Emily Blunt and her husband John Krasinski (who played Jim in The Office US version) welcomed their second daughter into the world earlier this year and have opened up about life after giving birth.

Emily and John are parents to Hazel, two, and Violet, five months, and The Girl on the Train actress has previously revealed that she forgot she was even pregnant during her second pregnancy because she was “hoisting” her daughter Hazel around.

And now the stylish actress has revealed that after she gave birth to Violet she didn’t have a shower for a week: “After we got home from hospital, I didn’t shower for a week, and then John and I were like, ‘Let’s go out for dinner.’

“I could last only about an hour because my boobs were exploding. When the milk first comes in, it’s like a tsunami.

“But we went, just to prove to ourselves that we could feel normal for a second,” she told In Style magazine.

Cute!

Emily also revealed, “There have been no physical attacks or suffocations,” with her two daughter because Hazel is either disinterested in her little sister or there’s “moments of sheer passion.”

It has also been announced that Emily has been cast as Mary Poppins in the latest instalment which will see the magical nanny help the family rediscover the joy and wonder missing in their lives.

The movie will be in cinema on Christmas Day in 2018. We can’t wait!
