Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds never shy away from gushing — and joking — over parenthood.

The “Deadpool & Wolverine” star recently shared insight into their family’s sleeping arrangement and how crowded it can get.

The actor revealed during the July 20 episode of Amanda Hirsch’s “Not Skinny But Not Fat“ podcast that he and Lively “embrace the chaos” in their household.

“Nothing’s ever going to be tidy again,” he said about having four young kids, before adding, “Yes it will, when they all leave the house, right? When they’re all gone. My wife always says, ‘They’re all under our roof. The whole family is under one roof. We have them all and that is a fleeting thing.’”

He continued that while they’re all under one roof, they’re also in one bed.

“We can’t even go to sleep unless they’re in our bed,” he said, before touching on how precious the family time actually is.

“As much as I want to say, I would love to spread out and fall asleep normally again,” he said, his mindset is, “If you can just think about what you would give in 40 years or 30 years to come back and enjoy this one moment.’”

Reynolds has been sharing more of his and Lively’s family-of-six life. At the premiere of “Deadpool & Wolverine” on July 22, the movie star appeared to reveal the name of his youngest child with Lively — Olin.

Previously, TODAY’s Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb attempted to give a hint at 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 No. 4’s name while Reynolds made an appearance on May 13.

Earlier in July, Lively joked that her husband was “trying to get me pregnant again” after he posted a video of him holding co-star “Dogpool,” Peggy. While talking to E! News ahead of the release of “Deadpool & Wolverine,” Reynolds joked that he wouldn’t mind expanding their family.

“The more the merrier,” he said alongside co-star Hugh Jackman. “As many as possible. As many little heartbeats as possible, just running around, wrecking stuff in the house. I love it. Let’s have more!”

Meanwhile, the “It Ends With Us” star and the “Deadpool” actor value their children’s privacy so much that few photos of the kids have ever been made public (outside of Reynolds’ 2016 Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony).

Their pal Taylor Swift might have let slip a detail about the kids on July 25 when she referred to Reynolds as her “godkids’ sperm donor” in a funny message about his film “Deadpool & Wolverine.” Godmother Taylor, anyone?

Still, Lively and Reynolds have said just enough over the years to piece together a mini-family biography for curious fans. Read on to learn all we know about their children: James, Inez, Betty and Olin, the newest addition to their party of six.

The actor dodged the question with a witty response, saying, “We always wait for Taylor to tell us what the child’s name will be. “We’ll say this. We’re still waiting, so Taylor, let’s maybe start.”

During that same interview, Reynolds also touched on parenting his four children while Lively was away.

“You know, single dad. I’m a Reba McEntire song. Single dad, doing it all. Yeah, just doing it for them, right?” he said, before jokingly adding, “(I) took them all to the park. Told them Mommy left when they were young. Surprisingly, you get a lot of action that way.”

The comedy continued as he had Hoda and Savannah laughing, adding, “No, we had a good time. No one died, which was nice.”

On July 22 at the premiere of Reynolds’ movie “Deadpool & Wolverine,” Reynolds appeared to reveal the name of his and Lively’s fourth child.

“I want to thank my kids, James, Inez, Betty, Olin, who are here,” he said. “I hope that, if I’m lucky, this moment will be the most traumatic thing — that is, the contents of this movie — that happens in your wondrous life.”

On July 26, he revealed in a promotional video that his fourth child is a boy. In the clip, he spoke with a man named John Bell whose son Jake, a fan of Deadpool, died.

After listening to the man’s story, Reynolds said, “I want to share with you that I, too, have a son. Boy, John, if I love him one-tenth as much as you love Jake, I feel like I’ve done a pretty damn good job.”

Ryan Reynolds is reportedly willing to cough up millions to buy out director Justin Baldoni from the potential future of It Ends With Us saga for Blake Lively.

Ryan Reynolds is willing to go to any lengths necessary—even if it requires him to cough up millions—to secure his wife Blake Lively’s future with the It Ends With Us saga.

