  • Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds recently revealed that they welcomed their third child over the summer, news that the famous couple managed to keep secret from the world for two months.

  • The pair are notoriously private when it comes to their children, but Reynolds shared a photo (albeit an edited on) of their newborn child on Twitter to promote an important cause.


Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are open books on social media when it comes to sharing their own lives with their fans—but, when it comes to their kids, the couple is notoriously private.

The world only recently learned that the actors welcomed their third child over the summer—a milestone Blake and Ryan managed to keep secret for an impressive two months.

That's why it was such a shock on Wednesday night when Reynolds shared a photo of himself, Lively, and the newest addition to their family on Twitter. In the photo's caption, Reynolds also revealed the baby's sex by noting his hopes for his daughters, which points to a third girl for the Lively-Reynolds household.

"I love B.C.," the actor wrote, along with a photo of him, Lively and their newborn in the woods of British Columbia, surrounded by lush greenery. "I want my daughters to experience the same natural playground I grew up in. On Oct. 21, the candidate you vote for will SHAPE CLIMATE POLICY. I’m proud of the climate progress made the last 4 years. Click http://Elections.ca for voting info. #Capilano."

Of course, in true Blake and Ryan fashion, the photo was edited to obscure the baby's face. The edit? A doodle of a smiley face, presumably courtesy of the doting dad himself.

Fans jumped to reply to tweet, many with comments that are perfectly in line with the couple's own signature sense of humor. One Twitter user teased, "Your baby has blake’s smile."

Others took it upon themselves to re-edit the photo, Photoshopping the faces of Ryan's iconic superhero character, Deadpool, and his faux-nemesis, Hugh Jackman, onto the infant's body:



Lively and Reynolds
have been open about their decision to prioritize their children's privacy in the past. In addition to their newest bundle of joy, couple share two other daughters James, 4, and Inez, 2.

"Ryan had a nice, normal upbringing, and we want our kids to have the same normal life that we had," Lively explained to Speaking to Marie Claire in 2016, per ELLE. "We don't ever want to rob them of what we had, because we'd feel really selfish."

The actress also addressed her and Reynolds' philosophy when it comes to shielding their daughters from the paparazzi.

"I'd rather not have to deal with it at all, but we knew the lifestyle we were getting into, and while it's hard … it's another thing when it's our child," she said. "[James] didn't have the opportunity to make a decision about what she wants."
