All eyes were on Emily Blunt at the BAFTAs on Sunday, February 18th; not only because she looked incredible in her crystal-embellished cutout Elie Saab gown, but because of who she walked the red carpet with!
The 40-year-old Oppenheimer actress very noticeably brought her parents Joanna and Oliver Blunt along with her instead of husband John Krasinski, who is usually her date at big awards ceremonies and glamorous red carpet events.
Emily Blunt Attends BAFTAs With Her Parents, Not Her Husband
The A Quiet Place star and her husband, who have been married since July 2010, last walked the red carpet together at the Critics Choice Awards on January 14th, where Emily wore a jaw-dropping scarlet Armani Privé gown.
A few days before, they attended the Golden Globe Awards together, and contributed to one of the first A-list viral videos of the year.

Emily Blunt And John Krasinski Go Viral At The Golden Globes For Seemingly Talking About 'Divorce'
If you'll recall, the couple – who are often referred to as "couple goals" – sent the internet into a frenzy when lip readers seemed to think they were talking about 'divorce' in a now viral video from the Golden Globes.
While posing for pictures on the red carpet and talking casually with each other, some fans seemed to think the 44-year-old The Office actor said: "I can't wait for divorce."

However, more lip readers have since chimed in to try and put an end to that theory. TikTok lip reader @ninacelested thought Blunt said, "It's chilly here, right?" to which her husband replied, "Can't wait 'til we're indoors. It's windy." Indoors definitely seems to have similar lip movements to divorce, so we can see where the confusion came from!
The couple did reportedly see the funny side of the rumors, with a source telling Us Weekly at the time: "There are no issues with Emily and John. They are not talking about divorce." The source added: "They think the rumors are funny and ridiculous." While we still don't know the official reason for Krasinski not walking down the red carpet with his wife on Sunday night, we can safely assume that it *wasn't* because there's trouble in paradise.
