Lily Collins has ceremoniously bid farewell to 2025, marking the end of a year she regards as drastically altering her life due to her mothering.

Her post received an overwhelmingly positive response, with followers not only sending their congratulatory messages regarding her private happiness but also trying to see the future of her hit series ‘Emily in Paris’ based on the latest Instagram posts.

Collins’ words showed a genuine and grateful retrospective. She seized the moment to announce to the world that the new life of a mother brought new meaning to her life and that she had even rediscovered the charm in ordinary days and moments. ‘Celebrating firsts again and appreciating all the little things in between’, she was pointing to the global blessings of the year hailed as the growth, opportunity, adventure and a vast amount of love. It was a traditional year-end recap, but at the same time, the emotional and life-changing aspect of the first-time parent was discreetly present.
It did not take long for the comments section to be filled with a combination of warm wishes and wild speculations by her fans. A user from a prominent magazine account put it in a nutshell, ‘Happy New Year! 2026 here we come!!!’, while, at the same time., others were already pondering over the professional life of Collins. The debate seemed to continue indefinitely, with the main theme being the future not of her real child but of a fictional one: Emily Cooper.
One comment in all caps saying ‘EMILY IN GREECE SEASON 6’ made the viewers thoughtful and sparked a mini-discussion among them. It was pretty clear that the thought was an extremely popular one. One supporter of the idea even said it was a ‘perfect idea’ and a second one went even deeper into the story line and questioning, ‘I just can’t wait till what happens but i need Emily should go back to gabriel so emily and marcelo can be friends as usual that would be good.’ The character’s romance was a burning topic with another comment suggesting ‘Emily is magic, She should be with a true man, maybe a new actor is coming!’ This prompted a response brimming with enthusiasm envisioning ‘a more new handsome guy we need it as she should.’ The fans’ fervor knows no boundaries and one of the comments in Portuguese, when translated, read like this: ‘Now it’s just waiting and seeing everything in one day. Because I cannot stop watching until the last episode of the season. ❤️’
Meanwhile, amidst all the show discussions, Lily Collins received love and care messages directly. One long comment took notice for its frankness: ‘I want to wish you a happy new year!! I hope 2026 is full of surprises and that it’s a year filled with health, love, and friendship… I’m so proud of you and everything you did this year. You are a wonderful mom and an amazing person. I love you.’ Another fan combined the love and humor and asked, ‘Friend, your life is everything, but do you cry or not? ❤️❤️❤️greetings I love you so much I’m your fan.’ Supporters from her close friends and collegues poured in with one calling her a ‘goddess’ and exclaiming, ‘What a year, what a gal.’
