Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively had to follow a certain ‘rule’ when they first started dating.
Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are undeniably a Hollywood power couple, even though they frequently tease each other on social media. They first met on the set of “Green Lantern” in 2010, where sparks began to fly. By 2011, they went public with their romance and secretly tied the knot at Boone Hall Plantation in South Carolina in 2012. Now, they are the proud parents of four children.
Balancing the demands of Hollywood careers with family life hasn’t always been easy for Reynolds and Lively. However, they came up with a specific rule early in their relationship to ensure they always made time for each other. This rule has become a cornerstone of their enduring marriage.
The Rule That Keeps Them Together
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Lively revealed their secret: “When Ryan and I got together, we made a rule not to work at the same time,” she said. “So that we could always prioritize our personal life.”
While this rule wasn’t easy to follow, especially after becoming parents, Lively emphasized its importance. “That takes working really hard when we’re not. Just like financial planning and sustaining that; it takes balance,” she added.
Reynolds echoed this sentiment in an interview with Access Hollywood. “We don’t split up. Like, I shoot movies and my wife shoots movies, and we go travel all over the place, and we just all go together. I think that’s been the best part of it is that we really don’t spend a lot of time apart. I get to spend a lot of time with my girls.”
A Decade of Love and Commitment
The couple’s commitment to their rule has allowed them to build a strong and loving family while maintaining successful careers. From joining Reynolds at soccer games to supporting each other’s projects, they’ve managed to keep their bond strong.
Despite their hectic schedules, Reynolds and Lively continue to prioritize their relationship and family, proving that with the right balance and dedication, love can thrive even in the bustling world of Hollywood.
Their rule may seem simple, but it’s clear that this commitment to each other has been a key factor in their lasting love and happiness.
