On Wednesday, April 1, the Another Simple Favor actress, 38, shared a picture of the prank her kids pulled on her for April Fools’ Day. The snap, which she shared on her Instagram Stories, showed her toilet seat covered in plastic wrap and markings.
“I knew I never should’ve taught them how to read a calendar,” she wrote in text over the photo.

The Gossip Girl alum and her actor husband Ryan Reynolds, who wed in 2012, share four children: daughters Betty, 6, Inez, 9, and James, 11, and son Olin, 3.
Lively’s post comes after a turbulent year for the star, who is currently scheduled to head to court on May. 18. After starring in the film It Ends With Us, which came out in August 2024, Lively sued director and actor Justin Baldoni in December 2024, alleging sexual harassment and retaliation, which he denies. The legal battle has been playing out in court.
On Saturday, the actress shared a carousel of photos on her Instagram, including a rare shot of one of her four kids.
In the blurry photo, Lively captured what appeared to be the Deadpool actor, 49, holding one of their kids on his shoulders. The two could be seen walking in a garden while Lively snapped the picture from behind. She also included other photos from her trip to England, such as visiting Soho Farmhouse and attending a Wrexham game.
“🇬🇧 🤍 🏴 so grateful for the best week with my loved ones,” Lively wrote in her caption in part.
This past December, Reynolds appeared at The Wall Street Journal‘s CMO Council Summit and gave a rare comment about his son, Olin. When asked by moderator Maryam Banikarim about a past failure in his life that turned into a learning lesson, Reynolds identified his 2011 superhero movie, Green Lantern, specifically.
“Creatively speaking, it’s hard to say. Someone might say Green Lantern,” Reynolds quipped.

The dad of four continued, explaining, “You laugh, but my son, it’s his favorite movie, and he watches it every f—— day.”
“Do you understand the work I’ve had to do to get to the place where I can just pass by that screen and not go, ‘Well, we could have [done something to make it better]?’ ” Reynolds jokingly asked the audience.
In an August 2024 interview with Vogue, Lively said that her life has become “more intimate” since becoming a mother — and that she’s learned how to juggle their needs with her busy schedule.
“Sitting around with them doing chicken dances while I have a very serious conversation with you is probably the most accurate portrait of me possible,” she said.
