Blake Lively is hard at work filming a movie, so you know what that means: Ryan Reynolds is back to his usual antics, trolling the press and his wife at the same time with some fake news about their relationship. “My wife’s been shooting a film overseas so I’ve been having a ton of time to pretend like I’m watching the kids,” the actor joked, according to E! News, at a San Diego Comic-Con panel to promote Deadpool 2 on Saturday. “She’s probably filing [divorce] papers as we speak.” As E! reported, the couple have two daughters, 3-year-old James and 1-year-old Inez.
This is far from the first time Reynolds has teased the media about his and Lively’s marriage. In March, a tabloid ran a headline that claimed the couple was “struggling to spend ‘quality time'” together. The actor immediately shut it down with a characteristically snappy tweet: “I wish,” he wrote in response. “I could use a little ‘me time.'” Then, in April, he had another cheeky comeback for a Yahoo! headline that read, “Ryan Reynolds … joins Blake Lively and his mom on red carpet after shutting down split rumors.”
“We’re never splitting. She’ll always be my mom,” he tweeted. “No matter how much jazz-cabbage she smokes with her rollerblading friends.”

Lively filming on location without her family is actually pretty unusual for her. “My husband and I don’t work at the same time, so we all go together as a family,” Lively told People last October. “If we’re away as a family, it’s never more than for a day. We stay together.” But becase the actress is shooting overseas (E! reported she’s recently been filming a thriller, The Rhythm Section, in Spain and Ireland), it would make sense if they’re making an exception because of how young their kids are.
