Emily Blunt Told The Story Of How She Moved In With John Krasinski And, Of Course, It's Hilarious

"I think it's the best way to do it — just to sneak-attack them, rather than turn up with trunks."

Emily Blunt and John Krasinski have been together for 12 years now and are basically a golden couple of Hollywood.

Yep, that's right: The pair first met back in 2008, and it was pretty much love at first sight.

"It was one of those things where I wasn't really looking for a relationship, and I was thinking I'm going to take my time in LA," John said in 2011. "Then I met her and I was so nervous. I was like, 'Oh god, I think I'm going to fall in love with her.' As I shook her hand I went, 'I like you.'"

As for Emily, she revealed she was in a restaurant talking about how great it was to be single when John walked in. "That was it," she said. "We were engaged within 10 months, but I think we probably knew before that."

Now, the couple has set up base in New York and share two children together, daughters Hazel and Violet.

If you look up "couple goals" in the dictionary, there's a picture of Emily and John. I'm not lying! Look it up for yourself!

Anyway, in a recent interview with Harper's Bazaar UK, Emily briefly spoke about the beginning of her relationship with John, hilariously revealing that she "sneak-attacked" him by moving in bit by bit.

"I'd just bought a place in London and was going to live there with my sister," Emily explained. "I didn't ever see it as a move to the US, but gradually more and more of my stuff just accumulated at [John's] house, and then suddenly I was living in LA."

Basically giving her advice for moving in with a boyfriend, Emily added: "I think it's the best way to do it — just to sneak-attack them, rather than turn up with trunks."

All jokes aside, she sweetly added: "But I never really felt at home until we moved to the East Coast. We've found our place in the world."

Emily also revealed that she and John love cooking roast dinners on Sundays (a fantastic British tradition that John is now in favour of) and invite over some of their actor friends, like Sienna Miller and Emily Morti­mer.

"We get together for roasts and rotate who does it," Emily said, revealing that John was angry when they invited fellow Americans and they left too early.

She added: "[John] loves the whole ceremony of it – that it's a four­-, five-hour affair, and the wine gets popped at 11:30am when you start cooking."

But, if you want to be invited to a Blunt-Krasinski roast dinner, don't call it by the wrong name! "It's not brunch," Emily said, referencing previous guests who'd called it so. "Those people are uninvited now."
