Truth About Blake Lively Warning Anna Kendrick Against 'Flirting' With Ryan Reynolds

Blake Lively is not warning her co-star Anna Kendrick to stop “flirting” with actor- husband Ryan Reynolds, despite rumors. Gossip Cop debunked reports stating that Lively is unhappy with Kendrick engaging in “flirty banter” with Reynolds.

NW magazine used the example of Kendrick teasing Reynolds at the 2018 Teen Choice Awards held in August where she won the award for favorite Twitter personality. “I know that Ryan Reynolds was nominated, so in your face, Ryan,” she joked.

The magazine then gave an example of a 2015 incident where Reynolds was asked what it was like kissing Kendrick in their 2014 movie “ The Voices ” and the actor responded, “Like taking your face to Awesometown.” The actress had interrupted by saying, “That IS the Kendrick-train guarantee. With local stops in Awkwardville and Tolerableshire.”

The magazine quoted a source saying that Lively “doesn’t think the exchange was appropriate.” The source added she doesn’t like Kendrick “honing in on her territory” by trolling Reynolds on social media.

“Blake has got to be a little jealous. In fact, I heard she’s asked Ryan to tell Anna to curb it. You can bet she told Ryan to nip it too,” the source added.

The magazine, however, failed to mention the ongoing social media exchange between the three, the topic of which is Reynolds being jealous of Lively’s close friendship with her co-star.

“Yo @VancityReynolds my plan to steal your wife is already going so well that she’s getting the two of us confused. HASHTAG MRS STEAL YOUR GIRL,” Kendrick wrote on Twitter in May.

The following month, Lively said on Instagram that Kendrick “is the hotter, female(r) version of my husband… so, would it reaaaally count as cheating??”

Kendrick responded by saying “So glad we’re finally taking this public… I let Ryan have Deadpool. He can give me this.”

In July, when Reynolds was asked about Kendrick’s love for his wife, he answered by saying, “I know a lot of guys that would be fine with that but not me, I would like to hang onto her. Yeah, please let’s not do that… I mean, she’d be well taken care of with Anna though, I think she’s got the goods, yeah, but no, access denied,” Entertainment Tonight reported.

The premise of the report seems untrue as Lively and Kendrick have actually been teaming up to tease Reynolds about their close friendship.

The couple made their first public appearance together at Comic-Con in San Diego in 2011 and tied the knot at Boone Hall Plantation in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, in 2012. They celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary on Sunday.
