Blake Lively Playfully Jokes About Ryan Reynolds Being Her Hand Model in Hilarious (and Deadpool-Themed) Post
In their 11-year marriage, Blake Lively has consistently showcased her comedic prowess, matching the humor of her husband, Ryan Reynolds. The dynamic duo frequently engages in playful teasing both in public and on social media, emphasizing the importance of humor in their relationship, as noted by the Deadpool star. This trend of good-natured ribbing remаins intact even after more than a decade.
The latest episode in their history of lighthearted banter revolves around a thoughtful gift from Pilates instructor Gabrielle Travaglia. She surprised the celebrity couple with customized bottles from Wrapped, a service described as “an elevated bottle service where art and revelry collide.” Blake Lively shared these delightful bottles on her Instagram Story, affectionately referring to her movie-star spouse as her “hand model.”
One of the bottles paid homage to Reynolds’ iconic Deadpool character, featuring the mask worn by Wade Wilson in the superhero films, adorned with a festive Santa hat for the holiday season. Given that Deadpool 3 is set to premiere in 2024 and the timing of the gift around Christmas, it appears to be perfectly fitting.
Sharing the playful moment with her nearly 44 million Instagram followers, Lively captioned the Instagram Story:
“Coca Cola may have Santa, but I have @vancityreynolds as my hand model. I win.”
Lively also showcased her own customized bottle of Betty Buzz, the premium sparkling soda she founded and launched in September 2021. This bottle, a gift from Travaglia, featured a disco ball-style design with copper-colored mirrored tiles.
In addition to tagging @bettybuzz and @wrappednewyork in the Story, Lively took the opportunity to humorously tease her husband once again, commenting:
“Look at those nail beds.”
Betty Buzz, named after several members of Lively’s family, including her 4-year-old daughter with Reynolds, is not the only one in the beverage business; Reynolds is a co-owner of Aviation American Gin.
Despite their busy schedules with acting, entrepreneurial ventures, and parenting their four children, the couple consistently finds time to affectionately poke fun at each other. Their playful banter has been evident in various instances, such as Lively’s cheeky bikini shot in support of Reynolds’ Free Guy release and Reynolds’ witty thanks for his wife’s “gentle and loving” guidance during his first U.S. election vote.
Reynolds, in an interview with CBS Sunday Morning in February 2023, explained the foundation of their humorous relationship, stating:
“We have fun with it. It’s also an expression of safety too, in the relationship as well. You can kind of have fun with each other that way; chances are you guys are good friends. At the end of the day, that’s what works. Yeah, I love her but I like her. Like I really like her. So that’s what I think really helps us.”
Given the exceptional humor displayed by both partners, it’s safe to sаy their entertaining banter is here to stay. With Deadpool 3 on the horizon, fans can likely expect more delightful teasing and playful exchanges in the near future.
