The apple doesn't fall far from the tree! Emily Blunt and her mother, a former actress, step out in similar styles By JADE WATKINS PUBLISHED: 09:22 EST, 9 May 2012 | UPDATED: 01:39 EST, 10 May 2012 MAIL ON LINE

Her mother is a former star of the stage and screen.

And it appears as though Emily Blunt takes after her in more ways than one.

The 29-year-old actress was seen wearing a similar style to her mother Joanna as the pair took a stroll around New York City yesterday,

Laughing and smiling, the duo linked arms as the Oscar nominee showed her the sights and sounds of Manhattan.


Emily and Johanna's outfits were not that dissimilar.

The Devil Wears Prada star had slipped on a pair of skinny dark jeans, a cream knitted sweater and some leather buckled boots for the outing, while her mother opted for lighter denim and a beige wrap-around cardigan.

The two clearly had a lot to catch up on as they eagerly chatted throughout their journey.

Emily splits her time between living in the U.S and London with her husband The Office star John Krasinski.


Emily was born in Roehampton, London.

Her mother Joanna once enjoyed an acting career on stage and television before having Emily and her three other siblings.

Emily's father Oliver Simon Peter Blunt, QC, is barrister, one of the highest-profile barristers in the United Kingdom.
