Blake Lively BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
This past week has been a veritable storm of headlines and industry whispers for Blake Lively, with her career, public appearances, and especially her personal life making waves that could have lasting effects. Social media erupted after fans noticed that Ryan Reynolds did not post his customary birthday tribute for Lively when she turned 38 on August 25, 2025, a departure from their tradition of public affection online. Influencers and pop culture commentators zeroed in on the fact that Reynolds not only skipped a birthday post but that his Instagram seemed to be devoid of recent images with his wife, sparking rumors of possible marital trouble, according to a widely-circulated video by influencer Dana Bowling and echoed across outlets like the Economic Times, Times of India, and Indiatimes. The missing posts and conspicuous silence were interpreted by many as more than a mere shift in social media habits, especially when fans and online sleuths discovered you now need to scroll back over a year to find a photo of Blake on his feed, and even that was a joint post initiated by her.
People Magazine and Deadline both reported that Lively’s decision to skip the 2025 Golden Globes was linked to her ongoing legal feud with It Ends With Us director Justin Baldoni, not just personal discretion. According to Parade, she was seen in public at the Chanel Tribeca Festival Artists Dinner with her niece, where their striking resemblance became its own media moment, drawing favorable attention that contrasted with recent negative headlines.
Professionally, Lively continues to promote her new film It Ends With Us; early August saw her attend red carpet events in Copenhagen with her co-star Isabela Ferrer. Extra revealed the behind-the-scenes detail that Taylor Swift, close friend and mentor to both actresses, played a small but pivotal role in Ferrer’s audition, further drawing the ever-present Swift into this orbit of gossip and speculation.
Counterintuitively, some outlets like Times of India noted that Reynolds may have tried to quiet the rumors by including a recent photograph featuring Blake, though notably not mentioning her, in his farewell tribute to footballer Ollie Palmer, a gesture interpreted as too little, too late by some fans. Throughout the week, neither Lively nor Reynolds have addressed the split rumors publicly, but speculation has only intensified, with observers weighing the possibility of a separation announcement as imminent or assuming this is just a temporary rough patch.
The long-term impact remains to be seen, but between professional triumphs, legal drama, public appearances, and intensely scrutinized personal milestones, Blake Lively is once again the center of Hollywood’s attention, for both the right and wrong reasons.
