As the dynamic duo of Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively consistently proves, one of the perks of cohabitation is having a built-in photographer. Over the weekend, Reynolds celebrated the Creative Arts Emmy win for his Hulu series “Welcome to Wrexham,” showcasing the couple’s playful dynamic.
The untelevised ceremony prompted many stars to record acceptance speeches from the comfort of their homes, including Ryan and his co-creator Rob McElhenney. True to Reynolds’s comedic nature, he accepted the award in character as Deadpool, humorously referring to himself as “Mr. Lively” and playfully advocating for a VFX Oscar. Naturally, Reynolds couldn’t resist slipping in a mention of his upcoming project, Deadpool 3, given his affinity for marketing.
Reynolds, clad in a corduroy suit and casual slippers, shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse on Instagram Stories. In the absence of traditional red-carpet photos, he posted an elevator shot, crediting his “Instagram boyfriend” Blake Lively for the capture. Humorously admitting to the casual footwear, Reynolds quipped, “They won’t see below the waist.”
In a candid revelation, Reynolds explained that he recorded the video before actually winning the Emmy, leaving him without a physical award to pose with. Resourceful as ever, he borrowed friend and Deadpool 3 co-star Hugh Jackman’s Emmy, playfully highlighting the borrowed trophy in the Instagram post.
A keen eye will notice a clever detail in the photo—Reynolds, ever the prankster, slyly placed the detached sphere from the Emmy onto Lively’s arm, adding an extra touch of humor to the celebratory moment.
