American actress Blake Lively is spilling the secret to her 12-year marriage with actor Ryan Reynolds.
BLAKE LIVELY OPENS UP HER MARRIAGE TO RYAN REYNOLDS
In an interview on Amber Tamblyn’s Substack show Further Ado, per Entertainment Tonight, Blake Lively opened up about how important a work-life balance was for her and her husband Ryan Reynolds, specifically at the start of their relationship.
Blake also notes how she and her now-husband promised each other to prioritize their relationship over work.
“When Ryan and I got together, we made a rule not to work at the same time. So that we could always prioritize our personal life”.
Blake Lively continued: “That takes working really hard when we’re not. Just like financial planning and sustaining that, it takes balance”.
The actress also noted that when they got together, she was still working on hit TV series Gossip Girl, which meant that her schedule was very demanding.
“I’m used to working hard and going and going and going and going and not stopping. Especially, Gossip Girl was six years of my life, and we were sometimes shooting three episodes at once”, Lively noted.
‘I TAKE HUGE INTEREST IN THEIR DAYS’
Blake and Ryan started dating in 2011. The couple later tied the knot in 2012.
They have four children, James who is nine-years-old, Inez, who is 7-years-old, four year old Betty and a 1-year-old baby.
In October 2023, Ryna Reynolds opened up to PEOPLE back in October about how he and his wife have managed to reiterated the importance of “self-awareness” to their four children.
“I think it’s more about talking to them about everything. It’s genuine when I say I take a huge interest in their days and how things are going”.
The Deadpool actor continued: “For me, the best time of my day is walking them to school and walking them back. I think as parents, we are so much better equipped to handle the rigors of childhood through our kids now than when I was a kid. It’s just totally different now. People are much more self-aware. And that’s the thing we sort of hang our hat on the most is self-awareness with our kids. Not be happy, not be anything, just be self-aware and welcome everything in”.
