Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively fans anxiously await the couple’s fourth child’s name. However, the IF star claims he would tell fans, except one thing is holding him back. He says he and Blake are waiting for pop star Taylor Swift to tell them the baby’s name—nothing like shifting the blame to change the subject.
Ryan Reynolds & Blake Lively Thrive on Privacy
Blake and Ryan have been a very quiet celebrity couple from the start. In 2012, the pair secretly married, shocking their fans. However, privacy is one key ingredient in maintaining their relationship and family. They thrive on it, especially when it comes to their family.
Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are known for their efforts to shield their children and family from the media. When asked about their fourth baby’s name during a Today Show interview, Ryan didn’t miss a beat. He immediately responded with a witty excuse, showcasing their humorous approach to privacy.
People Magazine writes that he cannot reveal the baby’s name for one very good reason. He jokes that he and Blake Lively are still waiting for her best pal, pop star Taylor Swift, to reveal the name to them.
Taylor Swift Put On The Spot By Ryan
“We always wait for Taylor to tell us the child’s name, and I’ll say this: We’re still waiting. She’s a prolific writer — I mean, what are we doing here?”
In the past, Blake Lively stated that she was determined to keep her kids’ photos out of the media. However, occasionally, someone manages to get one, and it infuriates her.
Taylor Swift’s hit song “Betty” pays tribute to Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s three daughters by featuring all of the girls’ names, Betty, 4, Ines, 7, and James, 9, throughout the song. So it only makes sense that mom, Blake’s best gal pal, does a little musical tribute to baby number 4; in fact, she likely has, and fans just haven’t figured it out yet.
But don’t expect Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds to share the name anytime soon, even if Taylor Swift fans do happen to figure it out. The couple loves keeping as many people as possible in the dark about their lives, and they do not plan to change anytime soon.
