Who Is Stanley Tucci’s Wife, Felicity Blunt?

Reported by Harper's Bazaar.

Stanley Tucci's return as Nigel in the upcoming Devil Wears Prada sequel has everyone talking—but the 2006 original gave him something far more valuable than an iconic role. It introduced him to his wife, Felicity Blunt, though their actual love story didn't unfold until years later. What makes their connection interesting isn't just the Hollywood narrative; it's who Felicity actually is beyond the famous last name and the celebrity cooking videos she helps produce.

Felicity is a literary agent at Curtis Brown Group, the prestigious U.K. agency, where she represents authors in both fiction and non-fiction after initially training as a barrister. She's selective about her clients—her official bio emphasizes seeking "unique stories and smart voices" from writers who've built worlds she genuinely believes in. She's also worked on Tucci's two food memoirs, Taste and What I Ate in One Year, bringing the same discerning eye to her husband's projects.

The Krasinski Wedding That Changed Everything

Tucci and Felicity first met at the 2006 TDWP premiere—she was there as Emily Blunt's sister, he was married to Kate Spath-Tucci (who died of breast cancer in 2009). The real spark came at Emily's 2010 Lake Como wedding to John Krasinski. That weekend reconnection led to dating, then marriage in 2012 at Middle Temple Hall in London. According to Harper's Bazaar, the celebration featured Steve Buscemi as best man and guests like Meryl Streep and Colin Firth. Felicity wore Nanette Lepore; Tucci chose Hugo Boss.

They've built a blended family with two children together—Mateo (born 2015) and Emilia (born 2018)—alongside Tucci's three adult children from his first marriage. In a BBC interview, Tucci credited Felicity with transforming their household: "She's been so incredible taking on a widower and three children whose mother died. If anybody made things better for all of us, it's her." He also revealed he nearly sabotaged their relationship over their 21-year age gap, admitting he'd tried breaking things off because he feared feeling old. That she stayed anyway says everything about what Tucci recognized early on: this was genuinely special.

Felicity's quietly impressive career, her steely judgment about good writing, and her willingness to build a messy, real family unit with Tucci—none of it requires the Blunt surname or a camera rolling.
