Blake Lively marked Valentine’s Day by sharing a rare selfie with husband Ryan Reynolds, giving her followers an intimate look at their 10-year relationship. “Find me a better friend. ♥️ I’ll wait…” Lively wrote. For a couple that tends to troll each other on social media whenever they can, it’s a very sweet and simple remark.
Reynolds didn’t share a Valentine’s Day post himself, but he has historically gushed about Lively on his own Instagram from time to time, too. For Mother’s Day last year, he shared one of his most sincere posts to her, although it still incorporated some of his signature dry humor.
He wrote, “It can’t be said enough… you’re the heart and soul of every moment this family shares. I’m grateful for the light and for the kindness you smuggle into each and every second of our lives. I see you in the eyes of our children… Every laugh. Every blink and every thoughtful moment of vulnerability. The tender grit it takes to be a mother in 2021 is an act of pure strength and heroism. Never could I have predicted anonymous airport bathroom sex would lead to this. Or how you’d hire Dog The Bounty Hunter to find me. Either way, I’m lucky to reflect a little of the sunlight you shine on all of us. Happy Mother’s Day, my love.”
In July 2021, Reynolds said on the SmartLess podcast that his and Lively’s buddy friendship becoming a lifelong romance is “one of those silly moments out of a fairytale.”
