• Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively attended SNL’s 50th anniversary celebration.
• Reynolds apparently made a joke regarding Lively and Baldoni’s legal drama.
• Fans of the couple reacted enthusiastically to the moment.

Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively made their first public appearance in a while at the 50th anniversary celebration of Saturday Night Live on Sunday. The couple attended the star-studded event amid Lively’s ongoing legal battle with her It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni.

During the show, hosts and SNL veterans Tina Fey and Amy Poehler acknowledged the couple in the audience. “Ryan! How’s it going?” they asked. Reynolds, known for his quick wit, responded, “Great! Why what have you heard.” Lively, who had been smiling, looked at him in shock, seemingly caught off guard by the joke.

Fans reacted enthusiastically to the moment. “Ryan and Blake are absolutely amazing,” one person tweeted. Another wrote, “Reynolds always delivers the best lines.” A fan even joked, “I bet even he double-checked Blake’s following list after that one.”

Lively has accused Baldoni of sexual harassment and orchestrating a smear campaign, leading to a lawsuit. Baldoni, who has denied the allegations, filed a USD 400 million lawsuit against Lively, Reynolds, and their publicist. His lawyer, Bryan Freedman, stated the actor has been “devastated” by the proceedings. The trial is set for May 2026.
