We all know what’s going down with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds. We know because Blake wants us to know, and because Ryan is to hypnotized by Blake’s biscuits to care about her famewhore ways right now. Blake and Ryan (RAKE) spent Thanksgiving together. They shacked up in Boston together. They’re apartment-hunting in NYC. They vacationed with Muffy & Boomer in Connecticut. They go to ice cream socials and little out-of-the-way bed & breakfasts, where they are photographed mid-makeout session. And now they’ve spent Christmas together in Canada. Us Weekly SOMEHOW managed to get all of the details:
It was a crisp 35 degrees in Vancouver on December 20. So naturally, Blake Lively was all bundled up while picking out a birthday cake with her new boyfriend, Ryan Reynolds, for his dad at Original Cupcakes. But the Gossip Girl star really warmed up when the Canada native selected a few special treats just for her.
“The salesperson told them Jay-Z had come in a few days earlier and bought an eggnog cupcake for Beyonce,” a source tells Us, “So Ryan ordered six of them for Blake!”
That kind of simple romantic gesture is one way the actor, 35, has won over Blake after two months of dating. And sources say Lively, 24, is just as giving.
“She’s making an equal, is not greater, effort to make Ryan happy,” says one insider of the couple. Indeed, a caring girlfriend who whips up homemade dinners and prefers home-movie nights to premieres seems to be an ideal antidote for Reynolds after his rocky marriage to Scarlett Johansson.
“Scarlett treated Ryan badly, so he loves the comfort that Blake provides,” says the source. “It’s like, ‘You were on the cover of Vogue and you want to cook me dinner? Yes, please!’”
While in Vancouver, a Reynolds family dinner was on the itinerary, and a trip to the Granville Island Public Market, where Lively bonded with Reynolds’ mom, Tammy. “Blake and Ryan held hands and Tammy had her hand on Blake’s back as they walked around,” says an eyewitness. “They laughed all the way to the car – and Blake let Tammy have the front seat!”
The duo is making the most of their holiday time together – “They love to sit at home and cuddle,” adds the insider. “Those two are over-the-moon in love.”

“They love to sit at home and cuddle.” Just gag me. I know, I know. I’m often accused of thinking, talking and writing like a dude, but really, Ryan needs a much butcher image than cuddlefesting with his Gossip Girl. That being said, I get it. Blake is really putting some effort into this relationship, and I do believe that she and Ryan are truly loved up, in every sense. Now, do I believe that “Scarlett treated Ryan badly, so he loves the comfort that Blake provides”? Eh. I think Ryan is one of those guys who likes “traditional” girls. He wants a girlfriend/wife who will make a fuss over him, cook for him, drop everything to be with him, and act like he’s the center of her universe. Bless her heart, Scarlett didn’t do that. Blake is playing along, though.

His dog is the best part of this undynamic duo.
LMAO so true! 🙂
Yep you said it. I bet the dog has the best personality of the three of them.
I only click on Rake stories in the hope that there will be a picture of that dog!
me too! hahaha
me too! hahaha! without the dog, they are lukewarm, undercooked oatmeal. haha.
Is it just me or are his eyes WAY too close together?
No, not just you. He has beady eyes set too close together. Must be a “Ryan thing” (take a look at Gosling’s eyes as well)…
By the way, that second picture (first one of Reynolds) has to be one of the worst ever taken (of his face). Everything — chin, eyes, forehead — seems out of proportion!
His mouth is too small for his face!
Bwah! Everytime I think Kaiser must have exhausted her supply of pictures of Boobs looking stupid in that hideous ice dancer dress- she comes up with more! These two vanilla softserves sound like they’re living a real life Disney RomCom. May they go into eternal syndication together.
LOL & Amen!
haha! It’s like Kaiser’s Lohan pics…there’s always a wonderfully worse one in the wings.
Ugh. VOM. Could these two be more boring???? I love that goldie though, cute pup!