Now that the media’s obsession with the alleged contentious beef between Blake Lively and her director/costar Justin Baldoni was gradually subsiding more than a month after the It Ends With Us theatrical release, a bombshell report has reignited the flames of drama all over again. (Also read: Blake Lively ‘vulnerable and upset’ over It Ends With Us controversy: ‘Just not used to this kind of drama’)

Like Blake Lively said, the couple works in tandem, no matter whose project it is

“Ryan is willing to offer millions to Blake’s director and costar, Justin Baldoni, in an attempt to buy out his stake in the franchise so Blake can continue her role without having to work with Baldoni, with whom she clashed,” a source told Life & Style. The director-actor’s production house, Wayfarer Studios, owns the rights to the books.

If these claims are actualised in the future, it wouldn’t be Reynolds’ first contribution to his wife’s 2024 movie that even wrestled with his own R-rated MCU premiere, Deadpool & Wolverine. In an interview with E! News on August 6, Lively proudly proclaimed: “The iconic rooftop scene, my husband actually wrote it. Nobody knows that but you now.”

Lively returned the favour by lending her voice to Lady Deadpool in her husband’s film. “We help each other,” she added. “He works on everything I do. I work on everything he does. So his wins, his celebrations are mine, and mine are his.”

According to PEOPLE, these “improvisations” surprised screenwriter Christy Hall, who had no idea of Reynolds’ involvement in the background.

It Ends With Us fever commands the box office

The cinematic adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s controversial novel has consequently emerged as Lively’s most commercially successful movie. Although the film tried its all to redirect the thematic focus towards a woman reclaiming her life after parting ways with an abusive marriage, its promotions completely lost the plot and garnered massive attention for all the wrong reasons.

Be it the plot, the cast, or the speculative narrative spun around the film’s promotions and the alleged inflammable tug-of-war between Lively and Baldoni, It Ends With Us has indubitably made history at the global box office. According to The Hollywood Reporter’s latest box office recordings, Lively’s movie has raked in over $309 million in global ticket sales. To get an idea of how profitable these numbers are, it’s worth noting that the staggering Sony success was produced on a reported budget of $25 million.

Sony Pictures on Blake Lively’s side

Numerous positive and negative reports have backed or targetted Blake and Justin, respectively. However, Sony ultimately jumped into rarefied action by officially coming to the lead actress’ rescue after fans accused her of leading “tone-deaf” promotions for a film about such heavy and triggering themes.

“Blake, Colleen and so many women put so much effort into this remarkable movie, working selflessly from the start to ensure that such an important subject matter was handled with care. Audiences love the movie. Blake’s passion and commitment to advancing the conversation around domestic violence is commendable,” Sony Pictures Entertainment Chair-CEO Tony Vinciquerra told THR in August. “We love working with Blake, and we want to do 12 more movies with her.”

While these conspicuously Blake-leaning remarks have presumably sealed a gratifying deal for her future with Sony Pictures, her husband is reportedly willing to go the extra mile to buy out Baldoni from the potential sequel.

Any talks of the It Ends With Us sequel yet?

The source material for the It Ends With Us sequel already exists in the form of the follow-up novel “It Starts With Us.” Nevertheless, the franchise’s future seems muddy at the moment. Amid the rumoured feud between Lively and Baldoni, Baldoni put his foot down when asked about the potential adaptation of Hoover’s 2022 sequel novel.

“I think that there are better people for that one,” he submitted at the New York City premiere of the movie on August 6. Instead of confirming his status vis-a-vis the franchise, Baldoni repositioned the spotlight on Lively. “I think Blake Lively is ready to direct, that’s what I think,” he told Entertainment Tonight.

At this very event, Lively, Hoover, and other cast members visibly distanced themselves from Baldoni. The film’s leading actors weren’t even pictured together for the subsequent press tour.

