Blake Lively is doing fans a simple favor by sharing a glimpse inside her family life.
Indeed, the Gossip Girl alum shared a carousel of snaps from her time in the UK, including a never-before-seen snap of one of her and Ryan Reynolds’ four kids weeks after enjoying a PDA-filled soccer outing with the Deadpool star.
“So grateful for the best week with my loved ones,” Blake—mom to kids James, 11, Inez, 9, Betty, 6, and Olin, 3, with Ryan—shared alongside a British flag emoji in a March 28 Instagram post. “Thank you @wrexham_afc and all the players and everyone who works at that stadium for the performance of a lifetime. The greatest 10,000 people to share an emotional roller coaster with is in Wrexham.”
She added, “Shout out to everyone (like my sweet sister in slide 10) who thinks someone is taking a photo of their cute outfit, when it’s really a video.”
In addition to sharing the clip of her sister Robyn Lively, Blake, 38, also posted the rare photo of her blonde-haired little one. In the blurry photo, Ryan, 49, can be seen carrying their kid on his shoulders while strolling through a garden.

Meanwhile, more snaps pictured Blake, Ryan, and their friends enjoying a soccer match at the Football Association Challenge Cup in Wales March 7 at a face-off between Wrexham—which is co-owned by Ryan—and Chelsea.
And while Blake made note of the energetic match, all eyes were on her and the Buried actor as they packed on the PDA.

During one tender moment, Ryan can be seen embracing his wife in both arms as the pair share a kiss. For the occasion, The Adam Project actor kept it casual in a gray sweatshirt and jeans. Meanwhile, The Age of Adaline star sported a denim jacket with matching blue jeans.
While the pair are notoriously private about their personal lives, Blake previously shared insight into what it’s like to raise little ones with differing personalities.
“My little boy is so romantic,” Blake said on Late Night With Seth Meyers last May of her only son Olin. “When I walk in, he goes, ‘Mama, my love!’”
Joking that her and Ryan’s house is “chaos at all times,” the pair’s “dream” toddler brings the calm.
“It’s different,” she added of having a son. “He just, like, announces that I’m the love of his life at all times, which is just the best feeling in the world.”
For more nuggets about parenting that Blake and Ryan have dropped over the years, read on…
This Will Make Your Head Spin
“I have seen Frozen with my daughters so, so many times and people don’t know this, but if you play Frozen backwards, it’s actually a shot for shot remake of The Exorcist,” Reynolds joked on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2018.
Fun Uncle
On Dec. 15, 2016, Reynolds and Lively debuted their daughters James and Inez for the first time, at the actor’s Hollywood Walk of Fame Ceremony (a common setting for notoriously private celebrities to introduce the world to their kids). During his speech, Reynolds said to his wife, “You make everything better—absolutely everything in my life better. You’ve given us two of the most incredible children that I could ever hope to have. You’ve made me the father of my dreams when I thought I only had fun uncle potential.”
Best Thing Ever
In August 2016, before the birth of the couple’s second daughter, Reynolds told E! News, “There’s nothing on earth more grounding than having a baby. It’s the best thing that could ever happen to someone.”
The Messy Side
“It’s tough when you get pooped on and barfed on, but having a baby is wonderful,” the proud mama told NW Magazine in 2016. “Even when it’s tough and I’m exhausted, I think, ‘I am so fortunate.'”
A Bullet for Baby
During a visit to the Late Show with David Letterman in 2015, Reynolds gushed about his marriage and his daughter, but made sure viewers knew who was more important. “‘I would take a bullet for you. I could never love anything as much as I love you.’ I would say that to my wife. And the second I looked in that baby’s eyes, I knew in that exact moment that if we were ever under attack, I would use my wife as a human shield to protect that baby.”
The Joys of Fatherhood
In tradition with his dark sense of humor, Reynolds shared this little parenting joke with his Twitter followers in 2016: “Being a father is the single greatest feeling on earth. Not including those wonderful years I spent without a child, of course.”
Daddy’s Dirty Work
“I always do the dirty work,” Reynolds said on NBC’s Today show in 2016. “I’m happy to do the dirty work. So does she, but I’m always, I love getting up in the middle of the night, I’m fine with that, you know, all that stuff.”
Fatherhood, he said, has been “amazing.”
Morning Duties
“I had one of those mornings, rare mornings, where my daughter just didn’t want me to leave—and it was only because my wife was asleep,” Reynolds said in 2016. “But it was like, you didn’t want to go. You just like, it kills you.”
There’s Dad!
“You know, what was really weird was, we were watching the Super Bowl and my daughter saw it and she totally recognized me. There was like 12 of me, which is just like, to her, was like 24 useless boobs,” Reynolds said in 2016. “She was so not impressed. She was like, ‘Eh, whatever.'”
Becoming A Big Kid
“Damn it’s hard letting your infant daughter go somewhere alone for the first time, I was a total mess dropping her off at Burning Man,” Ryan joked to his Twitter followers in 2016.
Look Who’s Talking
“She’s great, man. She’s great,” the proud papa gushed in 2015 before revealing whether the couple’s then-only child James has started speaking. “We’re getting a lot of sounds, nothing that sounds like discernible English at this point,” he quipped, adding, “I’m mocking her a lot.”
Silly Love
“@vancityreynolds Since the day our baby was born, I’ve felt so strongly in my heart that you were most likely the father,” Lively wrote on Instagram in 2015. “#ILoveYouSoMuchItsSilly.”
It’s a Constant Surprise
“Having a baby is just living in the constant unexpected,” Lively said in 2016. “You never know when you’re gonna get crapped on or when you’re gonna get a big smile or when that smile immediately turns into hysterics. It might be like living with a drug addict. But you have a baby and you think, ‘I can’t imagine ever not having a baby,’ because they grow up so quickly. I’d be an 80-year-old woman with a baby if I could.”
Family Is Everything
“It’s the best,” Lively said in 2015. “It’s the thing that binds us all—family. We have very unique jobs for a living, but we all are a part of someone’s family. It’s a nice thing.”
Father’s Day Gift
“On Father’s Day, my daughter smiled at me,” Reynolds tweeted in 2015. “It was all the gift I needed as I packed a bag and left for 6 years to write a book on parenting.”
Everything’s Worth It
“There have been times where I woke up, literally had no idea I had been walking for five minutes,” he told E! News while promoting his movie Woman in Gold in 2015.
“But you love it. You wake up in the middle of the night, you got a big stupid smile on your face. I was telling someone else that. Anything else that woke you up every 45 minutes, you’d kill it. But when it’s a baby, it’s the best thing that ever happened to you.”
Proud Papa
“One of the most common things in the world is making out, having a couple of drinks, and then doing it, and then having a baby. I was perfectly sober for this one though. I gotta say,” Reynolds joked in 2016.
“It’s amazing. I just always marvel how common it is and yet how profound it is. And I always laugh because you know celebrities you always cringe when they talk about their kids. Like ‘my child is the only one that has ever exited a womb out, ever.'”
Daddy’s Little Girl
“Well, a lot of people have done this, so you always want to temper it with a little of self-effacement. But I love it,” Reynolds said in 2015 about then-only child James. “I truly worship that kid. It’s terrible. She has me so far wrapped around her finger it’s dumb. She says ‘Dada’ and I will walk through a cement wall to get to her.”
