From “stalker” jokes to a “lame” meet-cute, Krasinski and Blunt keep the humor alive
John Krasinski and Emily Blunt are known for their incredible on-screen chemistry, but off-screen, they also share a playful and lighthearted relationship. From joking about being a “stalker” to teasing each other about their quirks, the couple never fails to keep the laughter going.
A “Stalker” Beginnings
In 2016, Krasinski playfully admitted to being Blunt’s “stalker” before they started dating. He confessed to watching her film “The Devil Wears Prada” a whopping 75 times. “Embarrassingly, I think we had only been dating a couple weeks when she stopped by…and I didn’t know she was stopping by,” he said in an interview. Krasinski even pretended to watch something inappropriate just to avoid admitting he was watching Blunt’s movie again.
Years later, Krasinski brought up the “stalker” joke again on “The Graham Norton Show,” proving that their humor is timeless.
A “Lame” Meet-Cute
Blunt, on the other hand, described their first encounter as a “sad, lame story.” She revealed that they met in a restaurant through a mutual friend. Krasinski abandoned his friend to approach Blunt, making her laugh from the moment he stood there. While it may not be a grand love story, their connection was undeniable.
Joking About Divorce
After working together on their first film, “The Quiet Place,” Krasinski joked with People magazine about the possibility of announcing their divorce. He playfully acknowledged the challenges of working with your spouse but reassured that the experience only strengthened their bond.
The Unforgettable Jacket
Blunt shared a hilarious anecdote about a jacket she wore on their first date in 2008. She described it as “terrible” and admitted to keeping it despite its flaws. Krasinski even joked that he sent her a memo after the date, advising her not to wear the jacket if she wanted a second date.
Amy Schumer’s Friendly Jab
Comedian Amy Schumer couldn’t resist poking fun at the couple’s relationship when she praised their film “A Quiet Place Part II” on Instagram. Krasinski playfully responded, acknowledging Schumer for “blowing up our whole marriage spot.”
