The TV star spoke exclusively with HELLO! during The Diplomat's red carpet, hosted by PaleyFest on October 14 in New York City.

The actress explained that she originally had plans to attend the Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2027 fashion show during Paris Fashion Week with Matthew, however, he wasn't able to attend last minute.
She had an open plus one spot and decided to bring Willa along for a fun girls day instead.
Keri shared: "Well, she's never come to anything like that with me before, but Matthew was supposed to go and last minute couldn't, and I said, 'Can I bring Willa?' And he said, 'Of course.'"

For the fashion show on October 6, Keri donned a tailored white long-sleeve shirt, with '80s shoulder pads, a layered black mini-skirt, black heels, a Louis Vuitton purse and a sleek bun.
Willa sported a red mini-dress, complete with a zipper down the middle and buttons for decor, a red Louis Vuitton purse, matching black heels, and a low ponytail.
Willa received quite the experience seeing an exquisite fashion show, and enjoying a luxurious hotel during their stay in the city of love, thanks to her mom.

Keri made sure to not allow Willa to get caught up in the finer things in life, as she joked to HELLO!: "And I just said to her, 'We will never stay in a room this nice… again. So don't get used to this.'"
Like most tourists who visit Paris, Willa also had a difficult time parting ways from the magical city, full of culture.
Keri recalled: "And we were leaving and she said, 'I don't want to leave Paris.' I was like, 'No one wants to leave Paris.'" She concluded: "Get your backpack, let's go.'"

During the red carpet, Keri teased what viewers can expect from season four of The Diplomat, which airs on October 15 on Netflix.
She revealed: "There's a lot of twists and turns, and I think the main thing that Debora [Cahn] told me, which I stole, which is, what happens when your boss asks you to do something you don't agree with? Not only you don't agree with [it], but it might be illegal. How do you manage that?"
