‘Emily in Paris’ Fans May Have Decoded What Could Cause Emily and Marcello’s Breakup in Season 5
- Emily’s love life is poised for a big change as 'Emily in Paris' season 5 approaches.
- Her current beau, Marcello, shows red flags that are raising concerns among fans.
- That's why they have a few reasons suggesting it may not work out for them.
As fans eagerly await the fifth season of Emily in Paris, there’s plenty to discuss. The fourth season wrapped up with a tantalizing cliffhanger, leaving viewers excited about Emily Cooper’s (Lily Collins) love life. Netflix officially confirmed the fifth season on September 16, right after Emily’s latest escapades in Paris and Rome.
Yes, our favorite show is set for more drama, romance, and fashion faux pas. In season four of Emily in Paris, Emily faced dilemmas with her current Italian beau, Marcello Muratori (Eugenio Franceschini). While he’s dashing and charming, some fans are skeptical about their chemistry.
Fans are left wondering if their whirlwind romance can survive the Italian charm and Emily’s heart, which may still belong to Paris. Is he a bump in the road between Emily and Gabriel (Lucas Bravo)? Fans seem to have answers to these question marks!
A Fan Predicts Reasons for Emily and Marcello’s Breakup
You heard that right! Emily in Paris fans think they have figured out why Emily and Marcello might break up in the coming season. A fan, @jenonajetplane, took to Threads and posted their reasons for thinking Marcello is a red flag.
So, let’s discuss those points one by one, shall we? First things first: in Season 4, we saw that his very first text to Emily was a photo of him lounging in bed. Now, that’s one way to make an impression—just not a good one! They barely knew each other, yet he was already showing off his ‘morning glory.’
Then, there was that moment at the Coliseum. Emily, in her natural work mode, wanted to snap some pics for her job. But Marcello, with his ‘look with your eyes’ line, acted like he was a know-it-all. Next, we need to address the Sylvie situation. Emily opened up, ready to explain herself, yet Marcello didn’t believe her. Come on!
Trust is key in any relationship, and he dropped the ball. Not to mention, when they discussed future meetups, Marcello casually suggested that Emily should fly to him—again. It gives off major ‘you come to me’ vibes, which isn’t exactly romantic.
Another Reason—Emily’s Tough Choices Could End Her Relationship with Marcello
According to another fan on the same thread, Marcello’s love for Rome is as clear. While it’s sweet, it also brings up some questions. Emily is an adventurous spirit, but can she compete with a city and family that he adores? The writers have set up Marcello as someone deeply rooted in his home, and that might clash with Emily’s Parisian dreams.
If the show focuses on this family situation, viewers might witness some big challenges for our leading lady. Marcello’s impulsive nature could lead to decisions made on a whim, leaving Emily caught in the crossfire of ‘I love Rome’ and ‘I love you.’
As the season goes on, we’ll likely see her pulled between her Paris dreams and a relationship that might not last. Let’s not forget, Emily’s true heart may still beat for French chef Gabriel. Their connection has that classic Ross and Rachel vibe. They’re both a bit toxic but undeniably drawn to each other.
There is no final date on when Emily in Paris season 5 will be released. Meanwhile, you can watch the earlier seasons on Netflix.
