Krasinski is engaged
Krasinski at the Liberty Hotel in June
Newton actor John Krasinski, whose character Jim on "The Office" will marry Jenna Fischer's Pam on television this fall, got engaged in real life to "Devil Wears Prada" actress Emily Blunt, according to the actor's rep. The two have been dating since last year.
In June, when Krasinski was in Boston to promote his movie "Away We Go," in which he played Maya Rudolph's boyfriend, he confessed to us that he was excited to make a movie about a happy, successful relationship -- a love story where no one cheats and there's a happy ending. Now we know why.
