The actor first met his now-wifeEmily Bluntback in 2008, at a restaurant with mutual friends (viaParade).

“I was in a restaurant.

He was in the restaurant.

He did not eat.

He just stood there and made me laugh,” Blunt revealed.

“I was full stalker-status.

I was like, ‘Hey, you want to go out on a date with me?'”

Clearly Blunt is glad that he did.

“Meeting John really changed my life,” she said.

“When I feel the support that I have from him, I feel invincible.

“A roast chicken, who doesn’t love roast chicken?

The roast chicken I love is Ina Garten’s roast chicken.

Blunt further explained exactly what’s so appealing about the dish.

“Lemon, garlic, onions up the chicken, thyme, salt and pepper, all that.

You scatter onions around the chicken, but you pack them in really tight into the tray.

Oh my God, it’s divine.

It’s really sticky and yummy.”

Blunt’s instincts were correct.

Not long after, Blunt and Krasinski were engaged.

The pair wed in July 2010 at George Clooney’s estate on Lake Como in Italy (viaBrides).

It was an ending befitting their adorable beginnings.
