Ryan Reynolds recently shared heartwarming details about his family’s relationship with Taylor Swift, highlighting her role as godmother to his children.
Reynolds and his partner, Blake Lively, who married in 2012, are proud parents of four children: James (9), Inez (8), Betty (5), and Olin (1).
Swift, who shares a close bond with the couple, humorously confirmed her status as a godmother on social media.
She made waves on Instagram while promoting Reynolds‘ movie Deadpool & Wolverine, jokingly referring to him as “my godkids’ sperm donor.”
This playful announcement quickly gained traction among fans, leading Reynolds to quip in an interview, “I might want that on my gravestone.”
While confirming her role as godmother to his daughters, Reynolds did not clarify if Swift is also a godparent to Olin.
He acknowledged her influence, suggesting that her support may have significantly boosted the film’s success, stating, “Taylor’s involvement probably gave us a solid box office lift.”
Deadpool & Wolverine broke records to become the highest-grossing R-rated film globally, surpassing the billion-dollar milestone.
Swift‘s relationship with Reynolds and Lively is notably meaningful; she even honored their children in her song “Betty,” where she mentioned James and Inez.
The friendship between the families is evident in their numerous public shows of support.
Additionally, Shawn Levy, who directed several of Reynolds‘ films, announced he is the godfather to Olin, reinforcing the strong connections in their circle.
Behind the Scenes
The family’s collaboration extended to Deadpool & Wolverine, featuring Blake Lively as Ladypool and their daughter Inez, who had a cameo as Kidpool.
Reynolds shared a funny behind-the-scenes moment with Inez, joking, “She’s the only co-star I’ve had disagreements with. Many think Kidpool’s the feistiest, but she’s also quite sassy about chores.”
While Reynolds is known for his comedy, neighbor Martha Stewart noted that he tends to be more serious in real life, humorously commenting during an event.
Reynolds playfully replied on social media, noting, “I would contest that statement, but it didn’t work out well for me; she’s surprisingly energetic and quick!”
Despite his comic persona, sources disclose that Reynolds cherishes his downtime, favoring a more private lifestyle off-screen, which aids him in managing his known challenges with anxiety.
The bond among Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, and Taylor Swift is commendable, showcasing a friendship rich in mutual admiration, laughter, and genuine affection.
