John Krasinski and Emily Blunt

Actor and filmmaker John Krasinski has been named the Sexiest Man Alive 2024 by People Magazine. The actor is known for his role as the prank-loving paper salesman Jim Halpert in 'The Office' which ran for nine years, as the intense former Marine turned CIA agent in the series Jack Ryan or the director of the recently released film 'IF'. But John wasn't exactly sure what to think when he got honoured with the title of the Sexiest Man Alive 2024. He shared the news with his wife and actress Emily Blunt and revealed the promise she had made if he won the title. The couple has been married for 14 years and live in Brooklyn, America.

Talking to People magazine, John said that his wife Emily was very excited to hear the big news from him. Krasinski revealed that Blunt joked about making the cover of the magazine their house wallpaper if he ever received the title. "Do we have that on camera? Because that's like a binding contract, I think," he says. "My children will love that, it won't be weird at all."

Krasinski, 45, lives with his wife and two kids in Brooklyn. They have two daughters named Hazel, 10 and Violet, 8. The actor appreciates the life he has built with his wife Blunt. "It's that beautiful thing where when you're married to someone, you're constantly learning and changing and evolving," he says. "And I'm so lucky to go through all that with her."

Talking about if this title will change anything for him, he joked, "I think it's going to make me do more household chores. After this comes out, she'll be like, ‘All right, that means you're going to really earn it here at home.' "
