Emily Blunt was visibly stunned to win Best Supporting Actress at the 2019 SAG Awards Sunday night (January 27) for her role in A Quiet Place—as was her husband, John Krasinski, who teared up during her acceptance speech.
“Oh my goodness me. Guys, that truly has completely blown my slicked hair back,” Blunt said in her speech. “Thank you so, so, so much. I am so moved and completely lost for words and unprepared. I am going to share this completely with my husband, John Krasinski, because the entire experience of doing this with you has completely pierced my heart directly.”
That’s when Krasinski started tearing up, and the whole room ruptured in applause. “You are a stunning filmmaker. I’m so lucky to be with you and to have done this film with you,” Blunt continued. “Thank you for giving me the part. You would have been in major trouble if you hadn’t. So you really didn’t have an option, but thank you. And thank you to the two little poems in our life, our daughters, Hazel and Violet, who will have to be at least 45 before they can see this film, but they’ll be proud of you nonetheless.”

Take a look at Krasinski’s face here. He’s such a proud husband!
In fact, he was proud of Blunt the whole evening. “Honored to be on the arm of this double nominee tonight! #SAGawards,” he tweeted alongside a selfie the couple took. (Blunt was also nominated for Best Actress for her role in Mary Poppins Returns.)
This was such a sweet moment:
And the way he’s cheering for her as she walked up to accept her award! This is the type of love and support we all deserve in 2019.
Krasinski directed and also starred alongside Emily Blunt in A Quiet Place, last spring’s thriller that was a huge hit both with critics and the box office.
