From meeting on the set of Green Lantern to becoming parents to four children, here’s everything to know about Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s relationship timeline
Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have a swoon-worthy romance.
The couple first met on the set of Green Lantern in 2010, but didn’t develop a romantic relationship until a year later.
“We were buddies for a long time, which I think is the best way to have a relationship, to start as friends,” Reynolds told Jess Cagle on SiriusXM’s Entertainment Weekly Radio Deadpool special in 2016.
In fact, sparks didn’t start flying until they went on a double date … with other people.
“About a year after Green Lantern had come and gone and we were both single we went on a double date – she was on a date with another guy and I was on a date with another girl – and it was like the most awkward date for the respective parties because we were just like fireworks coming across,” Reynolds said.
Since then, they have shared numerous sweet moments together — on the red carpet and on social media — and have become parents of four, James, Inez, Betty and a newborn they welcomed this year.
