The show was an instant hit, watched by 58M households in the first 4 weeks after its October 2020 launch.
With season 2 on the way, we decided to take a closer look at actress Lily Collins.
Did you know that her dad is Phil Collins?
If not, you’re not the only one.
Wait…Lily Collins, the star of Emily in Paris, is the daughter of Phil Collins?!?

Yup, you heard that right. Lily Collins is the youngest daughter of her world-famous musician dad, well-loved for hits like “In The Air Tonight” and the entire Tarzan soundtrack.
In fact, Lily Collins had a minor voice role in Tarzan, and “You’ll Be In My Heart” was based on a lullaby he wrote for her when she was a baby!
Who is Lily Collins dating?
Lily Collins has been dating Charlie McDowell, a writer and director known for The One I Love starring Elizabeth Moss. The adorable pair got engaged in September 2020.
They’re always posting the cutest pics with their pup Redford, who has his own Instagram. They go on all sorts of outdoor adventures together.

Lily Collins is doing some HollyGOOD for the world, too
On Friday, Deadline announced that Lily Collins is one of three Hollywood ambassadors for Go Campaign, an organization currently focused on providing relief for the worsening COVID crisis in India.
“India is facing a devastating second wave of COVID-19 and their healthcare system does not have enough resources to care for everybody,” Lily Collins said. “They are in dire need of protective equipment, oxygen, medicine, and food to save lives. I have such beautiful memories of my time in India and the country will always hold such a special place in my heart.”
Actors Robert Pattinson and Ewan McGregor have also spoken up to encourage people to raise funds.
