Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have managed to build a home more precious than their $5 million Pound Ridge mansion in the hearts of fans with their endearing romance. Their bond is the perfect balance between Romeo and Juliet and Tom and Jerry. And despite their penchant for privacy, the couple does not miss a chance to talk about their one-of-a-kind tale. One such case was that of Ryan Reynolds on Jason Bateman’s SmartLess podcast.

The Deadpool actor redefined filterless as he left no detail untouched while revealing how he actually ended up together with Blake Lively.

The tear-jerking story of how Ryan Reynolds met Blake Lively

It is a known fact that the two actors met on the sets of what is now known to be DC’s finest disaster, Green Lantern. And Reynolds confirmed the same as he told the story to Jason Bateman. The cherry on top, however, was provided by the animation crafted by ‘Cartuna Radio.’ The actor went off track pretty quickly, as most do when they are surrounded by close friends, and turned the tale of his first meeting with Blake Lively into a laughing gimmick by ironically incorporating “tear sticks.”

The Deadpool actor said that he followed Lively to Boston and told her his sob story while tearing up so that she would stay with him. If this is true, then you better gear up for a tear stick shortage.

While it is clear that the actor was joking, it does not help the undying rumors that have stuck to him and the Gossip Girl alumni about cheating on their respective partners.

Did Lively and Reynolds start dating on the sets of Green Lantern?

No matter how joyous the couple has proved to be for each other and also the rest of the world, they did not have the brightest of beginnings. If Reynolds is to be believed, then they met on “the darkest crease in the a*us of the universe called Green Lantern.” While some recollections may defer, the two did meet on the sets, but they did not start dating until later in 2011.

If there is any truth to the Deadpool actor’s story, cross your fingers that it is the part where he uses tear sticks to manipulate Blake Lively with his sob story, because if not then it would mean the two cheated on their respective partners at that time. A rumor that has long stuck with them as it did not take long after their first meeting for Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson to get divorced and Penn Badgley and Blake Lively to break up. But then Albert Einstein did say that time is an illusion.
