Lily Collins looks as chic as ever in a polka dot dress as she films scenes for fifth season of Emily In Paris in Venice
The actress, 36, who stars as the titular character, has headed to Venice, Italy, for the episodes as the series will follow her journey to Rome.
Filming in a restaurant, Lily wore an elegant polka dot dress with a bandeau neckline and matching scarf.
She pulled her hair back into a sleek, slicked black look and accessorised her outfit with a pair of statement earrings.
Emily was left with a decision at the end of series four, as she was offered the position of the lead of the Italian Agence Grateau office.
Despite falling in love with Paris and the agency, Emily admitted she was tempted by a new life - with a new man - in Rome.
Fans will remember Emily and Gabriel's (Lucas Bravo) romance fell apart after they finally tried to make a go of their relationship after he broke off his relationship with Camille.
Following a fake pregnancy scandal, Camille revealed she wasn't actually expecting and Emily and Gabriel tried to work out a romantic future.
However, it wasn't meant to be for the star-crossed lovers who were unable to work out their differences and she was pushed into the arms of Marcello, after they met on the slopes of Megève, when she was abandoned at the top of a slope by Gabriel.
They crossed paths again at a polo match in Paris and they enjoyed a night out together in the city, which lasted until the following morning when he asked her to come and visit him in Rome.
Emily followed her heart and travelled to meet Marcello, where she was also tasked with acquiring his family's business by her boss Sylvie. However, Emily was reluctant to mix business with pleasure.
The pair hit a stumbling block when he learned of her plans to try and secure a professional relationship with his family, who owned a luxury cashmere company, but they eventually managed to iron their issues out.
At this point, Gabriel had a candid conversation with Alfie (Lucien Laviscount), who urged him to try and win Emily back, despite previously being romantically involved with her himself.
But despite dashing to Rome with the hope of reuniting, Emily was nowhere to be seen as she enjoyed her romantic day out with Marcello.
Speaking about the upcoming series, Lucas said: 'I think Gabriel realised that he doesn't want to let Emily go so easily, and he might have made a big mistake.
'They certainly had a big fight and a cooling-off period. But I think he realised that by the end of the season, that there's something that he doesn't want to let Emily go.
'I don't know what that means. Doesn't necessarily mean they're going to be together instantly or ever. I don't know, but I think he feels there's unfinished business with the two of them.'
However, there is hope for the couple as according to creator Darren Star, the season is not fully moving to Rome.
He told Deadline: 'She didn't change her Instagram handle to Emily in Rome. She is working in Rome sometimes. Sylvie's company has an office in Rome.
'Emily's getting that on its feet. I don't necessarily think that it means a permanent — in my mind, it's definitely not a permanent — move to Rome. We're not leaving Paris.'
The series is expected to air towards the end of this year, but one of the main characters has revealed they won't be returning.
Camille Razat, 31, who plays Camille in the romantic comedy-drama - took to Instagram to reveal the shocking news with an emotional goodbye post after fans fumed at bosses for 'destroying the character'.
Camille has played Emily's pal and love rival in the show since the programme hit the streaming service back in 2020.
Now, after five years on our screens as Camille, the actress is ready to move on.
Sharing various snaps from her time on the show, she wrote: 'After an incredible journey, I've made the decision to step away from Emily in Paris.
'It has been a truly wonderful experience, one filled with growth, creativity, and unforgettable memories.
'I'm deeply grateful to @starmandarren and the entire team at @netflix and @paramountpics for their trust and for giving me the opportunity to bring Camille to life and leaving the door open for her return, as she will always be a part of Emily In Paris world.
'This character has meant a lot to me, and I feel that her storyline has naturally come to an end. It felt like the right moment to explore new horizons.'
She added: 'I've recently wrapped two series: Nero for Netflix and the Lost Station Girls for Disney+. I'm also excited to share that I've launched my own production company, @tazar_production.
'We mainly produce music videos and short films for now, but we're currently developing our first feature film, something I'm truly passionate about and excited to grow.
'I leave the show with nothing but love and admiration for the cast, crew, and fans who have supported us along the way. Thank you for the beautiful ride.'
Her fans and co-stars rushed to the comments section to share their support.
Lily said: 'Love you sister. It's been a wild ride and an absolute pleasure. You're a rockstar. So proud of you.'
Philippine Beaulieu added: 'You'll be so missed ma chérie Frenchie!!!'
Lucien wrote: 'From day one you've been my rider on this show. Your passion for story telling, your dark sense of humour, your unwavering ability to stay true to yourself, when everything's pushing you in a different direction.
'You're special Camille and I feel absolutely honoured to of been able to dance with you these past seasons. Keep on shining.
