camille down the ski slope. Two episodes later, a newly single Emily runs into Marcello again at a polo game and takes him up on his offer to visit him in Rome. Once she arrives in Italy, it turns out that Marcello is far more than the "goat herder" he introduced himself as.