I love the dog’s look: Oh, another photog? May I poop on your shoe, maybe that way you’ll stop using that annoying flashy thingy in my eyes.
Nothing gives me more joy, than the puppy knowing how to give good face.
And I have always thought Scarlett was way over rated. Then she spent those few months all over Sean Penn, making sure the media got pictures.
So as I see it both girls have both made it a point to court the media.
“But the Gossip Girl star really warmed up when the Canada native selected a few special treats just for her.”
That sentence is pathetic. I dont know how people can actually pay to read that ish.
Ugh, gag me please. I mean seriously. JUST. STOP. She’s so generous, letting his mom sit in the front. *eye roll*
Sit at home and “cuddle” or sit at home and…..
Somewhere ScarJo is plotting her revenge…
…against Lively and maybe you too — for calling her ScarJo (how dare you!).
I don’t know why she would feel entitled to after her behaviour with Sean Penn, but she may already be exacting her revenge. If I’m to believe that Lively’s pr has been working Us Weekly, then I’m also inclined to believe that Scarjo’s people have been aggressively working The Star and InTouch.
On my book she deserves some credit for having dumped Leonardo Di Caprio.
Dumped Leo DiCaprio? With the awards season coming up and LDC almost a lock for an Oscar nom?!! Blake Lively would KILL for the chance to walk that red carpet, not least because every single frickin’ designer would be throwing haute couture at her like the dresses were live grenades.
She’s endured a nose job, veneers, boob job, Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants 2 and interminable seasons of Gossip Girl to climb the ladder – LDC could be the most insufferable man alive and there’s still no way she would have walked away before February 27th 2012!
True dat (I keep flipping on this issue). It seems like she could have just sucked it uo until March. Not like they’d really have to see each other that much.
Not to mention she WOULD NOT have travelled all the way to Australia for her own birthday only to supposedly dump him a week later.
ITA all this buzz about how she played Leo and he was all heartbroken is BS. I think what happened is a tale as old as time. You meet someone everything is awesome and then they have to move or go on a extended trip. Its all hearts and phone calls until you meet up again or go and visit and then BAM, the bottom drops out and its not nearly the relationship you thought it was. That’s what i believe happened anyway. Everyone think they will ONE the girl to change a player and it always ends badly.
@Tapoica
I doubt she ever thought Leo who only walked with one date in 10 years – Gisele at the Oscars – would take her down the red carpet
To be fair she did not walk the red carpet with Penn
They were also very covert with their 2 year relaysh which makes me wonder about all this
Yeah, and Australia is a f–king long way to go for a weekend.
Maybe their short term contract was over and she tried to get it renewed and was denied. Maybe she discovered the randoms and tried to “lay down the law” and that didn’t go over too well with Leo.
I am increasingly convinced that she dumped him. Or at least that it was mutual.
What you said is all very well in theory @Tapioca, and probably she thought that when they first hooked up, but when his douchey personality, doughy face and bod, and maybe even a couple infidelities were literally staring her in the face, and knowing his reputation, that it’s never going to get better…it’s hard to LIVE that, you know? Especially when you know RR’s right there waiting for you. I couldn’t do it, and I’m really ambitious. She’s probably used to being physically worshipped by her boyfriends, too. Leo was probably like, whatevs, you could stand to lose some weight, ease up on the cupcakes, bro.
Wow!! The comments are shameful. What you guys are expressing is what YOU would do if you were her. How many women have dumped Leo. A good actor does not make a good man. Blake may know what kind of man Ryan is and so does Scarlett Having seen Ryan in person he is a good looking guy. What would you all suggest he do about his eyes, stretch his head or separate his eyes. You think they are boring, but what is your life like,. She and Ryan are rich and if they wanted to jet set, I am sure they can. These people travel the world for these movie premiers. Do you not think that staying at home maybe a welcome change. If she let his mother sit up front, it is called RESPECT!! She does not need Leo to go to the Oscars, Ryan is a card carrying member of the Academy, so they can go. If she showed up, she would be photographed, just like any other star and you guys are sure spending a lot of time discussing 2 boring people you don’t seem to like!!
