What John Krasinski's First Time Meeting Emily Blunt Was Really Like

There are two sides to the spectrum: you're either a die-hard dreamer of an ending where the actors that play Jim Halpert and Pam Beesly on "The Office" (John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer) are together, or you're a major lover of the adorable relationship between Krasinski and his real-life partner, the hilarious Emily Blunt. If you'd rather read about Fischer and Krasinski's relationship off-screen, we've got you covered. However, if you're the latter, then keep reading.

There's no denying that the marriage of Krasinski and Blunt made them one of Hollywood's most wholesome and witty husband-and-wife duos. The couple met in 2008 and quickly got engaged, marrying in 2010. Since then, they have welcomed two daughters, Hazel and Violet; moved across the country together; and jointly created a huge horror film franchise, "A Quiet Place." Seemingly spending most of their personal and professional lives together, it's nice to know Krasinski and Blunt never get sick of each other. The couple talk so highly of one another on talk shows and interviews, and they never stop gushing about their perfect family. So what was it like when this A-list couple first met? Well, it's not as magical and romantic as one may think for the two.

"It's kind of a sad, lame story," Emily Blunt revealed on "Late Night with Seth Meyers" of her first time meeting husband John Krasinski. "I was in a restaurant, he was in the restaurant. I was sitting with a mutual friend," Blunt told the host. She recalled how Krasinski, who was sitting with fellow actor Justin Theroux, left his table to greet their mutual friend and meet Blunt. "He just stood there and made me laugh," said Blunt. 

For Krasinski, it wasn't his first encounter with Blunt. In an interview with Glamour, the actor revealed that he has watched his wife's break-out movie, "The Devil Wears Prada," 75 times, admitting that she once caught him watching it when she stopped by his apartment while they were dating. "I'm sure she thought I was watching something completely inappropriate, and I actually chose to let her believe that than know that I had been watching 'The Devil Wears Prada,'" he quipped.

Krasinski has also admitted that he never thought his stunning wife would want to go on a second date with him. With that in mind, the actor decided to go all in and bring Blunt to a gun range for their first date. "I think that I was so sure that I would never end up with her because she'd be like, 'This is ridiculous, I can have anyone and not you,' that I was like, 'You know what, I'm gonna blow it right away,' and then that way you don't feel bad," Krasinski joked to Conan O'Brien on "Conan." His plan obviously didn't work, since the two stars are madly in love with a happy family and booming career together.
