Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively: The love story of a Hollywood couple

If there are couples in the world who make us believe in love, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively definitely take the first place on this list (check out the jokes they make with each other on social networks). But the age of their marriage is already more than ten years, but it is clear that they have not lost either their sense of humor or their sense of love. And today they are raising four daughters, remaining one of the few couples who have not succumbed to the wave of divorces that have swept through Hollywood this year. Today Ryan Reynolds turns 47 and on this day we remember the love story of the spouses!

familiar

Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively met on the set of the movie “Green Lantern” in 2010 – the actors played the main roles in the film. At the time, Blake was dating Leonardo DiCaprio (yes, they had been together for five months, and sources close to the couple even said things were heading towards marriage) and Ryan was married to Scarlett Johansson.

He later said in an interview that even while working together on the film, they were able to find a common language and become friends. And news soon emerged that the actors had broken things off with their (already) exes and then started dating almost immediately. And to say that this novel develops rapidly is to say nothing. For example, did you like that the couple bought their first apartment together just a few months later? However, rumors about the relationship of the stars were confirmed in the fall of 2011, when paparazzi increasingly began to catch Blake Lively near the house of her lover, and then began to capture them together.

secret wedding

On September 9, 2012, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively played a secret wedding at the Boone Hall Plantation estate in South Carolina – by the way, the cult “The Notebook” was also filmed there. All details of the celebration, of course, were kept secret, and only relatives and friends from the close circle of the newlyweds attended the ceremony – 35 people in total. But the actress has been known to walk down the aisle in a Marchesa gown embroidered with rose gold threads – which she later said she accidentally poked a hole in with a sparkler during a performance at singer Florence Welch’s wedding.

A year after the wedding, the couple’s first official appearance was at the Sound of Change Live 2013 event in London. However, their appearance on the red carpet of the Met Gala a year later, in 2014, did not attract as much attention as before.

After Blake Lively appeared on stage in a V-neck Gucci dress complete with Lorraine Schwartz jewelry, the couple was also known as the most stylish couple in Hollywood.

family life

In this marriage, both Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively became parents for the first time. And more than once! They had a daughter named James on December 16, 2014, a second daughter named Inez on September 28, 2016, a third daughter named Betty on October 4, 2019, and most recently a fourth daughter in February of this year. (he is in no hurry to reveal the name of his wife). Meanwhile, the couple did not announce the choice of name for their first daughter for a long time, but a little more than a month ago the actress dotted the i’s and shared in an interview that James was named in honor of her grandfather. James Chester Reynolds. When he was born, he had been struggling with Parkinson’s disease for many years and died before his grandchild was one year old.

In fact, spouses rarely share details of their personal lives (“If you just ask me to explain my relationship, words will not accurately convey my true feelings,” Ryan Reynolds said in an interview), the same goes for their children. For example, the public saw the two eldest daughters of the actors only in 2016 at the inauguration of Ryan Reynolds’ personal star on the Walk of Fame.

The secret of a strong brother

Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively often say that they are not only a couple but also best friends. They also share that they do not act in films at the same time, considering their status as Hollywood stars: “Blake and I both grew up in large families, so it is very important for us to maintain a warm and happy climate. “So that the children can feel good at home.” So, for example, while the actress was filming Deadpool, Blake Lively took a break from her film career to devote time to her family. And this summer, the tabloids were full of photos of the actress from London, where she arrived with her children on the set of the third Deadpool.
