Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are hands down one of the power couples in Hollywood. They have always inspired people with their beautiful yet joyful bond.
The year 2023 was marked by the heartbreaking separation of some of the most beloved celebrity couples in Tinsel Town. Be it Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness’s 27-year-long marriage or Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s four years of togetherness, many celebrity couples announced that they have decided to part ways this year. However, amidst all the chaos and heartbreak, one couple stood strong and continued to inspire us with their love and bond, and that is none other than Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
Their relationship is not only enviable but also the talk of the town. Blake and Ryan met on the sets of their superhero movie, Green Lantern. As fate would have it, the two tied the knot in 2012 and celebrated 11 happy years of marriage in 2023. The two are known for their playful social media banter and public displays of affection on the red carpets, making them the perfect example of true love and commitment. The couple not only has four beautiful children together. Their love is an inspiration to many, and it's no wonder, they're considered one of Hollywood's power couples.

While both Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds never leave a chance to amaze us with their fun camaraderie, this one-time, the 36-year-old American actress left almost everyone in tears with her emotional appreciation speech for her husband, Ryan. We stumbled upon the viral video on the internet, which is a part of the 36th Annual American Cinematheque Awards ceremony held in November 2022. Blake Lively is seen standing on stage in a gorgeous yet sexy floor-length dress with a deep V-neck and golden floral pattern. In the clip, Blake says:
“I am his home, and our girls are his home. And just like that 19-year-old boy, he races home. Whether it’s across the globe or a meeting across the street, he is hard-wired to get home.”
Then, the camera focuses on Ryan Reynolds, who seemed a bit emotional while he was listening to the speech. His wife continued saying that he always returns home despite giving his work his level best. She further added:
“If he came home from set not in his wardrobe, we would be very concerned. Soaked in mud, fake blood, real blood, prosthetic scars, superhero suits, tap shoes, or clown makeup, Daddy always comes home. And that man races back to his real life like nothing I have ever seen, especially not by someone who’s able to be so all in his work and life.”

Blake took a moment to acknowledge her husband's strengths as a partner and father. Her heartfelt words visibly moved Reynolds, and the Gossip Girl alum ended her speech with a light-hearted remark, bringing smiles to everyone's faces. She said:
“He’s able to somehow be everything to everyone all at once. He’s the most present person you will ever meet. And yes, he creates magic in his work, but man, oh man, does he create magic in his real life. Home is where the heart is, which is why he gives so much of his heart back home.”

Time and again, both Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have reiterated that friendship is the foundation of a strong romantic relationship. And seeing them always being each other’s best support system, we can definitely say that friendship is indeed important. Once, Ryan Reynolds mentioned in an interview with Entertainment Tonight how they've managed to maintain a strong friendship over the years. He said:
“We don’t take each other too serious, but we’re also friends. Falling in love is great, but do you like each other? 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.”
We love Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ fun banter on social media. Are you guys with us on the same page? Let us know.