Meghan Markle reacts to The King’ decision to strip her Royal title

Meghan Markle warns King Charles, Prince William against royal title stripping

Meghan Markle has sent a message to King Charles and Prince William to not make a fool out of themselves by stripping her and Prince Harry’s royal titles.

A source close to the Duchess of Sussex has revealed what she thinks of reports about the monarch and Prince of Wales having discussions about removing her and Harry’s titles.

For the unversed, royal expert and author Tom Quinn has claimed Charles and William have been having lengthy discussions about doing something about the Sussexes’ titles.

However, the expert noted that “the last thing they want is to give the renegades something else to complain about.”

Susan Boyle, known for her fame on Britain’s Got Talent, made a surprise appearance in the show’s season 4 finale. The Scottish singer revealed she had suffered a stroke last year but bravely returned to perform “I Dreamed a Dream” with the Les Misérables cast. Boyle, 62, shared her feelings, saying, “It feels great. It is particularly meaningful for me because I had a mild stroke there in April of last year. I’ve pushed hard to get back on stage, and I completed it.”

Show creator Simon Cowell praised her resilience, saying, “Susan, we owe you so much…it wouldn’t be the same without you.” Boyle also shared her joy on Instagram, posting images from the night. She explained, “The fact that I suffered a stroke in April 2022 made this event all the more special for me.” Boyle’s hard work paid off, allowing her to sing on stage again after a year of recovery.

A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, leading to symptoms like headaches, paralysis, and speech difficulties (Mayo Clinic).

Taylor Swift’s latest appearance at a Kansas City Chiefs game sparked online criticism over her bold fashion choices. Wearing an oversized red Chiefs tee as a mini dress, paired with thigh-high black boots, a crossbody bag, and gold chains, Swift’s outfit drew mixed reactions. While she’s known for pushing style boundaries, some found her look inappropriate. One user commented, “With all her money, that’s what she wears?” Another said, “Looking like an old-fashioned streetwalker as usual.”

Swift’s attendance also fueled rumors that her outfit choices might be tied to her relationship with Chiefs star Travis Kelce. “Since Kelce, she’s all about PR,” one critic claimed.

Despite the backlash, Swift’s influence on NFL viewership is undeniable. Her presence has led to increased attention on Kelce’s games, with fans and commentators crediting her star power for drawing more eyes to the sport.

Kelce, an NFL record-holder, continues to shine on the field, but Swift’s role in his newfound media attention remains significant. As the relationship unfolds, both stars are in the spotlight, facing added scrutiny.

In the ever-evolving landscape of American entertainment, politics has become an integral part of the conversation. The lines between Hollywood and Washington, D.C., have blurred, and celebrities are no longer just entertainers; they are now influential voices in the realm of politics and social activism. Roseanne Barr, a veteran actress and comedian, has always been known for her outspoken nature, and she’s not one to shy away from controversy. Her latest move has raised eyebrows and ignited a fierce debate about the role of politics and “wokeness” in the entertainment industry. In a surprising turn of events, Barr decided to throw Rob Reiner out of her new Fox show, citing his overtly liberal political views as the primary reason.

Roseanne Barr is no stranger to controversy. Her eponymous television show, “Roseanne,” was a groundbreaking sitcom that tackled issues like poverty, race, and sexuality in a way that resonated with many working-class Americans. However, the show’s revival in 2018 was met with mixed reactions, especially due to Barr’s controversial tweets that led to the show’s cancellation. Despite the controversy, Barr has continued to be an outspoken conservative voice in Hollywood, aligning herself with the likes of Donald Trump and other right-wing figures.

On the other hand, Rob Reiner is a prominent liberal activist and Hollywood director. He is known for his political involvement and his vocal opposition to the Trump administration. Reiner has used his platform to advocate for progressive policies and candidates, making him a polarizing figure in the entertainment industry.

It all began when Barr announced her new show on Fox, a network known for its conservative leanings. The show, which was still in its early stages of development, was set to be a sitcom centered around Barr’s character, a working-class woman navigating the challenges of modern America. However, Barr’s decision to cast Rob Reiner in a recurring role raised eyebrows among her conservative supporters.

