Emily In Paris star Lily Collins links arms with husband Charlie McDowell during romantic trip to Rome

Lily Collins cut a chic casual figure as she stepped out in Rome with her husband Charlie McDowell on Wednesday.

The actress, 35, – who is currently enjoying a break from filming Emily In Paris – looked stunning in an oversized beige striped shirt as she linked arms with her love.

She paired a white cardigan underneath and opted for loose-fitting black shorts as she and her husband did some sightseeing around the city.

The beauty showed off her leggy looks as she wore a pair of comfortable trainers and carried her essentials in a black backpack.

She styled her brunette locks for the day in loose, voluminous waves and wore a pair of oversized black sunglasses.

Meanwhile, her husband Charlie, 40, looked casual in a black T-shirt and checked shorts.

The film director – who made his directorial debut with the romantic thriller The One I Love – also opted for a pair of comfortable sneakers and wore matching black high socks.

He trudged around with a shopping bag as the pair strolled through the backstreets of Rome.

It comes after Lily and Eugenio Franceschini looked cozy as they were spotted riding a Vespa at Villa Borghese in Rome as they continued filming Emily In Paris last week.

The actress, who stars as American Emily Cooper in the Netflix show, smiled as she wrapped her arms around his waist in the scene.

She looked fantastic in a retro polka dot midi dress, with white and black shoes and sunglasses.

Meanwhile, Eugenio, 32, who is new to the show, wore a burgundy ensemble and helmet during filming.

The scene was similar to Lily James and Dominic West’s very public scandal, which saw them riding through the streets of Rome on a single e-scooter.

Dominic, who is married to Catherine FitzGerald, and Lily were later hit with accusations that they breached Italy’s COVID-19 safety guidelines after the romantic city break.

Emily In Paris returns for a fourth season which lead star Lily has promised will be full of ‘adventure’.

Lily has confirmed that the upcoming episodes will be released in two parts on the global streaming platform.

The first five shows can be viewed from August 15, with viewers having to wait almost an entire month for the second episode in September.

And the cast, including Lucien Laviscount, 31, who plays Emily’s British love interest Alfie and Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, 61, aka her Parisian boss Sylvie, say the new season is set to bring more drama than ever before.

Lucien labeled the series as “chaotic” and “heartbreaking,” while Philippine gave a taste of the action by saying the new episodes are all about “revenge.”

Earlier this month, Lily announced: “Season four will be released on August 15 for part one. Part two will be released on September 12, you’re welcome.’

In an accompanying video, Lily and her co-stars responded in three words about how they would describe the new series, with Camille Razat, 30, whose character discovered she was pregnant at the end of season three, saying it was “messy.”

Ashley Park, 32, who plays Emily’s best friend Mindy Chen, joked: “If I could describe season four in three words right now… not done yet…”

Luca, one of Emily’s French colleagues, played by Bruno Gouery, hinted at a possible new love interest for the marketing manager and titled the series “Bellezza,” which means “beauty” in Italian.

His tease follows new photos from the upcoming series, which show Emily looking fondly at a handsome man, played by actor Eugenio Franceschini, during scenes filmed in Rome, Italy, at the Trevi Fountain.

Emily hasn’t had much luck dating since she moved from Chicago to Paris in search of her dream marketing job.

She fell for neighbor Gabriel, aka Lucas Bravo, 36, despite the chef having an on/off relationship with her close friend Camille.

And her romance with Brit Alfie came to a dramatic end when Camille refused to marry Gabriel in the series three finale, revealing she had always known about his hidden feelings for Emily.

There are still secrets to be revealed, including Camille’s affair with artist Sofia, which Emily knows about but Gabriel remains unaware.

Plus, the big reveal of Camille’s pregnancy makes any potential chance for romance between Emily and Gabriel even harder to navigate.

Emily In Paris was created by Sex and the City writer Darren Star, who has admitted he understands why viewers have drawn comparisons between Lily’s character and Carrie Bradshaw, played by Sarah Jessica Parker.

He said: “I understand why people are linking the two series together. They are all set in a glamorous city with a female lead, but the idea of ​​Emily In Paris was very different. I’ve been wanting to write a series about an expat living in Paris for a while now.’
