Blake Lively had the perfect answer to Ryan Reynolds’ playful troll during the Super Bowl

Reynolds has consistently demonstrated his mastery of banter, and with over a decade of marriage, it’s evident that Lively knows how to navigate his humor.

The couple frequently engages in playful banter through social media, and last weekend was no exception. It all began when the trailer for Reynolds’ upcoming Deadpool movie was released during the Super Bowl, prompting the star to seize the opportunity and promote the trailer on Instagram.

Reynolds shared a picture of himself next to the TV, holding a beer and grinning as his character appeared on the screen. In his caption, he wrote, “Has everyone seen the #Deadpool trailer?” but he didn’t stop there. He added another question: “Also, has anyone seen my wife?”

As it turned out, most people had seen Reynolds’ wife, as she was accompanying Taylor Swift to Las Vegas to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce. Lively and Swift entered the Allegiant Stadium together to cheer on the Kansas City Chiefs, and footage of their reactions quickly went viral after being broadcast on live TV.

Reynolds later provided another update on his Instagram Story, sharing a picture that Lively had sent him as she overlooked the football field. The caption humorously read, “Found my wife,” showcasing Lively’s accessorizing with a bracelet featuring Deadpool and Wolverine masks, a nod to the new film.

Fans responded to Reynolds’ post with GIFs of Lively at the game, and Lively herself remained quiet on social media until she returned home. Late at night, she finally responded on her Instagram Story with a picture of herself by the TV, echoing the spot where Reynolds had been just one day earlier. With Deadpool displayed on the TV, she playfully responded to Reynolds’ joke, writing, “Honey I’m home,” and added, “My day was good. Yours?”

Fans praised Lively’s response, acknowledging the couple’s humor and playfulness. One person shared their respective posts on X, noting, “Ryan and Blake Lively are the cutest and funniest couple I’ve ever seen.” Lively had a good day watching the game, as the team she supported secured victory to become Super Bowl champions for the second year in a row.
