All’s fair in love and trolling wars — just ask Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
The couple, who got married in 2012, are known for their spot-on social media snark, which is more often than not aimed at their famous significant other.
For much of the duo’s relationship, the two have been savagely one-upping each other.
Reynolds has poked fun at his wife for closing her eyes in photos, committing supernatural infidelity and unfollowing him on Instagram. The Shallows star, for her part, has thrown her husband under the bus for his less than stellar motorcycle skills, flexing his muscles while saving a turtle and wanting pie instead of cake on his birthday.

When Lively and the Deadpool star’s trolling quickly escalated to include jokes about them splitting up or cheating on each other with Anna Kendrick or Gigi Hadid, fans were nervous, but they realized it was just par for the course.
The parents of daughters James, Inez and Betty are “two extremely proud and private people and keeping their relationship low-key and off radar is what’s worked so well for them over the years,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly in December 2020. “Away from the cameras, people may find it surprising to hear they’re just a regular couple who love to hang out and do the normal things together without making a song and dance about it all.”
However, playful ribbing on Instagram and Twitter is fair game for this internet savvy pair, which is why no one is all that surprised if the Free Guy star posts a happy birthday message to his wife featuring a video of Mariah Carey. It’s also totally normal for the Gossip Girl alum to mock Reynolds’ performance in Detective Pikachu.
“I mean, he didn’t even change his voice,” she joked on Twitter in 2019. “It just sounds like him.”
The loving wisecracks might be standard practice for these two, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t hilariously funny for the A Simple Favor actress to make fun of her husband’s celebrity alcohol brand, Aviation Gin, only to have him throw shade her way when she launched her own line of non-alcoholic mixers in September 2021.
Occasionally, the couple even team up to troll for a good cause.
After Gerard Butler admitted he didn’t know what Free Guy was because he doesn’t watch Reynolds’ movies in a September 2021 interview, the Definitely, Maybe actor and Lively used the headline-making fake feud to raise money for the American Civil Liberties Union and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund.

When Ryan Said He Would Use Blake as a ‘Human Shield’
Ah, the early days of the Reynolds’ savagery. The Deadpool actor told David Letterman shortly after the couple’s first daughter, James, was born that his priorities had shifted. “I used to say to [Blake], ‘I would take a bullet for you. I could never love anything as much as I love you.’ I would say that to my wife,” he said during a February 2015 appearance on The Late Show. “And the second I looked in that baby’s eyes, I knew in that exact moment that if we were ever under attack, I would use my wife as a human shield to protect that baby.”

When Blake Made Fun of Ryan’s Lack of Motorcycle Skills
Reynolds shared an Instagram photo of a man riding a motorcycle without holding on with the caption, “Don’t try this at home,” in May 2015. His wife quickly took him down a peg with her reply: “…Because he already tried!! @vancityreynolds just posted some great advice, but he forgot to mention one small detail. #Hypocrite#I’dGive70dollarsColdHardCashToWhoeverCouldResistHim #TooInLike.”

When Ryan Claimed Jake Gyllenhaal Was a Better Cook Than Blake
“My wife is very good at cooking, and Jake might just be a little bit better,” Reynolds said of his Life costar during a March 2017 Good Morning America appearance. When host Michael Strahan suggested the Gossip Girl alum might not be happy about his assessment, the Definitely, Maybe actor quipped: “I’m moving out at the end of the month. I’m actually moving out right now, under this desk. I’m already making plans.”

When Blake Called John Legend the ‘Best Man I Know’
Being recognized as one of Time’s 100 most influential people should be an honor, but Legend totally stole Reynolds’ thunder in April 2017. “Congratulations to the most influential person in my life,” Lively teased on Instagram. “The best man I know… you deserve this @time 100 honor … If only my husband wasn’t blocking you in this shot. I’m so sorry @johnlegend.”

When Blake Mistook Ryan Gosling for Her Hubby
The Proposal star shaded his wife when he cropped her out of an Instagram photo on her birthday, but the Age of Adeline actress got her revenge once her husband’s b-day rolled around in October 2017. “Happy birthday, baby,” Lively captioned a pic of Reynolds and Gosling, with the former cropped out of the shot.

When They Traded Barbs About Affairs on Valentine’s Day
Lively poked fun at Reynolds over not knowing how to use a cellphone in February 2018. “Why won’t this damn app swipe right?!?!!” she wrote in his Instagram comments, to which he wittily replied: “Because it’s the E-Harmony app.” The Shallows star played along. “Can you show me how to download that? Ever since Ashley Madison closed I’ve been so lonely,” she responded. The Just Friends actor cheekily retorted: “Awww. Happy Valentine’s Day.”

When They Reflected on the Good Times
Lively applauded an intricate braid she styled in an April 2018 Instagram post, completely overlooking Reynolds in the process. “If there’s one thing I’m infinitely proud of in this picture, it’s the incredible hair styling that I did on myself,” she wrote. He commented: “I was so happy back then.”

When Blake Unfollowed Ryan
This was more than a trolling moment. It was a work obligation! Lively briefly unfollowed a number of accounts — including her husband’s — to promote her film A Simple Favor in May 2018. “Definitely stings. It’s a terrible way to find out that I’ve been kicked out of the house, to be honest,” the Green Lantern actor said when asked about the move. “Absolutely terrible. I don’t know where rage like that comes from.”

When Blake Admitted She Keeps Secrets From Ryan
Reynolds jokingly prodded his wife to share the plot of A Simple Favor in May 2018, but the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants star didn’t fall for his pleas. “Oh darling, of all the secrets I’m keeping from you, this should be the LEAST of your concerns,” she tweeted. “trust me.”

When Blake Wanted to Cheat on Ryan With Anna Kendrick
“@annakendrick47 is the hotter, female(r) version of my husband… so would it reaaaally count as cheating??” Lively asked her Instagram followers about her Simple Favor costar in June 2018. Reynolds took the blow in stride. “The most ambitious crossover event in history,” he replied. “I’ll miss you both. Tell my story.”
