The Devil Wears Prada Premiere
The first time Stanley Tucci met Felicity Blunt, Emily’s eldest sister, was at the premiere of The Devil Wears Prada. At the time, Stanley was still married to his first wife, Kate Tucci, who was battling breast cancer. Sadly, Kate passed away in 2009 after 14 years of marriage and three children together.
According to Yahoo, Stanley recalled that Kate and Felicity talked at the premiere and he even has a photo of them together. He also became friends with Emily, who played his assistant in the movie.
Emily’s Wedding
Two years later, in 2010, Emily married actor John Krasinski at George Clooney’s Lake Como home in Italy. Stanley was invited to the wedding and reconnected with Felicity, who is a literary agent in London. The two hit it off and started dating.
According to Marie Claire, Emily had a hand in bringing them together. She said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter: “He came to our wedding and she was there. And I didn’t know they were going to hit it off so well.”
Stanley and Felicity’s Wedding
Stanley and Felicity tied the knot in 2012 in a star-studded affair. According to People, some of the attendees included Meryl Streep, Julianne Moore, Steve Buscemi (who was Stanley’s best man), Colin Firth, Ewan McGregor, and of course, Emily and John.
The couple welcomed two children together: son Matteo in 2015 and daughter Emilia in 2018. They joined Stanley’s three older children from his previous marriage: Isabel, Nicolo, and Camilla.
A Close-Knit Family
Stanley and Felicity have a close relationship with Emily and John and their two daughters, Hazel and Violet. They often spend holidays together and support each other’s careers.
According to People, Emily said that she “worships” her brother-in-law and praised his style and cooking skills. She also said that he is “an amazing husband” to her sister.
Stanley also gushed about his wife and sister-in-law in an interview with CBS Sunday Morning. He said: “I was lucky enough to marry into a really wonderful family. And my wife is just extraordinary. And my sister-in-law is amazing.”
The four of them also appeared together in a hilarious Instagram video that Stanley posted in December 2020. In the video, Stanley makes a Christmas cocktail while Felicity films him. Emily and John join him as his “helpers” by eating the garnishes.
The video ends with them wishing everyone happy holidays and laughing together. It’s clear that they have a lot of fun as a family.
