Emily Blunt gained her first Oscar nomination at this year’s Academy Awards gala for her performance as Kitty Oppenheimer, in Christopher Nolan’s drama. She just missed out on the Best Supporting Actress award, which went to Da’Vine Joy Randolph (The Holdovers). Her electric portrayal of Robert Oppenheimer’s wife did however see her win other industry gongs, including the Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture at the 2024 Screen Actors Guild Awards and Best Supporting Actress at the Satum Awards.

Recently turned 41, Emily Blunt is one of the most versatile performers of her generation. Born in southwest London, the British actress made her professional debut when she was still a student. She did so in ‘Bliss’, the musical written by Paul Sellar that was presented at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2000.

What is Emily Blunt’s net worth?

In terms of Emily Blunt’s net worth, it is estimated that actress is worth around $80 million. Curiously, the figure is said to be about the same as her husband’s fortunes.

Her first media-followed relationship took place in 2005 with Canadian singer Michael Buble. Both met during the ‘Logie Awards’ and had a three-year relationship in which they lived together in a house in Vancouver. The relationship came to an end due to an “incompatibility of agendas”.

In 2008, she fell in love with actor John Krasinski with whom she walked down the aisle two years later in Como, Italy. Shortly after, Emily Blunt and her husband welcomed their firstborn, Hazel. In 2016, their second daughter together was born and they named her Violet.
