John Krasinski's reaction to Emily Blunt on Oscars red carpet is melting people's hearts

Oscars viewers are flooding to social media in awe of John Krasinski and Emily Blunt's appearance on the red carpet.

The A Quiet Place duo - who are also married and have been since 2010 - took to the carpet at the 96th Academy Awards ceremony last night (March 10).

And their interaction, particularly that of Krasinski with Blunt, has left viewers all saying the same thing. Prepare to feel a tug at your heart strings:

Blunt was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in 2023 release Oppenheimer directed by Christopher Nolan, starring as Katherine 'Kitty' Oppenheimer, Robert Oppenheimer's wife.

And from the moment she stepped on the red carpet alongside her husband, the 41-year-old wowed fans wearing a sparkly ivory floor-length Schiaparelli gown.

And it would appear her presence similarly wowed Krasinski who, in footage from the event, can be seen standing back to give Blunt her moment in front of the cameras, gazing at his wife before then widening his eyes and shaking his head almost in disbelief or as if to shake himself out of staring.

Blunt then beckons him over and the pair laugh at each other and the whole interaction has caused viewers to swoon.

Taking to X, fans of the duo can't get over their interaction with one another on the carpet.

One user said: "John Krasinski being in awe of Academy Award nominee Emily Blunt."

"The way he loves her makes me fall for him all the more. I adore them together," another added.

A third commented: "John Krasinski knows how lucky he is."

And a fourth wrote: "Tbh i’d react exactly like john krasinski if i was married to emily blunt."

And the adoration only intensified after viewers spotted the pair yet again, moments before the award for Best Supporting Actress was announced.

A clip of the couple during the award for Best Supporting Actress being announced shows Krasinski holding onto Blunt's hand and giving it a squeeze in support - the award going on to be won by Da'Vine Joy Randolph for her role in The Holdovers.

A X user wrote: "They make a great couple."

Thankfully, it would seem any silly rumors about Blunt and Krasinski's relationship being on the rocks have subsequently been well and truly squashed by their Oscars appearance - not that they need to prove anything to anyone anyway - the couple having become the subject of an avalanche of speculation online after last year's Golden Globes.
