Blake Lively Gushes Over Ryan Reynolds’ Muscles, Calling Him “Yummy”

Blake Lively shared a new Instagram selfie with husband Ryan Reynolds, giving fans a playful look at the couple’s affectionate dynamic. In the photo posted on Wednesday, May 27, Lively appeared makeup-free and relaxed while tanning, wearing a blue tank top with a strapless neckline and floral details, black sunglasses, and her blonde hair tied up. Reynolds, meanwhile, was photographed in a white tank top that highlighted his arms, along with tan pants, layered necklaces, a gold watch, and brown sunglasses as he ate homemade cookies and raspberries. Lively captioned the post “Delicious @vancityreynolds,” with Justin Bieber’s “Yummy” playing in the background, adding to the lighthearted tone of the image.

The post comes as Lively has remained in the public spotlight for both her personal life and legal developments tied to the film It Ends With Us. Earlier in May, she returned to the Met Gala on the same day that her legal dispute with co-star and director Justin Baldoni was resolved. On May 4, Lively and Baldoni reached a settlement just days before the case was scheduled to go to trial. Lively had accused Baldoni of sexual harassment, orchestrating a smear campaign against her, and creating a hostile work environment. Baldoni denied the allegations and later filed a counter lawsuit, which was dismissed in June 2025.

Following the settlement, both sides issued a joint statement through their attorneys saying that the film remained a source of pride and that they stood behind the goal of raising awareness for domestic violence survivors. The statement also acknowledged that the process had been difficult and said the concerns raised by Lively deserved to be heard. It expressed hope that the resolution would allow everyone involved to move forward constructively and in peace, including fostering a respectful environment online.

Lively’s return to the Met Gala also drew attention for her fashion choice. She wore an archival pastel Versace gown featuring shades of butter yellow, pink, and purple, with crystal embellishments on the corset and a dramatic train. The appearance marked another high-profile moment for the actress, who continues to attract attention both for her style and for her relationship with Reynolds, with whom she has frequently shared affectionate posts over the years.

The latest selfie reinforces the couple’s public image as one of Hollywood’s most enduring and playful pairings, even as Lively navigates a period of intense media attention.
