“For me as Emily, but also as a producer on [the show], after season one, hearing people’s thoughts, concerns, questions, likes, dislikes, just feelings about it, there were certain things that spoke to the time that we’re living in and what’s right, and moral and correct and should be done,” Lily told Elle UK.

“And I really wanted diversity and inclusion in front of and behind the camera to be something that we really put our focus on, in a lot of ways. Hiring new people in front of the camera, also giving new storylines to different characters, which was really important,” she continued.

Lily also dished on what it was like filming the season during the pandemic.

“It was very empty when I first got there. And there weren’t any Americans around because they weren’t allowed,” she said. “So that felt even more strange, because the only accents you would hear were French – which was also really lovely.”
