Blake Lively bluntly responds to Ryan Reynolds divorce rumors
Blake Lively was quick to comment on rumors that she and Ryan Reynolds had divorced, responding cleverly to a fan on social media.
Blake Lively did not leave gossip entirely behind when her show "Gossip Girl" ended in 2012; she's in a high-profile relationship with actor Ryan Reynolds.
On Monday, Lively was singing her husband's praises on Instagram, supporting him ahead of the release of his new film, "Deadpool & Wolverine," when she was forced to refute a rumor about their 12-year marriage.
The post elicited a surprising response from a fan, who implored Lively to post more content featuring Reynolds.
"You and Ryan need to post more of each other, there were rumors going around that you two got divorced and I didn’t believe it because you two are literally the perfect couple," the person wrote.

"Haha they wish," Lively retorted, adding a crying laughing emoji.
The couple - who married in 2012 - are famous pranksters and regularly troll each other on the internet, so Lively's post lauding her husband and his flick held significance.
