Taylor Swift Reveals She’s Godmother To Lively & Reynolds’ Kids

Taylor Swift shared a sweet sentiment on her Instagram Story about seeing Ryan Reynolds' hard work pay off for his and Hugh Jackman's new film, Deadpool & Wolverine. Blake Lively reposted Swift's original Instagram Story and thanked her best friend for "honoring my guy(s)." "I couldn't have said it better myself," she wrote over a repost of Swift's original Instagram Story yesterday (July 25). "Which is unsurprising given that I have 14 fewer Grammys and not a single sold-out stadium world tour." In Swift’s tribute to Reynolds and Jackman, she said that watching "one of my best friends on this planet pour every bit of his heart, soul, sweat, time, energy, jokes, pain, joy, rebellion, darkness and magic into this film." Reynolds cowrote and coproduced the Marvel film, which premiered in New York City earlier this week and will hit theaters today (July 26). “He’s created the best work of his life, and the film feels like an actual joy portal, a wild escape from reality and an abs sandwich. I don’t know how he did it," she continued before moving on to Jackman. “But that’s just Hugh!” she wrote alongside a photo of herself, Jackman, Reynolds, Lively, and Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy at a Kansas City Chiefs game. “These other randoms crashed the photo and we were too polite to ask them to leave.” The singer didn’t completely leave Ryan Reynolds out of the post. “Shout out to Wade Wilson, aka my godkids’ sperm donor!” she jokingly wrote, referencing Reynolds’ Deadpool character as well as his role as Lively’s husband and the father of their four children (James, 9, Inez, 7, Betty, 4, and Olin, 17 months.) Reynolds recently revealed the name of his and Lively’s fourth child while speaking at a movie premiere. “I want to start by saying thank you to my wife, Blake, who is here,” he shared from the stage. “I want to thank my kids James, Inez, Betty, Olin, who are here. I hope that, if I’m lucky, this moment will be the most traumatic thing — that is, the contents of this movie — that happens in your wondrous life.” Ahead of revealing baby number four’s name, Ryan Reynolds joked that he was waiting for Taylor Swift to "tell us what the child's name will be." She incorporated the duo's three daughters' names into her 2020 Folklore track, "Betty."
