Lily and Ashley were dressed casually, both wearing Nike sneakers as they shared a seat in a chair in a dressing room. Lily wore light blue jeans and a dyed sweatshirt, while Ashley rocked purple leggings and a lavender hoodie.
Both women had perfectly coiled brunette curls in their hair, with Ashley wearing two clips on either side of her bangs. In one image their arms are in the air as their mouths gape open with glee. In a second shot they hug each other with teeth-flashing smiles.
Ashley added to the over 700 comments with, 'When you say "you're crying" you're def talking to me and it's def true. Couldn't love you any more. Any more* ❤️'
After a successful first season, it was announced toward the end of last year that Emily in Paris would return with a second. Filming began in May and now, three months later, it's wrapped.

Now Collins will play the role of Polly Pocket in a new live-action movie from Lena Dunham. The 32-year-old actress will take on the role of the titular miniature doll in an upcoming movie which Girls creator Dunham is both writing and directing.
Lily will also produce the movie in addition to playing the lead role, which will see her bring the famous character, who first captured kids' hearts in the late 1980s, to life on the big screen. The film will center on a young girl and a pocket-sized woman who form a friendship, although further plot details and castings are not yet known.
In a statement, Lily said, 'As a child who was obsessed with Polly Pocket, this is a real dream come true and I can't wait to bring these tiny toys to the big screen.'
The film is being produced with Mattel Films alongside Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM), as well as Lena's production company, Good Things Going. Robbie Brenner and Kevin McKeon will oversee the project for Mattel Films, while Sandino Moya-Smith and Winnie Carrillo will head things up for MGM, and Good Thing Going's Liz Watson and Michael P. Cohen will serve as executive producers.
Smooches: 'Girls' creator Lena Dunham says she's 'thrilled' to be bringing Polly Pocket to life with 'brilliant' Lily Collins; Lena and boyfriend Luis Felber at a Sundance Film Festival screening, 2021
Lena, 35, has said she's 'thrilled' to be bringing the project to life, and said she's keen to make the movie 'smart' and 'playful' in order to speak to young women 'without condescension.'
She added in her own statement, Polly Pocket was responsible for countless hours of childhood escapism for me. Polly gave me a tiny world of magic and autonomy to narrate, so it's pretty poetic to be tackling these same ideas now as a director collaborating with the brilliant Lily Collins, Robbie Brenner, Mattel and MGM. I'm so thrilled to bring to bear both my love of this historic property and also my deep-seated belief that young women need smart, playful films that speak to them without condescension.'
The film does not yet have a release date.
