Justin Baldoni knew instantly that wife Emily Baldoni was The One.
“One of the things I learned from my mom was trusting my intuition, something I wish more men would tap into,” the Jane the Virgin alum told Makers in an October 2017 interview. “I had made the same mistake so many times, searching for something in a package that I thought I would want. When I met Emily, it was unlike all my other experiences. She had, like, a depth and a grace and this quiet strength that I think I always dreamed of and I just knew.”
After several years of dating, Justin proposed to Emily in April 2013 at the Blu Jam Cafe, which is the same restaurant where they had their first date. The special moment, which subsequently went viral on YouTube, featured an epic 27-minute video of proposal ideas. The pair wed three months later.
Justin and Emily went on to welcome daughter Maiya and son Maxwell in 2015 and 2017, respectively.
“Adulting is hard. Can we just be kids again? Emily and I will spend [an] next hour [in the evening] catching up on some work, and then it’s mommy and daddy time,” Justin exclusively told Us Weekly in October 2021 of the couple’s nighttime routine. “The rest is none of your business.”
