Emily Blunt and John Krasinski Welcome Second Child!

Move over, America.


You now need to share your birthday with the offspring of one of our favorite famous couples. Sort of.



Indeed, Emily Blunt and John Krasinski just welcomed their second child into the world!


She doesn’t have the same birthday as the United States, but the world has now been made known about her existence on July Fourth.


That’s kind of the same thing.


“What better way to celebrate the 4th… than to announce our 4th family member!!!” Krasinski Tweeted this morning, adding:


“2 weeks ago we met our beautiful daughter Violet #Happy4th.”


The Girl on the Train star and The Office alum are already parents to a girl named Hazel.

It’s too early to tell how little Hazel is adjusting to life as a big sister, but this is what Blunt told E! News about the prospect back in April:


“She’s sort of coming around to it.


“She sort of dismissed the idea initially and she just responded with, ‘Nope.’ ‘Nope,’ flat out! We’ve bought her every single ‘I’m a big sister’ book that’s out there and she’s a bookworm, so she’s coming around.”



Blunt and Krasinski got married in 2010.


A rep for the stars confirmed that the latter was expecting baby number-two in January; about a month later, Blunt debuted her baby bump at the 2016 Academy Awards.


“The first pregnancy is the most self-indulgent thing in the world because you get massages and prenatal yoga and hypnotherapy CDs,” Blunt told C Magazine this spring.


How so?


“During this one I forget that I’m even pregnant. I’m hoisting my 2-year-old around!” she explained.


We send our very best wishes to two stars who appear to be as normal as any couple in Hollywood. 


Welcome to the world, Violet!
