Ryan Reynolds shares shocking Taylor Swift godmother revelation

Ryan Reynolds has revealed a touching insight into his family's bond with Taylor Swift, sharing details about her role as godmother to his children.

Reynolds and his wife, Blake Lively, who tied the knot in 2012, are parents to four kids-James, 9, Inez, 8, Betty, 5, and Olin, 1.

Swift, known for her close friendships with the couple, made a witty and public declaration of her godmother status in a way only she could.

Swift made headlines when she humorously announced her godmother role through Instagram.

While promoting Reynolds' hit movie Deadpool & Wolverine, she cheekily wrote: "Shout out to Wade Wilson, aka my godkids' sperm donor!"

The post quickly went viral, garnering laughs and adoration from fans. Reflecting on the moment, Reynolds joked in an interview with Deadline, "I need that one on my gravestone, actually."

Reynolds confirmed that Swift is "godparent to my daughters" but didn't specify if her role extends to their youngest child, Olin.

He also acknowledged how Swift's playful endorsement likely contributed to the film's massive success, saying, "You could probably quantify a box office boost just from Taylor doing something like that."

The film, Deadpool & Wolverine, shattered records to become the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all time, crossing the billion-dollar mark globally.

Swift's relationship with Reynolds and Lively is nothing short of special. In 2020, the pop superstar paid tribute to their children in her song "Betty," which also name-dropped James and Inez.

The families have shared many public moments of support, highlighting their enduring friendship.

Additionally, Shawn Levy, the director behind several of Reynolds' films, revealed that he is the godfather to Olin. This close-knit group underscores the deep connections that have grown between the Reynolds-Lively household and their trusted circle.

A Peek Behind the Scenes

The family's involvement with Reynolds' projects extended to Deadpool & Wolverine, where Blake Lively portrayed Ladypool, and their daughter Inez had a cameo as Kidpool.

Reynolds shared a behind-the-scenes photo with Inez, humorously writing, "Only costar I argued with. Most people think Kidpool is the dirtiest. But she's also pretty good at backtalk and never taking out the trash."

While Reynolds is famed for his humor, his neighbor Martha Stewart recently described him as more serious in person. "He's not so funny in real life," Stewart remarked during an event.

Reynolds responded with his trademark wit on social media, writing, "I'd disagree with her. But I tried that once. The woman is unexpectedly spry. She really closed the gap after a mile or so."

Despite his public persona, sources say Reynolds values his private time and prefers a quieter life when off-camera, an approach that helps him manage his well-known struggles with anxiety.

Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, and Taylor Swift's connection continues to inspire admiration, showcasing a friendship that thrives on mutual respect, humor, and heartfelt gestures.
