Who Is Melia Kreiling? Get to Know the New Addition to Emily in Paris Season 3

Camille is such a headstrong, fierce character. And I feel like she really meets her match with Sofia. I don't see that as much with Camille and Gabriel, which makes me think fans are going to love the two of you together.

From your mouth to the TV god's ears. She directs things at her in a straightforward way. I think Camille is excited by that. Sofia just goes, “Hey, I'm here, and I like you and I'm not looking around.”

At the very end when we find out that Camille is pregnant, my first thought was, Is it Sofia’s baby? [Laughs.] I mean, plot twist!

That would be a twist. [Laughs.]

That would be a twist. But it ends on such a cliff-hanger. What was your reaction when you saw that final episode?

I almost had the same reaction, like, wait, is it mine? How'd I do that? [Laughs.] But I finished the episode going, Oh, shit. What on earth is going on here? How are they going to do this? But I think it's very cool how Camille handles it, how Camille handles the wedding. I think that's a very cool moment for that character. 

Things are complicated. So I use my own reaction of reading that to feed into what Sofia was trying to do in that one last scene there.

Do you think Sofia knows that Camille's pregnant since we only hear about the baby when Gabriel tells Emily?

Oh yeah. I think so. Although don't quote me on this, in case I come back in season four and Sofia ends up saying, “Wait, you're pregnant?” And then there's this interview from a year ago that says, I think she knows. [Laughs.] We can be wrong about our own characters too.

Let’s do some of our rapid-fire questions. You were born in Switzerland, right?

Yeah, but online it says I'm Swiss and I'm not actually Swiss at all. I don't speak German or French. I was born in Geneva because my parents happened to be working there at the time. And my mom's water broke, so I was born there. But the Swiss don't give you citizenship just for being born there. Although it's a beautiful place to be born. I'll absolutely take that. Great chocolate, great watches, great mountains, great people. I wish I was half Swiss, but I'm not.

How long were you in Switzerland for, as a baby?

Like eight months. My parents divorced pretty quickly, so then I moved to Athens with my mom, who's Greek. Then my dad would pick me up and take me to the States, so I was pulling double duty. But it was really fun, and honestly, it never felt anything except a really cool adventure. So half Greek, half American, born in Switzerland, but not Swiss.

Where did you study acting?

In London, at the London School of Dramatic Arts in South Kensington.