'I'm going to miss laughing with you. I'm cheering you on in everything you do.'
Emily In Paris premiered on Netflix in October 2020.
The synopsis on the streaming service reads: 'New passions. New fashions. New Emily?
'A plucky American marketing whiz spreads her wings in life and love after landing her dream job in Paris.'
The show, created by Star, has had 40 episodes run over four seasons.
It stars the likes of Lily, Philippine, Ashley Park, Lucas, Samuel Arnold, Bruno Gouery, William Abadie and Lucien.

Heartbreaking moment Adam Collard breaks down over fiancee Laura Woods miscarriage on Celebrity SAS
ADAM Collard breaks down in tears over fiancee Laura Woods' miscarriage in heartbreaking Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins scenes tonight. The former Love Islander signed up for the Channel 4 series alongside 13 other famous faces. 5 5 But in tonight's episode, Adam reveals how he almost backed out of participating, after a difficult few months in his personal life. Speaking to the Special Forces staff on the show, an emotional Adam explains how he was diagnosed with depression. He struggles to get his words out before saying: "One of them was with my erm lost it was really close to getting there a second time and telling everyone." As the tears fall, the staff clarify that he's talking about a miscarriage and Adam nods. He adds: "I think I was proud of the fact that I was excited for it, which I didn't think I ever would be. "And when it got taken away, and it was 10 times worse for her, I think it hit us like a tonne of bricks. "We just really, really went to a bit of a bad place. And to be honest, in front of her I pretended I was cool, and pretended I was absolutely fine." Later in the episode, the tears flow again as the celebrities are tasked with reading out their 'death letters', which they were asked to write to their loved ones. As Adam stands up to read his out, he pays tribute to Laura and how much he is thinking of her, before saying: "The last few months have been really tough, but nowhere near as tough as you. Adam continues to read: "We lost a baby recently" but then starts to sob, as his co-stars look just as emotional, not knowing what he had been through until that moment. Laura Woods gives birth to first child with Adam Collard as couple reveal sweet name in adorable post He says: "I wish I had one more night to give you the world's biggest cuddle. Love you always, Adam." Conor Benn then goes over to give Adam a cuddle, who sheds more tears as he is consoled over his loss. In a piece to camera, Adam praised Laura, saying: "I'd say I'm pretty closed off as a person and she definitely helped me to open up." Despite their baby heartbreak, the couple - who got together in 2023 and became engaged in September last year - welcomed son Leo in January this year. What is miscarriage and why do pregnancies fail? MISCARRIAGE is generally the death of an unborn baby in the first 24 weeks – approximately six months – of pregnancy. Miscarriages may not be spoken about a lot but they are very common. Baby loss charity Tommy's estimates there are at least 250,000 per year in the UK and that one in every five pregnancies ends in miscarriage. It may not be clear why a miscarriage happens but they are rarely caused by anything done by the mother or father. Usually the embryo has a random genetic defect that means it cannot develop properly. Most women can go on to successfully have healthy babies in the future. The NHS says most miscarriages cannot be prevented but avoiding smoking, alcohol and drugs while pregnant can reduce the risk. Some of the other most common reasons for a pregnancy to fail in the first 24 weeks are ectopic pregnancy and molar pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancy is where a fertilised egg implants somewhere outside of the womb, usually in a fallopian tube. It cannot survive and grow there so either dies naturally or must be terminated. Molar pregnancy is rarer but happens when a fertilised egg and/or placenta does not develop properly at the start of a pregnancy. There is no single reason why it happens and cannot be prevented, though it may be more common in very young or old mothers. A baby who dies after 24 weeks is considered a stillbirth. Source: NHS 5 5

Terence Stamp: the mesmerisingly seductive dark prince of British cinema
'A stranger arrives, makes love to everyone and then leaves,' said Pier Paolo Pasolini to Terence Stamp, outlining the plot of his 1968 classic Theorem. 'That's your part.' Stamp exclaimed. 'I can play that.' It was the role that the man was born to play and would play, with subtle variations, throughout his career. From his first appearance as the eerily beautiful sailor in 1962's Billy Budd through to his last manifestation as 'the silver-haired gentleman' in Edgar Wright's Last Night in Soho, Stamp remained a brilliantly, mesmerisingly unknowable presence. He was the seductive dark prince of British cinema, an actor who carried an air of elegant mystery. 'As a boy I always believed I could make myself invisible,' he once said. He showed up and made magic, but he never stuck around for as long as we wanted. Sign up to Film Weekly Take a front seat at the cinema with our weekly email filled with all the latest news and all the movie action that matters after newsletter promotion Stamp's talent was timeless but he was a creature of the 60s, forged in the crucible of postwar social mobility and as much a poster boy for the era as his one-time flatmate Michael Caine. 