ITW: Blake Lively is pushing Ryan Reynolds for a proposal, but he’s all “meh”

This is just a light “what’s happening in their relationship” piece from In Touch Weekly. It’s only really noteworthy because most tabloids are pretty friendly with Blake (and her publicist, I would imagine), and most of the stories about her relationships read like pro-Lively propaganda. Maybe this story is a Blake plant, but I don’t see how this really benefits her. It does reinforce the idea that Blake is a “Rules” girl, though. Blake and Ryan Reynolds have been together for some-odd four or five months. It’s time to start thinking about proposing, Ryan!

It’s only been just over a year since he filed for divorce from Scarlett Johansson, but Blake Lively is already turning the heat on Ryan Reynolds to propose.

“They haven’t even been together six months, and she is already talking marriage and babies,” says an outraged friend. The pal also adds that if she is expecting a ring anytime soon, she’s in for a huge disappointment.

“Ryan cares for Blake, but he rushed into marriage before, and he is still not really over that heartbreak.” Ouch.

I think it’s far more likely that Blake plays it cool as far as commitment goes. Like, I think Blake refers to Ryan as her “boyfriend” and she keeps some stuff at his apartment, but – in keeping with The Rules – she still maintains an air of mystery, and she plays the accessibility game with him. Or I could be totally wrong and they’re just completely loved up and Ryan is a little gun-shy and that irritates Blake. Who knows? I don’t think Blake will end up marrying Ryan, though. But I’m not going to wager money on it.

    Gerbil’s got game.

  2. Sarko says:

    According to ITW, wasn’t he marrying Sandra Bullock this time last year?

  3. kazoo says:

    Hahaha, says an “outraged” friend. How easy would it be to write these stupid stories for tabloids.

    Blake looks really old in the first picture. Has anyone ever accused her of lying about her age? I wouldn’t be surprised…

  4. Madrid says:

    I think he won´t marry anyone anytime soon, my impression is that he had enough for a while

  5. Maya says:

    Why does Blake pose so hard? Her face in these pictures is just bugging me.

  6. Marjalane says:

    If he does get married any time soon, it’ll probably be to have kids, so why would he want to have them with someone as fame hungry as this pose hard? She’s even younger than Scarjo was and there were no babies forthcoming from that marriage.

  7. Aiobhan says:

    First, I want to see the long form birth certificate for Blake Lively because from those photos I refuse to believe that she is twenty-four. From the first hard pose that you have of her she looks like the mom from American Horror Story.

    Why would anyone want to marry or date Ryan Reynolds is beyond me? Ryan Gosling on the other hand…

    • Zelda says:

      Yeah, I thought that was Helen Hunt at first.

      I’m assuming she changed her age so she could get that job playing a highschooler.

      I’m going with a solid 28-30.

    • Sarko says:

      I think it’s the intense weight loss
      She was the youngest in Sisters of the Travelling Pants and her HS yearbook bears this fact out. Word is the school was not too pleased she took some time out from her final year to do the movie.
      The make up here is tres harsh though.

    • D says:

      Yeah, there’s video footage of her at her high school prom from right after she did sisterhood and yearbook pictures so unless there’s some grand conspiracy that the school was in on or something I’m gonna say she just photographs old.

      • ZenB!tch says:

        Any rumors about her lifestyle? Any aging habits that anyone knows of? Is she a smoker? Is she a drinker? Does she starve? Is she on diet pills*? Did she suddenly lose a lot of weight? A lot of those things can be aging.

        I don’t think she is pulling a CZJ, looking at her again, the clothes are aging… she is the Chanel spokesmodel and I’ve always thought Chanel was a line for old ladies and I don’t mean 40. I’m 40, I mean 70. She also has that harsh fuchsia lipstick on and nothing else.

        *I truly believe actresses do not purposely become addicts – its a need to be so thin.

    Shoulda stayed with Leo! He wouldn’t of married her either but at least she’d be getting more “perks” from that relationship.

    Leo seems like he’s be a sugar daddy while RR just seems too into his own career.

    • ZenB!tch says:

      Leo is what totally turned me off of her. Before I was like “meh, she’s not very pretty but whatev, she just some WB girl.” I thought it was gross that woman in her early 20s was out with a creepy worn out old dude like Leo.

      Leo is almost my age (looks older). I don’t know that I would go there why would she other than her career.

  9. Dhavy says:

    Why would anyone marry her? I’m not saying he’s a prize but she seems like she’s been around the block too many times/
    as far as her being all cool about it, if she really was she would have stayed with Leo, no one is more scared of marriage than him

    • EmmaStoneWannabe says:

      Agreed. It’s hard to look at a girl so young and think she’s already been ‘run’ hard and left up to dry. (Putting it politely.)

    • D says:

      Are you trying to say that guys dont want to marry a girl who’s had a few sexual partners before them? I’m pretty sure thats patently false. Plus, she’s hardly a lohan-type who’s having coked up one night stands all over the place.

      • Gorry says:

        @D IKR
        I mean Blake can’t be as flaw free as Emma Stone evidently. /Sarcasm Off
        Girl’s haters won’t quit. Love it.

      • ZenB!tch says:

        Hey! The Cracken has to make a living somehow!

        This one still has a job.

      • ZenB!tch says:

        In all seriousness, it’s not how many men she may or may not have been with (I only know of her allegedly gay costar, Leo and Ryan)it is that she comes across as a user/fame whore.

      • ZenB!tch says:

        @Gorry – I know I’m in the minority but I don’t get all the Emma worship. I am Emma neutral. I’m still waiting to be wowed by anyone under 30 (male or female). However, Emma, Leighton, Jennifer Lawrence, et.al. don’t have that desperate air like Blake does.

        Maybe Rooney Mara but she’s in her late 20s she HAS to strike now if she wants to be a leading lady.

  10. sallyreo says:

    Like in his movie “buying the cow”?

  11. kimberly says:

    I’ve always wondered if Blake came out of the womb with those laugh lines?

    It’s like she’s always had them even in SOTTP movies back in the day.

  12. Kerfuffles says:

    She looks like hell in these pictures.

  13. UKHels says:

    I have to say something about Ryan Reynolds

    I totally don’t get him facially and have no idea if he’s a good actor or not but he was on Top Gear (UK prog) on Sunday and he was sweet, charming, witty and funny

    and I’m like, dude you’re not so bad

  14. Shamozzle says:

    This chick does nothing but try to bang famous men to further her embarrassing career. Its evident Ryan is just shagging this mattress back to get over being burnt by the droan that is Scarjo.

    Blake does just what Sacrjo does lures men with this fake sugary facade all for their own gain.

    Bler. “hollywood” types!

  15. ZenB!tch says:

    What is wrong with his hair… is it always like that? I may be able to tell the Ryan’s apart now… normal hair and AIGH!

    I don’t get her appeal.

    Don’t The Rules tell you to postpone sex?

  16. truthshot says:

    she is so cute.

    unfortunately (and as a few recent guys have discovered) the lights are on but no one’s home.
