A Winning Team
"Quite frankly, you're my heart, you're my hope, you're my happiness," Ryan Reynolds told Blake Lively and their children while accepting The People's Icon Award at the 2022 People's Choice Awards. "I joke that my family exhausts me but, in reality, you give me more strength than any man could possibly deserve."
Endless Love
"When [birth] happens you fall so much more in love with your partner. It's a pretty crazy experience," Reynolds told E! News in March 2015.
Best Friends Forever
"We've never gone a week without seeing each other. There's no major decision that I make without him. The best part is when we turn off our phones and just talk and hang out," she told Marie Claire in August 2014. "He's my best, best friend. What do you do with your best friend? You do nothing."
Hello, Darling!
"I said to Ryan, 'Darling, I made a new friend.' And he's like, 'You only make friends with senior citizens!'" Lively told Vogue in July 2014.
What a Jokester
"He is charming. He does come up with funny things," Blake told POPSUGAR in an interview.
Friends First
"It was weird at first but we were buddies for a long time," he said on Entertainment Weekly's SiriusXM show. "I think it's the best way to have a relationship is to start as friends."
Not So Easy
"I love that he challenges me," Blake told E! News in August 2014. "He's someone that I trust when he challenges me."
Sweet Treats
"Oh, she's quite a baker," Reynolds told E! News at the premiere of The Green Lantern in June 2011 before they were even officially a couple. "There's nothing she can't cook, that's sort of the problem."
Two Trendsetters
"I'm very lucky to be with someone who has better taste than me," Lively told Lucky magazine in July 2013.
