From their red-carpet appearances to interviews, fans cannot seem to have enough of the two.

Ryan Reynolds Lies About His Marriage to Wife Blake Lively

Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively met each other on set of their critical flop, Green Lantern. But they only began dating a year after, in 2011, and got married in 2012. While from the outside it does look like things went pretty fast, the two stars share an impeccable friendship that makes their relationship seem effortless and rock-solid.

Parents to four kids now, James, Inez, Betty, and Olin, the couple continues to share just as strong a bond and share a chemistry that would make anyone envious. Recently, Reynolds, along with his Deadpool & Wolverine costar Hugh Jackman, made an appearance on Vanity Fair’s Lie Detector Test, and was asked by Jackman, ‘Is Blake Lively really your wife?’

Being the amusing person that he is, Reynolds cheekily replied,

Well, there’s a 25-year contract, sure. I don’t think she can make it. 

While his answer might seem like a typical comedic quip, Reynolds’ statement is also a testament to the playful dynamic that the couple shares. Despite often teasing each other on social media and in interviews, the Deadpool star’s ’25-year contract’ is actually his tongue-in-cheek way of showing how devoted he is to Lively and their marriage, and that he is in it for the long haul!

In a world where relationships often end before they can even start, Reynolds and Lively continue to set couple goals and what it means to each other’s soulmates.

One of Hollywood’s favorite couples indeed, the couple’s enduring relationship is because of the great friendship the duo shares. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Reynolds once shared,

Falling in love is great, but do you like each other? That’s kinda the question you gotta ask yourself, you know, going into it. We’ve always liked each other. We grow together. We learn from each other. So yeah, I’m lucky to have a buddy in that.

Despite often being his comedic self in interviews and public appearances, Reynolds famously once paid a sweet tribute to his wife and family, further solidifying the couple’s status as one of the most fan-favorite couples of all time (via BuzzFeed).

But Blake and my girls, you are quite literally my heart. You are my hope, you are my happiness. I joke that my family exhaust me, but in reality, you give me more strength than any man could possibly deserve.

Even recently, in an interview with People, Reynolds revealed that he and Blake are always rooting for each other, which plays a special role in their enduring relationship. While this isn’t the first or the last time Reynolds has spoken about his marriage to the Gossip Girl star, their relationship continues to inspire many.

Their genuine love and support for each other, unwavering bond, and heartfelt moments continue to remind us that true love and friendship are the cornerstone of a lasting and fulfilling relationship.
