Tragedy struck the set of 'Emily in Paris' season 5 on August 21, 2024, with the sudden passing of assistant director Diego Borella. The cast and crew are mourning his loss after he suffered a heart attack during filming.
Borella's passing comes as the ensemble cast, including Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu and Lucas Bravo, are midway through production. Meanwhile, off-screen, actress Ashley Park has been making headlines for her relationship with Paul Forman. The couple met on set during season 3 in 2022 and started dating in December 2023.

Despite their personal lives, Park and Forman will reprise their roles in 'Emily in Paris' season 5, set to premiere on Netflix on December 18. Fans can expect to see them on screen together, despite their off-screen separation.
The loss of Diego Borella has cast a shadow over the 'Emily in Paris' set, while Ashley Park and Paul Forman's split has raised eyebrows among fans. As the cast and crew continue to film, viewers eagerly await the fifth season's release later this year.
