The Netflix show Emily in Paris is a sight for sore eyes and our wanderlusting hearts. But it’s Emily’s French neighbour Gabriel that has all our attention. Gabriel’s character has put French actor Lucas Bravo under the spotlight and the internet can’t seem to get enough of him.
Thanks to the pandemic, our wanderlust has had to take a backseat for months now. That’s where Netflix’s latest show Emily In Paris steps right in to fill the void of our Parisian dreams. The show is both an indulgence and an escape from the reality of the new normal, right from the scenic city of romance down to the designer wear even Blair Waldorf would approve of. But between freshly baked pain au chocolat runs and Gossip Girl references, it’s Emily’s French neighbour Gabriel that has all our attention.
Which #EmilyinParis character are you giving a *chef's kiss* to and WHY IS IT GABRIEL? 💋https://t.co/jcqUNGeqqF pic.twitter.com/jnR9vsVOGW

“Wait… so you’re single? In Paris?,” is a bewildering statement Lilly Collins’ Emily hears quite a few times following her breakup with her long-time boyfriend in Chicago. But who can blame Emily’s friends for their confusion when there’s a hot neighbour to hit up right there? Bonus: Gabriel isn’t just hot, soft-spoken and a bit of a knight in shining armour, he can cook some smokin’ hot dishes too! Can we have some of those chef Gabriel-special omelettes, please?
i'll eat whatever this chef serves. like, everything. literally, everything. *salivating* #EmilyInParis pic.twitter.com/rkdVa80jVm

Though the romance between Emily and Gabriel could be tagged as “It’s Complicated”, we really don’t blame Ems for swooning over this charmer. As they say, the thirst is real.
Gabriel is too fine. I’d be plotting on him too!! Oui oui #EmilyInParis pic.twitter.com/zvPwMH3gmJ

Done watching #EmilyInParis . The story is quite predictable and its like a typical romcom but it was light hearted and very entertaining. The episodes are only 30 minutes long. The lead actor is very hansome and charming😍. Wouldn't mind watching a second season pic.twitter.com/BfUlrVQcbr

While Emily in Paris is peppered with gorgeous men, Gabriel’s character has put French actor Lucas Bravo under the spotlight and the internet can’t seem to get enough of him.

It’s a pity though that Gabriel is a bit of a cheater. But hey! Bravo for the win!

What’s more? Gabriel can whip up an omelette in a jiffy as he navigates the romance. That’s not just good acting – the 32-year-old actor used to be a sous chef in a restaurant a few years ago.
I stayed up until 2:30am and binge watched this series #EmilyInParis and mostly because of #lucasbravo https://t.co/pBIf2c3p0G

If you’re not convinced of internet’s new crush, here’s Lucas Bravo with long hair to help you seal the deal. You can thank us later!

With things looking up for the series, a season 2 might not be too far away – which means we’ll get to see more of Lucas on screen as our Hot French Neighbour/Chef Gabriel that we can never have. Brb, gonna go sign up for those French lessons now.
guys let’s be honest, we all fell in love with Lucas Bravo #EmilyInParis
Gabriel’s a oui for me 💙🤍❤️ pic.twitter.com/HuPlR3UWJK
