Currently, Ryan Reynolds is in the midst of promoting his new film “Deadpool & Wolverine.” In some interviews, he gets quite personal, even revealing the name and gender of his fourth child with Blake Lively.
In January 2023, Ryan Reynolds, 47, and Blake Lively, 36, welcomed their fourth child. Alongside James, 9, Inez, 7, and Betty, 4, their happiness was completed with their new little bundle of joy. Now, the time has come, and the actor himself has revealed the name and gender of their newest addition. He also spoke about their future family plans.
Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s Fourth Child is Named Olin – and It’s a Boy
Their child’s name is Olin! In an interview with “E! News” for his film, the proud father spoke about his great joy. “I want to thank my kids James, Inez, Betty, and Olin, who are here: I hope that if I’m lucky, this moment – the content of this film – will be the most traumatic event in your wonderful lives.” Apparently, there are some intense scenes in the movie, but his joy over his family clearly outweighs everything. The 47-year-old added, “I love that my whole family is here.” Such support is truly wonderful. After all, his wife is always by his side and also attended the film premiere in New York.
“I want to tell you that I have a son too”
In an emotional video recently shared by Ryan Reynolds on Instagram, he also reveals the gender of their fourth child. Olin Reynolds is a boy. In the Instagram post, Reynolds talks about his connection with John Bell, a fan of his football club AFC Wrexham, who turned his grief over the death of his son Jake into something positive. In the clip, Ryan says:
“I want to tell you that I have a son too, and if I love him even a tenth as much as you love Jake, then I feel like I’ve done a damn good job.”
In February, the father of four reported that life with his kids is like living in a “zoo.” But the joy is immense when there’s always something happening. The family keeps their private life very secret, so such glimpses into their family life are a true rarity.
Is More Family Planning on the Horizon?
More children don’t seem to be out of the question, as Ryan Reynolds apparently has a clear stance on the matter. “Let’s have more,” he said in an interview with “E! News.” “As many as possible. As many little heartbeats running around, destroying stuff in the house. I love it.” Statements like this bring the previously mentioned “zoo” to mind.
Blake’s thoughts on further family planning were hinted at on Instagram. A few days ago, her husband posted a photo with “the ugliest dog in England,” which he held during the film’s premiere in London, and she responded with the words: “SOS! He’s trying to get me pregnant again.” Their sense of humor is truly unique, and perhaps there will be more additions to their family in the future.
