17 Times Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively Expertly Trolled Each Other

May their love never die and their sense of humor never fade

Some couples prefer to show how much they love each other with grand romantic gestures or long, effusive love letters, but Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively prefer to show their affection in a much more relatable way: by trolling the heck out of each other as much as possible.

From sarcastic captions to unflattering candid photos to poking fun at each other on talk shows, check out Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively's best trolling moments below.

When Ryan Sent Out an APB for Blake During Super Bowl LVIII

Though the rest of the world was dialed in to the fact that Blake Lively was cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs alongside Taylor Swift during the Super Bowl on Feb. 11, Ryan was seemingly out to lunch.

"Has everyone seen the #Deadpool trailer? Also has anyone seen my wife?” the 47-year-old actor hilariously posted on Instagram, midway through the NFL title game.

Of course, the internet ate it all up, with fans even commenting with gifs of Blake at the game.

Not to be outdone, the Gossip Girl alumna responded a few days later with a picture of herself, nonchalantly posed next to the Deadpool trailer Ryan had in his post.

"Honey, I'm home." Blake wrote, wearing a bright red sweater and knowing grin. "My day was good. Yours?" she added.

When Ryan Celebrated Blake's Birthday with Some Candid Photos

In honor of his wife's 32nd birthday in 2019, Reynolds paid tribute to her in his trademark way — with humor. The Deadpool actor shared a series of photos of a pregnant Lively looking not-so-camera ready (but as Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld pointed out in the comments, "There are no bad pictures of @blakelively").

The silly snaps mostly feature Lively smiling with her eyes closed, while Reynolds looks directly into the camera beside her.

When Blake Gave Ryan His Most Valuable Possession

Reynolds appeared to take a break from his trolling tendencies and show off his sentimental side earlier in August 2019, when he revealed "the greatest present" his wife has ever given him. In a lengthy Instagram caption, he explained the significance of a painting by Los Angeles-based artist Danny Galieote that Lively had commissioned for him, which features a paperboy walking with a dog down a residential street.

"My first job was delivering newspapers for the Vancouver Sun," he wrote in the caption. "The house in the painting is my childhood home. … There are a lot of Easter eggs in the painting, including my idol, John Candy on the front page of the newspaper."

"This piece of art is the greatest present my wife has ever given me," he continued, prompting us to hold our breath and wonder if perhaps his trolling days were done. Unfortunately for Lively, it doesn't seem like it.

"If there's ever a fire, I'm grabbing this first. I'll come back for Blake," he ended the note. (What about the kids, Ryan!?)

When He Opened Up About His "Mercenary" Sex Life with Blake

During an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the Deadpool actor chatted with host Ellen about his and Blake's daughters.

"That happened from sex, FYI," Reynolds joked when Ellen asked about his youngest kid.

"So you've only had sex the twice?" DeGeneres asked.

"Just the two times, yeah," he replied. "It's a mercenary job, it's just clinical. Hoping for a third soon."

When Blake Poked Fun at Ryan's Parenting Skills

In a hilarious promo video for his animated feature Pokémon: Detective Pikachu, dubbed Outside the Actors Studio, the father of two describes his process of "vanish[ing] into my roles."

"I was on my way to pick up my daughters from school when I heard that I got the role," Reynolds said of Inez and James. "I didn't show up at school because Detective Pikachu, he doesn't know who those two little girls are. Who are they?"

The video then shows Reynolds' wife, who tells the camera, "They're our daughters. He just left them."

The actor then jokes that while his daughters "may never see their dad again," they'll be able to see Detective Pikachu on-screen this summer. But Lively promptly interjects with a laugh, saying, "We're not going."

When He Joked About the State of Their Marriage

After a tabloid claimed their marriage was on the rocks due to their hectic schedules, Reynolds responded by saying he was spending plenty of time with his wife. In fact, maybe too much!

"I wish," Reynolds wrote on Twitter. "I could use a little 'me time.' "

When a follow-up headline commented on him and Lively stepping out with his mother for the A Quiet Place premiere amid split rumors, he once again made it clear that our fears were ridiculous by spinning the whole thing into a joke, tweeting, "We're never splitting. She'll always be my mom. No matter how much jazz-cabbage she smokes with her rollerblading friends."

When He Made a Strategic Birthday Post

And yet, even that tiny portion of Lively's face is still more glam than we could ever hope to be in our lives.

When Ryan Picked the Wrong Song to Play While Blake Was in Labor

Take it from Reynolds: If you ever find yourself in a delivery room, please, whatever you do, do not play Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On." "It was like steak knives came out of her eyes," the actor recalled of his wife's reaction to his hospital room prank. "She was like, 'Are you f—ing kidding me?'"

When She Questioned His Choice of Birthday Dessert

"Who is the lost soul that selects birthday pie?" she demanded to know, adding, "I honestly can't believe we're still married."

When She Humored Him at a Yankees Game

"I love meeting fans," the actress playfully captioned this shot of their parents' night out.

When Ryan Confessed His Undying Love For Their Children

After the birth of their first daughter, Ryan was over the moon and overwhelmed by the amount of love he had for his little bundle of joy. In fact, he went on Late Night with David Letterman to talk about how baby James had changed the dynamics of his and Blake's relationship.

"I used to say to her, 'I would take a bullet for you. I could never love anything as much as I love you,'" he began. "I would say that to my wife, and then the second I looked into that baby's eyes I knew in that exact moment if we were ever under attack, I would use my wife as a human shield to protect that baby."

When Blake Praised Her Own Hairstyling Skills ... Nothing Else

Blake, in a now-deleted post, shared a romantic shot of her and her husband at the A Quiet Place premiere, in which she has her hand on Ryan's chest as he gazes lovingly at her. With any other couple, you would expect a caption about his love, support, or any of those other values that supposedly make a marriage work. But there's one thing that's more important to Blake: one-upping her hubby in their never-ending troll-fest. "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 joked in the caption (to be fair, girl's got skills).

Not to be outdone, Reynolds responded in the comments, "I was so happy back then," further fueling the split rumors that he's playfully responded to on Twitter.

When Blake Honored the Most Influential Person in Her Life

The actress' caption (on another since-deleted photo) is truly a masterclass of spousal trolling: "Congratulations to the most influential person in my life. 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 She Opened Up About Having to Watch 'Deadpool' on a Plane

The only thing more awkward than having to watch your husband in a "sex montage through the holidays with another woman," while on a plane is having to then re-tell that story to everyone who asks how your Father's Day was.

When Ryan Accused Blake of Stealing His Thunder

While on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon back in 2019, Jimmy Fallon jokingly alluded to how Ryan had been elusive about Blake's pregnancy the last time they met.

Swiveling around the point like a pro, Ryan pointed blame to his wife.

"Nobody was more surprised than me, Jimmy," Ryan joked. "I thought the fact that I was wearing a denim vest would be all the rage," he said, pointing out his choice of fashion at the Detective Pikachu premiere the day the couple announced they were expecting their third baby.

"But then Blake shows up — uninvited, might I add — and I thought she was just pounding beer, but it turns out she's like six months pregnant. I've gotta start being more hands-on at home," he quipped.

When She Had Some Great News to Share with Ryan for His First Father's Day

In a now-deleted Instagram post, Blake had some good news to share with her hubby in celebration of his first Father's Day.

"Since the day our baby was born, I've felt so strongly in my heart that you were most likely the father," Lively wrote. Awww.

When Ryan Made Fun of Blake's Make-Under

Blake Lively was pictured hard at work on the set of The Rhythm Section in 2019, and her hubby couldn't pass up on the moment. "#NoFilter" he simply wrote on Instagram.
