Justin Baldoni is marking over a decade of marriage with his wife, Emily Baldoni. On Saturday, July 27, the 40-year-old actor, known for his role in Jane the Virgin, took to Instagram to celebrate 11 years of marriage to Emily, who is 39.
In his post, Justin shared a quote from poet Rumi, writing: “Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I’ll meet you there.”
The post also featured a touching photo of Justin and Emily enjoying a tender moment together. They are seen scrunching their noses and pressing their faces together while standing on a city street.
“Happy 11 years my love,” Justin concluded his caption, tagging Emily. Since their marriage, the Baldonis have openly shared their relationship and affection for each other on social media.
Their engagement in 2013 became widely known through a viral video Justin posted, which included a lip-sync performance and a flash mob, amassing over 14 million views on YouTube.
Later that year, the couple married in a ceremony in Corona, California, and have since welcomed two children: Maiya Grace, 9, and Maxwell Roland-Samuel, 6.
In 2019, Justin expressed his gratitude for Emily’s influence on his life and their children’s lives.
“I hope they grow up and have much more of her than me,” said the star of It Ends with Us, adding, “But I hope they have my sense of humor because I’m definitely funnier.”
Emily also praised Justin, saying, “Justin has an incredible way of bringing magic to the smallest moments. The kids’ eyes light up whenever he comes into the room.”
Last month, Justin revealed on social media that he had experienced a health scare, leading to a week-long hospital stay due to an infection.
“Nothing like an infection and a week at the hospital to put everything into perspective,” he wrote in his Instagram post on June 10. “God is so good. On the mend and feeling grateful.”
He expressed his appreciation for those who supported him during his hospital stay, including the medical staff and his loved ones.
“Thank you to the incredible team of doctors and nurses at St. John’s. Your dedication and compassion were extraordinary.
To the friends and family who knew I was here — thank you for your prayers, visits, and for cheering me up,” he wrote, accompanying the post with a photo of his family lying in bed with him.
Justin ended the post with a special thank you to Emily: “And to my wife, my soulmate — who is so stubborn she wouldn’t leave my side and slept on a bench… I love the s— out of you. Forever.”
