Paullus was a consul in 34 BC and censor in 22 BC.

He was a grandson of Marcus Aemilius Lepidus and Appuleia through their son Lucius Aemilius Paullus and his wife. His paternal uncle Marcus Aemilius Lepidus served as a member of the Second Triumvirate. Paullus served as consul in 34 BC and censor in 22.[2] Paullus was in some way related to a Cassia.[3]

Paullus first married Cornelia (c. 54 BC-16 BC). With Cornelia, Paullus had three children: Lucius Aemilius Paullus (c. 37 BC-14 AD) the husband of Julia the Younger and consul in AD 1; Marcus Aemilius Lepidus (c. 30 BC-33 AD), consul in AD 6; and a daughter Aemilia Paulla (c. 22 BC). Aemilia was married twice: first to Lucius Munatius Plancus, consul in AD 13; second to Publius Memmius Regulus.

Cornelia was married only once, to the Paullus Aemilius Lepidus mentioned above who was censor in 22 BC.[10] Their children were:

1. Lucius Aemilius Paullus (b. before 29 BC), consul in AD 1; married his first cousin Julia the Younger.[11]
2. Marcus Aemilius Lepidus (b. before 24 BC), consul in AD 6.
3. Aemilia Paulli filia (b. 22 BC)

Paullus was widowed in 18 BC, the same year Cornelia's brother Publius Cornelius Lentulus Marcellinus was consul.[4] Not long after Cornelia's death, he married Claudia Marcella Minor, a daughter of Octavia the Younger, sister of the Roman emperor Augustus.[1] The marriage of Marcella and Paullus linked two honored republican houses and tied them closely to the imperial circle.[2] At some point after 11 BC, Marcella bore him a son,

1. Paullus Aemilius Regulus,[5] who later served as a quaestor during the rule of the Roman emperor Tiberius.[6]