'Terry meets Julie, Waterloo station, every Friday night,' Ray Davies sang on the Kinks's Waterloo Sunset and while he wasn't necessarily singing about Stamp and Julie Christie – at least not consciously – the actors and the song have now become intertwined, part of a collective cultural fabric, to the point where that mental image of the two of them by the Thames is almost as much a part of Stamp's showreel as his actual 60s pictures. He was born in London's East End, the son of a tugboat coalman who regarded acting with horror, and his rough-hewn swagger lent a crucial grit and danger to his refined matinee idol aesthetic. He gave a superb performance – full of seething chippy rage – in 1965's The Collector, a role that won him the best actor prize at Cannes, made an excellent dastardly lover in Far from the Madding Crowd and whipped up a storm in Federico Fellini's uproarious Toby Dammit. But he was always a more febrile movie actor than his compatriots – Caine, Sean Connery, Richard Harris, Peter O'Toole – and so his career proved more fragile and never truly bedded down. 'When the 60s ended, I almost did too,' he once said, ruefully acknowledging a decade-long slump that only came to an end when he was cast as General Zod in 1978's Superman. In the subsequent years he played too many off-the-peg Brits – thuggish gangsters, evil businessmen – in subpar productions, although this only made his occasional great role feel all the more precious. Stamp was at his full-blooded best in Stephen Frears's 80s crime drama The Hit, sparked briefly as the devil in The Company of Wolves and was fabulous as Bernadette in 1994's Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. But his great later role – and arguably the ultimate Stamp performance – was in The Limey, Steven Soderbergh's 1999 revenge tale. Soderbergh casts him as Wilson, an ageing career criminal who haunts LA like a ghost. It's a film that is implicitly about Stamp's youth and age, beautifully folding the present-day drama in with scenes in Ken Loach's Poor Cow to show what happened to the golden generation of swinging 60s London – and by implication, what happens to all of us. Somewhere along the way, wending his way up the coast to Big Sur, Stamp's knackered criminal stops being a ghost and becomes a kind of living sculpture, a priceless piece of cinema history, returned for one last gig to seduce the world and set it spinning before heading off towards the sunset.

Perrie Edwards' secret anxiety disorder that stopped the Little Mix star leaving the house
PERRIE Edwards has shared the secret anxiety disorder that stopped her from leaving the house. The singer, 32, rose to fame in girl band Little Mix from 2011 until 2022. 4 4 They initially formed on The X Factor before achieving worldwide success. Perrie discussed her experience with agoraphobia in a recent interview. The star, who also shares a three-year-old son with ex-England footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, said she feels "fully in her element" while performing on stage. She added to The Telegraph: "But as soon as I'm back home behind closed doors, that's when the anxiety kicks in and I'm just me again." Perrie clarified she has "quite a thick skin" with online comments about her appearance or clothes. She continued: "[I can't help] but catastrophise about the everyday things that should be easy, like getting into my car and driving to London. "At the end of last year, my agoraphobia got so bad I could barely leave the house." The star also revealed having been "painfully shy" before her time on The X Factor. It comes as Perrie's bandmate Jade Thirlwall addressed being diagnosed with disordered eating at the height of Little Mix's fame. Since leaving Little Mix, Jade has admitted to putting on weight after the pressures put on her to be "stick-thin" while in the pop group. Perrie Edwards says she still cries over Jesy Nelson leaving Little Mix five years on - but insists 'we did everything we could' But the scrutiny on her changing body has not eased and Jade admitted feeling the temptation to go on weight-loss injections such as Mounjaro, or Ozempic as is the brand name in the US. "Little Mix fans were all about empowerment and celebrating your body however you look," Jade said in an interview with The Guardian. "Now I'm in my 30s and the healthiest I've ever been, but every time I post a picture, there are comments saying, 'She must be pregnant'... people are used to seeing me in a group environment five or 10 years ago when I was stick-thin because I was in my early 20s with an eating disorder.' Jade added that she did not realise in the moment that she had a disordered eating issue. "But when I look back at photos of periods when I was quite unhappy, I think, 'wow, girlie, you were very, very thin'," she explained.

Historically, if I've ever felt that something is out of my control, then restricting food has been a means of controlling my life in a very toxic way.' The Angel Of My Dreams singer got so bad around 2017 that her mum and a friends of hers drove down from her hometown of South Shields, near Newcastle. They made sure Jade was eating and getting her to gigs, but taking a break from Little Mix never crossed her mind. 'If you stop working in this business, then everybody wants to know why, and I couldn't be arsed for everything that came with that. So I kept it moving,' Jade said. 4