I don’t understand why people just assume Leo did the dumping. Why? because he is older, better known, that he dates models or that he may be nominated for an Oscar.. whatever.
Women need to grow up. Even the best player can be played. Leo is not the holly grail. It is possible that a young woman can find fault in him and not see him as this perfect ideal. I think that Blake always liked Ryan. And he her. Which is why they got together so quickly after she and Leo ended. I think she left.. and I for one don’t blame her. He is now linked to another 23 year old. There is a reason he dates them so young. They are impressed and overwhelmed that LEO D. wants them. I think Blake was smarter than people gave her credit for.
Leo is not all that to every woman.
Veneers? Really? The lengths some people will go! In the entertainment industry, boob jobs, nose jobs, extensions, veneers, and the rest are like makeup and a colour and cut for everyone else.
DiCaprio doesn’t do the red carpet with his bed partners, and neither has she. Gossipy Girl and Pants movies are hardly climbing the ladder to awards shows material. Designers have been chasing her to wear their garb in spite of this.
Australia is not that far to travel if the relationship is going well. If it’s not, it’s an eternity. I believe we can tell when they broke up by when she stopped making the trek.
Relli’s version is probably closest to the truth. He’s a player who’s not ready to grow up and she was not going to put up with being publicly humiliated like his previous girlfriends were.
Are these people in high school still? I don’t know what it is, but they just look boring. I have no idea how people can just look boring, but they do.
“She’s making an equal, is not greater, effort to make Ryan happy,” and her publicist is making a greater, albeit vain, effort to make her not look desperate with Ryan as she was with Leo. Yeesh that sentence is so pathetic sounding.
How does one go from one relationship to another so quickly? It seems she has been in a few this year. No?
does blake’s publicist ever sleep?
Nope. Judging by the way she spins things I’m guessing she writes harlequins in her spare time as well.
The dogs beautiful, most photogenic of the bunch.
I’m not buying this relashionship, notice how only People Mag and Us weekly always get the exclusives details. Plus I think Lainey states that it’s always the same photo agency which always ends up with the exclusives pics of this two. Blake loves to cook for Ryan, they love to stay at home and cuddle, they’re so madly in love, blablabla… sounds totaly like a PR plant, ludicrous.
Poor Ryan! That mean ol’ Scarlett had ambitions of her own & didn’t bake for him. Now, he has a girl, who’ll bake for him and follow him around like a puppy. Whatever! More power to this boring, famewhoring couple.
The lab is still the best thing about this relationship.
Bake. Please. Zzzzzzzzzz
I think we should call them Blyan 😀
All this PR hustle from Blake and she still hasn’t managed to draw a gossip rag cover story?
She landed the US weekly cover when she was with Leo but that was because of him.. just goes to show how little impact these two B-listers, at best, have
“Scarlett treated Ryan badly, so he loves the comfort that Blake provides,” says the source. “It’s like, ‘You were on the cover of Vogue and you want to cook me dinner? Yes, please!’”
Cash in those overtime hours ‘source’
I literally laughed out loud over that comment. Oh you posed for Vogue, oh god, how can anyone handle you Blake, oh you’re so perfect?
As Michael K on dlisted says, she looks like a Himalayan kitten. Only not nearly as cute.
LOOOL!!! The Vogue line KILLED me.
Ha! That line made me laugh and feel nauseous at the same time…
Ahahahahah! This Blake is so shameless, but not in a hateful way. I can’t recall another celeb who was so transparent about PR plugs; it’s like real life is imitating Gossip Girl. She’s entertaining, this one.
I think the quote of “love to cuddle with their cupcakes” is inaccurate. It should read, “her biscuits”. Easy mistake but I do appreciate accuracy…except in grammer and spelling.