Barr’s decision to work with Reiner was seen as a surprising move, given their starkly different political beliefs. Reiner’s involvement in the project was meant to add a touch of political diversity to the show, showcasing differing opinions within the working-class community. However, as production progressed, it became clear that their political differences were causing friction on set.

The breaking point came during a table read for one of the show’s episodes. Barr and Reiner had a heated argument over the script, with Barr accusing Reiner of trying to insert his liberal agenda into the show. According to witnesses on set, the argument escalated to the point where Barr asked Reiner to leave the set and ultimately decided to fire him from the project.

Barr’s decision to remove Reiner from the show sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry and the political world. It ignited a fierce debate about the intersection of politics and entertainment and the role of “wokeness” in the industry.

The clash between Roseanne Barr and Rob Reiner highlights the ongoing debate about the role of politics in the entertainment industry. Hollywood has long been a hub for liberal activism and a platform for celebrities to voice their political opinions. However, in recent years, the polarization of American politics has spilled over into the world of entertainment, creating a divide among both creators and audiences.

On one hand, some argue that the entertainment industry should be a space where diverse voices and perspectives can be heard, regardless of their political affiliation. They believe that art should be separate from politics and that artists should have the freedom to express themselves without fear of backlash or censorship. In this view, the inclusion of differing political viewpoints in a project should be seen as a positive step toward fostering open dialogue and understanding.

On the other hand, critics argue that the entertainment industry has become overly politicized and that it often promotes a one-sided narrative that alienates conservative voices. They contend that the industry’s “wokeness” has gone too far, leading to the exclusion of conservative actors and creators. In this view, Barr’s decision to remove Reiner from her show is seen as a pushback against the industry’s left-leaning bias.

The term “wokeness” has become a buzzword in recent years, often used to describe a heightened awareness of social and political issues, particularly those related to identity, race, gender, and inequality. While many see it as a positive movement that seeks to address systemic injustices and promote social progress, others view it as a form of political correctness that stifles free expression and creates a culture of cancel culture.

Barr’s decision to throw Rob Reiner out of her show can be seen as a response to what she perceives as an overzealous embrace of “wokeness” in the entertainment industry. She may have felt that Reiner’s political views were intruding on the creative process and diluting the authenticity of her project. This incident raises questions about the extent to which “wokeness” should be integrated into entertainment and whether it should take precedence over artistic freedom.

Following the controversy, Roseanne Barr’s new show faced both support and backlash. Some conservative viewers praised her for taking a stand against what they see as an industry dominated by liberal voices. Others criticized her for firing Reiner, arguing that it was an example of intolerance for differing viewpoints.

Rob Reiner, on the other hand, did not stay silent. He took to social media to express his disappointment with Barr’s decision and accused her of suppressing free speech. Reiner argued that the entertainment industry should be a platform for diverse voices and that firing him for his political beliefs was a form of censorship.

The clash between Roseanne Barr and Rob Reiner serves as a microcosm of the broader debate surrounding politics in entertainment. As the lines between politics and pop culture continue to blur, it is likely that similar conflicts will arise in the future. The question remains: how can the entertainment industry strike a balance between promoting diversity and inclusion while respecting artistic freedom and differing viewpoints?

One possible solution is for creators and producers to be transparent about their intentions and political stances when developing a project. This can help manage expectations and allow for open discussions about the project’s political themes and messages. Additionally, the industry can benefit from fostering an environment where diverse voices are encouraged and valued, regardless of their political affiliation.

The clash between Roseanne Barr and Rob Reiner over her new Fox show is a stark reminder of the ongoing debate about the role of politics and “wokeness” in the entertainment industry. It highlights the challenges that creators and actors face when trying to navigate the complex intersection of art and politics. Ultimately, the industry must find a way to promote diversity and inclusion while preserving artistic freedom and open dialogue. Only then can it truly reflect the diverse perspectives and experiences of the American people.
