Did you catch it? Emily in Pariscrossover in the newest episode of And Just Like That…? If you didn’t, allow us to point it out for you. Warning: There are minor spoilers ahead.
Uninterested in painting a women’s shelter in Greenpoint (she’s gonna donate, don’t worry), Carrie’s fabulous realtor friend Seema (Sarita Choudhury) sits at a table down the block, enjoying a cigarette and some phone time. She had mentioned earlier in the episode that this year (it was her birthday) might be her year when she finally meets her man. SATC style, a handsome, sophisticated guy appears out of thin air to grant her wish: Zed, who owns the club Seema’s sitting in front of.
Right away we know this character’s going to have an impact because we already learned Seema’s in the mood to go dancing at a club. But what’s equally interesting is the actor who plays Zed: William Abadie, a.k.a. Antoine Lambert on Emily in Paris.
Okay, so it’s not technically the same character. But consider the following data points: Lambert basically turned Gabriel’s restaurant into a nightclub in season 2 of Emily in ParisDarren Star created both the shows. Obviously, Lambert is well cast as a charming nightlife impresario, so let’s just put two and two together here and say, yeah, Seema’s about to hook up with Emily’s coworker from Savoir!

In case you’re wondering where else you’ve seen Lambert, he also played Blair’s dad’s husband Roman on Gossip Girl…and he was a Prada store employee named Tony on an episode of the original SATC. Yes, this is his second role in the series. Justin Theroux played two characters on the show, as well. There are only so many men in Manhattan who can be photographed, so you will eventually have to double up!
Can’t wait to see what kind of international shenanigans he and Seema get into next week.
