Blunt was in a relationship with crooner Michael Buble for three years before meeting John in 2008 and marrying in an idyllic ceremony in Como Italy two years later.

They have two daughters – Hazel and Violet.

The “Devil Wears Prada” star revealed however that the start of her romance was unconventional as she explained a lunch with a friend was where it all began.

She said: ‘(Me and my friend) were discussing how much I was enjoying being single. And then (my friend) goes: ‘Oh, my God, there’s my friend John’. And that was it. We were engaged within 10 months, but I think we probably knew before that.”
