Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are #RelationshipGoals and This is Why

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at GWU chapter.

If I were Serena, I would divorce Dan Humphrey in a hot second. I mean, come on Upper East Siders; we all know Lonely Boy is beyond overrated. Please, they are so not meant for each other. Truthfully, I’m still holding out for a reunion episode where Serenate (Serena + Nate) is a thing.

 

My false hope aside, I can still sleep like a baby at night knowing that Serena IRL, AKA Blake Lively, is living the ultimate fantasy. Let’s be honest, we would all pick Ryan Reynolds over Mr. Humphrey any day of the week. So, for all of you hopeless romantics still waiting for prince charming to appear, let’s take a look at Blake Lively and Ryan Reynold’s fairytale romance from a far distance—and engage in a not-so healthy amount of self pity.

 

Just this week Blake reminded us of how perfect her family is when she told Michael Kors in a game of Fact or Fiction on his Youtube channel that her hubby played Marvin Gaye’s “Let’s Get it On” while she was giving birth to daughter Ines.  Reynolds is not only a gorgeous human specimen, but he’s also funny—can you say total package?

The picture perfect family recently let the world catch a glimpse of their family of four when Deadpool star, Ryan Reynolds, accepted his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Lively, Reynolds, James, 2, and Ines, 6 months were snapped looking as adorable as ever.

While the couple tends to keep to themselves, Reynolds occasionally gives a sneak peak into his private life. On the Show with David Letterman, he said, “ ‘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.”

 

Funny, hot and a lover of children? Attention Ryan: forget Blake, marry me! (But, I mean I guess your wife is kind of, sort of perfect.)
