Reynolds shared an update on wife Lively's whereabouts on Monday, February 12, after teasing that he couldn't find her when she was with Swift at Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday.
“I found my wife,” he wrote via his Instagram Story, sharing a photo of Lively at the championship game overlooking the field in Las Vegas.
The photo also showed that Lively had a Deadpool and Wolverine heart charm alongside her Tiffany & Co. jewelry worth nearly $500,000 to the sporting event celebrating Reynolds' upcoming superhero movie. The first trailer for Deadpool 3 debuted during the Super Bowl.
Original story below:
Ryan Reynolds didn't make it to Super Bowl LVIII, but his wife, Blake Livelyit certainly did.
“Does everyone have the Deadpool trailer?” Reynolds, 47, captioned an Instagram Story photo on Sunday, February 11. “Has anyone seen my wife?”
In the photo, Reynolds smiled as the Deadpool 3 trailer debuted during the Super Bowl timeslot. While staying home for the big game, Lively, 36, joined BFF Taylor Swift to watch the Kansas City Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers.
Swift, 34, arrived at the game on Sunday with Lively in tow to support her friend Travis Kelce. The friends rarely left each other's side throughout the night, with cameras quickly capturing Swift and Lively holding hands together. PostMalone sang “America the Beautiful” on the field before kickoff.
Swift was seen interacting with the other people in her suite – including Miles And Keleigh Teller, Ice herb And Lana Del Rey – but she and Lively always stood next to each other. When the Chiefs finally won the Super Bowl in overtime, Lively held Swift's hand as they jumped up and down. (The Chiefs defeated the 49ers by a score of 25-22.)
While Lively attended Sunday's game without her husband, she and Reynolds previously stood by Swift's side when the Chiefs played the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in October 2023. (Swift attended her first NFL game of the season a month earlier, sparking a romance with official Kelce, 34.)
Swift and Lively's friendship dates back to 2015, when the actress publicly revealed that she was a big fan of the singer. The duo was first spotted together in December.
Two years later, the tradition of Lively and Reynolds' children being featured in Swift's music began with her song “Gorgeous.” The couple's eldest daughter, James, made her singing debut on the Reputation to follow in 2017.
“A little introduction, yes,” Reynolds said Good morning America in 2018. “That was a voice memo that was on a [Taylor Swift] song. It's pretty amazing. My daughter now has a really, really terrible ego problem after that song.
James and her sisters Inez and Betty also played a major role in Swift's 2020 record Folklore. All three names appeared in songs on the album, including 'Betty' and 'August'. (Lively and Reynolds have since welcomed a fourth child, but neither the couple nor Swift have revealed the name yet.)
The BFFs have consistently shared glimpses of their friendship via social media, with Lively even sharing a sweet shout-out to Swift while attending the Renaissance: A Beyoncé Film will premiere together in December 2023.
“When I was growing up, women were always against each other. It took me until adulthood to realize that women's instinct to lift each other to their highest potential is the norm and not the exception,” she wrote via Instagram at the time, referring to Swift and Beyonce, both of whom embarked on the biggest tours of their careers last year. “Most of my best friends are women who would be packaged against me as a threat or competition. Our job is to show younger generations the power of aligning rather than dividing.”
