Blake Lively Just Hilariously Trolled Ryan Reynolds for His Birthday
Much fuss is made over Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ seemingly perfect marriage, and for good reason: They’re absolutely hilarious together. Sure, they have their serious moments—like the time Ryan praised Blake for making him “a more empathetic person”—but the two are best when they’re trolling each other.
Take, for example, the time Blake called Ryan out for blocking her photo of John Legend. There’s also the musical prank Ryan played on Blake while she was giving birth to their first daughter, James. (So rude, by the way!) And we can’t forget the GIF Ryan tweeted of Blake that compared their first date to her shark movie, The Shallows.
One of the couple’s funniest moments, though, happened this summer, when Ryan posted on Instagram to honor Blake on her birthday. There was just one problem: He cropped half of her face out of the photo.
Well, it seems Blake has taken the strategy of “don’t get mad, get even” to heart. Here’s what she just posted today on Instagram to celebrate Ryan’s birthday:
She followed that slick move with this tweet:
Well done, Blake, well done. Ryan, meanwhile, had his own birthday jokes to share on Twitter, writing, “My kids tried to surprise me for my birthday this morning. I totally heard them coming and snuck out to start a new life somewhere else.”

But don’t worry about this tweet offending Blake—in fact, his sense of humor is one of the many reasons why she loves her husband. “He’ll run [his tweets] by me sometimes just to make me laugh. But oh, I’m so in love with him when he writes that stuff. I mean, I’m in love with him most of the time, but especially with that,” she told Glamour earlier this year. “I treat him like my girlfriend. I’m like, ‘Hey, this happened. It upset me. This is how I feel. What do I do?’ And he does the same for me. He treats me like his best buddy.”
