Before Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds became the world's most beloved celebrity couple, thanks largely to their ability to poke fun at one another on social media, they were simply co-stars on Green Lantern, the film that later sparked their decade-long relationship.
The couple now share three daughters, James, Inez and Betty, and are best known for their extensive acting careers, impeccable red carpet appearances, and charity work (especially during COVID-19).
Read on for a look back at Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' complete relationship timeline.

Months later Reynolds filed for divorce from Johansson. While the pair at the time were notoriously private, Johansson opened up about the relationship in a 2019 interview with Vanity Fair, telling the publication: "I mean, the first time I got married I was 23 years old.

Alongside a $200,000 donation to the NAACP legal defense fund, the couple wrote: "We're ashamed that in the past we've allowed ourselves to be uninformed about how deeply rooted systemic racism is. We want to educate ourselves about other people's experiences and talk to our kids about everything, all of it... especially our own complicity."
Reynolds added in an interview with Fast Company, "It's impossible to reconcile. What we saw at the time was a wedding venue on Pinterest. What we saw after was a place built upon devastating tragedy."
