The actor has shared over a decade of married life with his actress wife, following a heartfelt proposal captured in a 27-minute-long video. Throughout the years, the couple has shared their special milestones online, giving fans a glimpse into their journey together.

“Jane the Virgin” star Justin Baldoni and his wife share not only two children but also a shared passion for acting. Beyond their life as partners and parents, the couple has collaborated on-screen several times, blending their personal and professional lives seamlessly.

Justin’s spouse has also joined him in front of the camera, appearing in the beloved dramedy “Jane the Virgin,” which aired from 2014 to 2019. Their creative partnership continued recently with the 2024 romantic film “It Ends with Us,” alongside Blake Lively.

His wife’s passion for acting extends far beyond their collaborations. Born and raised in Uppsala, Sweden, the actress discovered her love for the craft at an early age. Her talent was evident to those who knew her, including filmmaker James Ward Byrkit, who reflected on his early impressions of the movie star in an interview.

“[…] I met Emily not long after she moved from Sweden and she had an accent and I thought, ‘Soon as that accent goes away, she’s going to be a leading lady in American movies,'” he said. His prediction proved accurate as her skill and dedication propelled her to critical acclaim.

While she has shared the screen with her spouse, she earned recognition for her captivating performance as the female lead in the 2013 sci-fi thriller “Coherence.”

Emily Baldoni’s flourishing career eventually led her to a fateful encounter with Justin. Reflecting on their first meeting, he once shared, “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’d always dreamed of. And I just knew.”

Their love story took a heartfelt turn on April 13, 2013, when Justin proposed in a carefully planned, unforgettable way. At the restaurant where they had their first date, he orchestrated a private setup, complete with hidden cameras.

Pretending to run late, the California native had the actress seated in front of a TV that guided her through a touching journey — one that culminated in a proposal she would cherish forever.

The proposal was filled with emotion and thoughtful gestures. In the video, Emily can be seen tearing up as she held Justin’s hand while he expressed how she had made him a better man — a better son, brother, and friend.

Knowing how much her mother and sister meant to her, Justin revealed they were watching the moment unfold via Skype. However, the surprises didn’t end there. He briefly left the room and returned with Emily’s mother, whom he had flown in from Sweden.

The heartfelt reunion between mother and daughter added even more meaning to the moment before Emily turned her attention back to Justin to continue their proposal.

The proposal continued with heartfelt sincerity as Justin held Emily’s hands once more and told her, “Baby, I want to spend my life with you. You’re it.” He shared how deeply she inspired him to be a better person, adding, “I want to make you happy for the rest of my life.” But there was one more meaningful gesture to come.

Acknowledging her late father, Justin said, “I know your dad can’t be here, but I know he’s watching.” The video then showed him visiting her father’s grave, where he revealed, “I just asked your dad if I could marry you, and I hope he approves.”

Overcome with emotion, Justin knelt down and proposed. Emily, with joyful humor, responded, “Such a stupid question. Yes.” She helped him to his feet and sealed the moment with a kiss and a heartfelt embrace.

The proposal video, which captivated millions of viewers, reflected Justin’s creativity and attention to detail. The celebrity, whom Emily called “the master of surprises,” incorporated videos of two boy bands, complete with special effects, adding a fun and personal touch to the heartfelt moment.

The creativity and emotion of the proposal set the stage for what came next. In July 2013, the couple exchanged vows in a beautiful outdoor ceremony surrounded by close friends and family. The intimate occasion, once again captured on video, featured the pair sharing heartfelt promises.

After the wedding, Justin posted a photo with his nine groomsmen on Instagram, humorously acknowledging the large group. He expressed his deep love and gratitude for these “super-handsome, (slightly shorter than me), emotionally available, vulnerable, and dependable manly-men.”

Their journey continued to blossom, and in February 2015, Justin and Emily shared another milestone: they were expecting their first child. The couple revealed the joyful news to the “Jane the Virgin” cast and crew, capturing the moment on camera as everyone celebrated with overwhelming emotion and joy.

When their daughter arrived, Justin introduced her to the world with a heartfelt message, writing, “Welcome to the world sweet Maiya Grace.”

Their growing family brought more joy in May 2017, when Justin and Emily announced they were expecting their second child. Once again, they shared the news with the “Jane the Virgin” cast and crew, this time with the help of their daughter, who wore a t-shirt hinting at the pregnancy. The sweet moment was, of course, documented for posterity.

When their son arrived, they introduced him in an interview, saying, “Our little Maxwell Roland-Samuel Baldoni came into this world on Wednesday and showed us that it was possible for our hearts to double in size … again.”

In a 2019 magazine cover story, Justin expressed deep appreciation for Emily’s influence on their children, saying, “I hope they grow up and have much more of her than me.” However, he humorously added, “But I hope they have my sense of humor because I’m definitely funnier.”

Emily also praised Justin’s parenting, sharing, “Justin has an incredible way of bringing magic to the smallest moments.” She noted how their children’s eyes light up whenever he walks into the room.

Justin, who is committed to helping the homeless, went on a trip to Emily’s home country of Sweden and visited a local Filmstaden with his wife and kids. He reflected on how connecting with attendees and hearing their stories reminded him of why they brought their work to life.

Justin Baldoni and Emily’s journey is a beautiful blend of love, family, and purpose, shared openly with the world. Through their heartfelt milestones and dedication to meaningful causes, they continue to inspire others with authenticity and grace.
