Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, Hollywood's most powerful couple and, for us commoners, "we want what they have" couple, are gearing up to expand their family. The Proposal actor and The Age of Adaline actress share three adorable daughters and are now looking to add more, hopefully, a son to their brood. Lively, 35, is one of the most prolific actresses in the business today. Her best-known credits are Gossip Girls, New York; I Love You, A Simple Favour, and The Shallows.  

Lively's beloved husband, Reynolds, 45, is as big a star, with multiple accolades, including a Critic' Choice, Grammy, and People's choice, under his belt. Reynolds' most acclaimed projects are Deadpool, Woman in Gold, The Hitman's Bodyguard, and Red Notice. Dubbed the most adored couple in showbiz, Lively and Reynolds have been married since 2012.

Spectators reported that only a few pictures of Lively were allowed as Blake's team deemed the news "sensitive." The surprise appearance comes a little after the Gossip Girl alum posted a bikini-clad picture of herself on Instagram, with no bump in sight- probably to throw off her fans before the bombshell revelation.

Lively and Reynolds are doting parents to three daughters, James, 7, Inez, 5, and Betty, 2, all of whom the pair have kept out of the spotlight. There is no doubt that Lively and Ryan fit into the protective parents' category, but the twosome doesn't hesitate when it comes to giving fans insights into their life as parents and sharing anecdotes of their perfect trio. "I'm a parent of three girls, ; theyre wild. I think they have rabies sometimes," the Deadpool actor quips.

The duo's oldest, James, was born on December 16, 2014. While you may think Blake and Ryan have given into the trend of weird celebrity baby names, Reynolds reveals their eldest born was named after his father, James Chester Reynolds, who passed away shortly after their daughter's birth. James made her onscreen appearance at 2, appearing on Taylor Swift's album Reputation.

The couple's middleborn, Inez, was born on September 30, 2016, and is now only two weeks away from her 6th birthday. According to The Proposal actor, Inez has already developed an edgy character. The actor reveals his secondborn is way too into villain. "We watch Beauty and the Beast and her favorite character is Gaston," said the soon-to-be father of two while revealing his daughter's spunky side.

The couple's youngest, Betty, arrived October 4, 2019, and even had her arrival announced by Lively's BFF Swift, via her song, Betty, which also references the duo's other girls. "You heard the rumors from Inez / You can't believe a word she says. James, get in, let's drive," reads Swift's lyrics. Lively last revealed that Betty's arrival had caused a bit of disequilibrium in their house. "My oldest is very much into the baby, but my middle child, not so much," said Blake.
