John Krasinski and Emily Blunt want their kids to think they’re just normal people.

According to BroBible, Blunt, who has two young children, recently spoke with The Sunday Times about raising kids as a famous couple, and said the goal is for her kids to “remain oblivious.” (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

Blunt told the publication the following about an interaction with her daughter Hazel:

It’s a strange thing to navigate, you know. [She] came home the other day and we were in the kitchen and she goes, ‘Are you famous?’ Someone at school had clearly said it. I was like, ‘Um … not really, I don’t think I am. Did someone say that to you, Haze?’ She said, ‘Yeah,’ but then she wouldn’t divulge much more, you know, but it’s weird. It’s weird.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news here, but I’m not sure Krasinski and Blunt have much hope of hiding their fame from their two kids, who are six and four.

John Krasinski played one of the most iconic characters in TV history when he was Jim on “The Office,” and he’s only gotten more famous since then.

At the same time, Emily Blunt is a bonafide Hollywood star. They’re one of the most famous power couples on the planet.

How do you keep that a secret from anyone with access to the internet or TV? The answer is that you can’t.

They both better just learn to embrace it because they’re mega-famous, and that’s not changing anytime soon.
