No, Madeline hasn’t been pregnant for 18 months
Keeping up with Emily Cooper is a difficult task, her days are absolutely chocka with work events, getaways and spontaneous date nights. At this point, we have to question whether she’s running on croissants and her silly little berets alone or if Emily in Paris is actually set within a realistic time frame.
So for your sanity, here’s a breakdown of the time frame we see in Emily in Paris on Netflix starting with season one.
September or October: Emily get’s her job in Paris
Right so we know for a fact Emily in Paris starts in Autumn. She gets her job in Paris after her boss, Madeline, learns she is pregnant and gives Emily her position in Paris. It’s important to note she’s at a bar with her boyfriend when she gets the offer. They were watching a Chicago Cubs game and her boyfriend explained they were going to the playoffs after the win.

This is a very clear timeline to make things as easy as possible. It’s not said how long Emily had in Chicago before jetting off to Paris but it looked like Spring however when she’s on the phone to her boyfriend, she says: “We can watch the playoffs in the Slingbox, you won’t have to miss a game,” suggesting she’s moved pretty quickly.
This was further confirmed by Emily when she FaceTimed Madeline who was still very early in her pregnancy.
