News Mania Desk/Agnibeena Ghosh/23rd July 2024
Ryan Reynolds has finally unveiled the name of his and Blake Lively’s youngest child, and it’s Olin! The announcement came during the premiere of his latest film, Deadpool & Wolverine, held at the David H. Koch Theater in New York City on July 22.
Reynolds, 47, took a moment during his speech at the event to express his gratitude towards his wife and mother of his children. As he addressed the audience, he took the opportunity to playfully comment on Lively’s stunning outfit, causing laughter among the attendees. “Her outfit is amazing, spoiler alert,” Reynolds quipped, adding a touch of humor to the evening.
The actor then turned his attention to his family, sharing his love for his wife and their children: daughters James, 9, Inez, 7, and Betty, 4, before revealing the name of their fourth child, Olin. “I love that my entire family is here,” Reynolds said, expressing his appreciation for their support.
Blake Lively, 36, and Reynolds welcomed their fourth child on February 12, 2023. Until now, they had kept the name of their newest addition private. The couple had not disclosed the sex of their baby, making Olin’s name a delightful surprise for their fans.
Earlier this year, Reynolds had teased the name of their youngest during an appearance on the Today show. Co-host Savannah Guthrie humorously suggested that Taylor Swift might have been hinting at the baby’s name in her lyrics. This was a nod to Swift’s song “Betty” from her 2020 album Folklore, which features the names of Reynolds and Lively’s older children.
Reynolds played along with the joke, saying, “We always wait for Taylor to tell us what the child’s name is, and I’ll say this: We’re still waiting.” His comments highlighted the playful and private nature of the couple’s approach to sharing personal details with the public.
Although Reynolds and Lively have been relatively private about their family life, they did mention on the Today show in 2022 that they opted not to find out the sex of their baby before birth. This decision aligns with their tradition of keeping some aspects of their personal lives under wraps.
As the excitement around Deadpool & Wolverine builds up with its release on July 25, the revelation of their child’s name adds a personal touch to Reynolds’ promotional activities. The couple’s approach to privacy and family life continues to fascinate fans, who eagerly follow their updates.
In the meantime, Reynolds and Lively’s family continues to be a source of joy and inspiration, with the couple balancing their busy careers with their roles as parents. As the world eagerly awaits the release of Reynolds’ latest film, the introduction of baby Olin adds a heartwarming chapter to their family story.
