Ryan Reynolds reveals what it’s like watching Blake Lively film romantic scenes

Us everyday people sometimes just are totally unable to fathom dating an actor.

Outside of the bravest soldiers around, polyamorous people, it’s completely foreign for a normal part of existence to be your partner kissing other people.

This is before you even get into the complexities of having to watch them film scenes where they profess their undying love for the other characters in the film.

For Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, two of the biggest movie stars around, this must only be heightened by the pure number of times it will have happened over the course of their relationship.

Whether it be Reynolds filming extended love sequences in Deadpool or Blake Lively in romantic films such The Age of Adaline, both actors have had to share many an on-screen kiss with others.

Lively has opened up in the past about how she feels watching her husband’s racy Deadpool extended sex scene from the first film, and it’s fair to say she’s not the biggest fan.

She told Jimmy Fallon: “I was on a plane with my baby.

“It’s kind of torture these days, because I’m on a plane and everywhere I look there’s my husband in a sex montage throughout the holidays with another woman – because everyone wants to watch Deadpool on a plane.

“So, for 14 hours having your husband have mashed potatoes eaten out of his butthole – because that’s in the film. It’s lonely, it’s a cruel and unusual form of torture.”

Reynolds, meanwhile, doesn’t seem as bothered by seeing Lively get it on with others in films.

When speaking to Elle magazine in 2017, he said: “I don't mind that as much.

"I don't mean that in a creepy way. What people don't realize is, there are 50 or 60 tired, hungry, overworked crew members standing directly behind them.”

He went on to say that, whilst he’s OK with it – he predicted the issues that would arise from his Deadpool sex scenes.

He told Elle: “The Deadpool one, I remember shooting it and thinking, 'This is going to be tough playing in the headrest of every seat on a plane’.”

The pair have been married since 2012, having been dating since 2011.

They met whilst filming Green Lantern, though at the time of filming were both in other relationships.

It’s clear though that partners being actors isn’t a complete no-no for the pair, as at that time Reynolds was married to Scarlett Johansson, and Lively was dating Gossip Girl co-star Penn Badgley.