*grammar*
lol!
I bet the sex is so BORING! And Ryan probably cries afterwards.
What I don’t understand is why these pieces ALWAYS reference Scar-Jo is it because Ryan is just boring or there is a desperation for a Brad/Jen/Angelina story?
Also Ryan R is in a weird place with these shenanigans he’s fast only been known for banging blondes 10 years younger while the other Canadian Ryan (who is as sly and media savvy as they come IMO) is cleaning up with awards and critical acclaim.
Ryan Reynolds and Ryan Gosling are 2 different men!! and there is no reason for either of them to change to be like the other.
I never bought that line of crap that Lainey’s pushing about her “hustle”. I called the whole Leo thing as a fling. It’s done and he probably pushed off once a VS model appeared.
Sorry, I’m still stuck pondering the alleged “romance” of buying her 6 eggnog cupcakes because Jay-Z bought one for Beyonce. Can someone please explain how that is romantic?
Well the cupcakes sound amazing so…LOL
Now that Jennifer Aniston was called out by her hairdresser, and admitted to hair extensions…I wonder when Blake Lively will confess about her hair extensions as well?
Two basic people have a basic and boring relationship. Color me surprised.
And way to earn your keep, Blake’s publicist!
I know a couple of boring couples. I feel like I am dying a slow death when I am with them. But, they are nice people, in solid relationships, and make each other happy. So, who am I to judge them?
If Rake/Blyan is happy with each other, for however long it lasts, I wish them well.
I used to like him in Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place (?).
That first picture of her is pretty funny.
Good for them…but why are two young, hot people acting like a middle aged married couple? True, my bf of 3 years and I spend lots of time snuggled on the couch, and have been to an ice cream social. But we’re old! And not that beautiful! And we did still did cooler stuff than that when we first started dating!
It may look boring to you, but do you know how many times these have to travel around the world. They had to promote GL for their jobs. He lived months in South Africa w/Safe House, He has the English store endorsement so he is in London to film commercials and photo shoots. He was living in Atlanta and now Boston. If you traveled like this, staying at home snuggling has got to be a welcome change.
I travel a lot for work and what you say is the truth. Now if I had a man with a body like Reynolds waiting at home, I’d never leave the bed on my days off. Just shake out the cupcake crumbs and get on with it, mhmm. . .
Blake always makes the expression like she’s Grace Kelly on the red carpet
And still no movie roles for Blake…. I don’t know why sites write about it so much. Those two are so boring.
Do you know if she wants any?? She may be looking to settle down and start a family and based on some interviews she wants a restaurant. Have you noticed how many of these people are talking about leaving this profession.
That is a very photogenic dog, he looks like he’s smiling for the camera.
I’ll ask ONE MORE TIME:
Who did Blake blow to get anyone to work this hard to make her happen?
I don’t understand why the Blake/Ryan romance and the Eva/Ryan romance all seem like high school stuff. Cupcakes and Disneyland.
Why are we never getting really HOT stories of heated sex and romantic dinners. These romances seem so tamed and boring.
NO JUNGLE SEX whatsoever. Which makes me laugh because women always gushing over these two men. And yet you never hear any stories about the sexy.
wonder why.
One of the many reasons this site is so awesome: Kaiser’s gift for selecting the best photos of our favourite morons. Lively looks like such an idiot in the first photo. And THAT DOG!! The expression is priceless. I can’t stop laughing.
Ashamed to can oly get Headlines for dating IT actors..while Carey Mulligan and Emma Stone are getting are the good roles…
LOL!
I just read Lainey Today…She is obess with Fake Lively.
I meant Ashame she can only get Headlines…
Apparently Lainey isn’t the only one.
She’s doing well for an actress on a lame arse tv show.
Ryan, Hightail it back yo Sandra she is the one for you. Blake will stop baking for you when some one else comes along
