The former is famous for portraying Jim Halpert in the NBC sitcom, The Office while the latter for her roles in films like The Devil Wears Prada, Edge Of Tomorrow, A Quiet Place, and others.
While Blunt and Krasinski do not shy away from displaying their affection for each other, the actors are pretty low-key when it comes to revealing information about their daughters, Hazel and Violet. The Hollywood couple is very conscientious about keeping their kids out of the spotlight.
John doesn’t post about his daughters on his social media (and Emily doesn’t even have social media!), and the girls have so far never accompanied their parents to red carpets or other events. The two do not have any sons. The celebrity parents though time and again often talk about how much their girls mean to them and a bit of a sneak peek of how they are growing up. And what they have shared so far is both adorable and hilarious.

Emily Blunt and John Krasinski

John even said on television that it was more like love at first sight for him. He knew that she was all that he needed at the very moment. Both Emily and John thought of giving each other a chance in the same year. Hence, they went on their first date on a gun range in November of the same year. Strange first date, but that went well.
So, not long after their first date, John asked Emily to marry him in August 2009. Both John and Emily could not hold their happiness and let it out through their eyes. Upon seeing them crying in joy, the people around them couldn’t hold back their tears. But in the end, the acceptance was unforgettable. John and Emily were just an event away from being man and wife.
Later, on 10 July 2010, the couple promised to be together for life at a private ceremony in Como, Italy. Instead, the couple tied the knot at the former home of American actor George Clooney. The family resides in Brooklyn Heights, a neighborhood of New York City. When they have time, the family travels to the UK. Emily’s family lives in the United Kingdom.
