The pair share daughters Hazel Grace, eight, and Violet, six.
In a new interview, Krasinski, 43, explained that he and Blunt have a strong bond after enjoying 12 years of marriage together.
“I wouldn’t be anywhere in my life without her,” he said.
The Office actor continued: “On a daily basis, but certainly career-wise, as a dad, she pushes me to be better every single day at everything I do.
“I look forward to the next day cause I know it’ll be better than the one before,” he told Parade.com.
The latest instalment of the action-thriller series Tom Clancy’sJack Ryan has returned for its long-awaited third season. Krasinski will reprise his role as Jack Ryan.
In previous interviews, Krasinski has revealed that he is a superfan of his wife, who he starred alongside in A Quiet Place.
“It’s really that we just got lucky,” Krasinski told People of their relationship.
He continued: “I don’t know the formula to it, but I think she’s hilarious, extremely talented, and I’m definitely her No. 1 fan.”
“I think when you commit your life to anything like that it changes everything. All of the cliches are true,” he said.
In a 2018 interview with The Independent, Krasinski said Blunt was the “secret ingredient” to his success.
Opening up about directing A Quiet Place, which was the actor’s first studio film, he said: “I was originally just going to star and Emily told me I had to direct it.
“She knew it was a huge opportunity for me, and in the madness she just let me be myself. I honestly feel I wouldn’t have this career if I hadn’t met her, because she’s taught me so much about how to go about the business. She’s been my secret ingredient.”
