Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s Best Memories From 2023 Included Taylor Swift
On Saturday, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively both started sharing the best parts of their 2023. Unsurprisingly, that includes each other, but it also includes their close friends, like Hugh Jackman and Taylor Swift.
Reynolds’ first carousel opened with a photo of himself hugging Lively on the beach under a gorgeous rainbow, and included a picture that looks like it was taken at a Kansas City Chiefs game he attended with his wife and Swift. They are posing together for a selfie, and the field is visible behind them, likely MetLife Stadium.
The second collection of best memories also opened with a shot with Lively, and included one with Jackman, both on a soccer field. The pair have been pals for a very long time, and recently filmed scenes for Deadpool 3 together.
“Thank you 2023 part 1. In no real order. I got to spend most of the year working and playing with the people I love,” the actor wrote.
Lively has been dropping multiple carousels of her best memories, including shots of herself at Disneyland Paris, where she says she was pumping breast milk.
“2023 Highlights: pumping at @disneylandparis ???? Cheers Remy,” she wrote, sharing some shots of her with the mascot from Ratatouille.
Her second collection was many shots of Lively in a form-fitting gold sequin jumpsuit.
“2023 Memories: Only @michaelkors could get me to squeeze into gold sequins way too soon after having a baby. Love you MK,” she wrote.
The couple welcomed a fourth child this year, adding to their family of three girls, seven-year-old James, six-year-old Inez, and three year old Betty. Swift has made references to the girls in her songs, specifically her track “Betty,” released on Taylor’s Folklore album in 2020. They had kept Betty’s name a secret until then, and their fourth child’s name and gender is still under wraps. Look out for Swift’s next album just in case there’s another reveal.
