Blake Lively recently shared a heartwarming story about her husband, Ryan Reynolds, during the early days of their relationship. Lively revealed that when they first started dating, Reynolds would send her a bouquet of flowers every week. Along with the flowers, Reynolds would always include a card with a funny or emotional message that referenced something special they had shared that week.
Lively described the gesture as a thoughtful and romantic gesture, emphasizing how much she appreciated the effort Reynolds put into making her feel special. The couple, who met on the set of 'Green Lantern' in early 2010, eventually tied the knot in September 2012.
Since then, Lively and Reynolds have welcomed four children together: daughters James, Inez, and Betty, as well as son Olin. Despite their high-profile careers, the couple has made a conscious effort to keep their family life private, rarely discussing their children in public.
Lively recently shared the sweet story while promoting her new movie, 'It Ends With Us,' in which she plays a florist named Lily Bloom. The actress has fully embraced the role by incorporating floral patterns into her wardrobe and discussing flowers during press interviews.
Reynolds, known for his role in 'Deadpool,' has also maintained a level of privacy when it comes to his family life. The couple even kept the name and sex of their youngest child a secret for over a year before Reynolds revealed the details in July.
Close friends of the couple, including Taylor Swift, have also played a role in their children's lives, with Swift describing herself as the children's godmother. Reynolds' 'Deadpool & Wolverine' director, Shawn Levy, also shared his pride in being named as the godfather of the couple's youngest child, Olin.
