According to French President Emmanuel Macron, the heroine of the series Emily in Paris should return to Paris from Rome. According to him, her stay in the Italian capital in the last series of the film of the American internet television Netflix does not make sense. Macron told Variety. “We will fight hard. And we ask them to stay in Paris! ‘Emily in Paris’ has no meaning in Rome,” said the French president.

In the fourth season of the series, the American expat Emily, played by the actress Lily Collins, moves from Paris to Rome for work. The success of the series, the first episodes of which Netflix launched at the time of the covid-19 pandemic, was such that Macron’s wife Brigitte also appeared in the last series.

“I was very proud of her and she was very happy about it. She’s only there for a few minutes, but I think she enjoyed it,” Macron said of his wife’s performance. He added that, in his opinion, the film is a good advertisement for France.
The series won fans for its idealized and romanticized version of life in Paris. Critics blame it for often bearing little resemblance to the reality of life in the French capital and neglecting the poorer parts of Paris. According to some French people, it is superficial and full of clichés about their country.
