Are Jenna Fischer And John Krasinski Friends In Real Life?

Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski may be perfectly suited spouses on The Office, but in reality, they're just good friends. Fischer admits that it was a strange situation to be intimate with Krasinski since they do have a close friendship bond. "It is the strangest thing to have a long-term fictional love interest. It's a type of relationship that is very intimate, and it's very powerful, but it's fictional. I mean, there is a part of me that is Pam, and there's a part of him that is Jim, and that part of me is in love with that part of him. But in real life, we are just friends," she told NPR.

While the actors may not have found love together off-screen, they do have parallel love stories. Screen Rant reports that Fischer met her husband, actor Lee Kirk, in 2008 around the same time that Krasinski met his wife, actress Emily Blunt. Ironically, they both also married their partners in 2010. In addition, the duo has even more in common. They're both die-hard hockey fans. Fischer is a St. Louis Blues fanatic, while Krasinski roots for his hometown team, the Boston Bruins.

It appears that the friendship that Fischer and Krasinski forged on the set of The Office has carried on through the years. Perhaps we'll even get to see them work together again in the future.
