Ryan Reynolds attempt to lend support to the sports icon in a festive photo

In the latest holiday season photo, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are seen together with celebrity couple Jessica Claus and Santa Claus. They all have smiles plastered on their faces as posed for the camera. Blake Lively, expecting her fourth child, looked fresh and glowing in her festive-themed loungewear. The blonde actress added a robe to her already comfy outfit. Reynolds, on the other hand, did not wear any holiday-themed attire. Instead, he cleverly put together a sweatshirt with Pele written across his chest and a bright blue beanie.

The clever homage did not go unnoticed. Fans showered him with praise in the comments after the Canadian’s gesture. The football icon is currently admitted to a hospital after being diagnosed with colon cancer. 

Apart from the tribute, Lively’s baby bump has clearly grown bigger. She first announced her pregnancy to the world at the 10th Annual Forbes Power Women’s Summit in New York City. The couple already shares three daughters. Previously, the Deadpool star had expressed his wish to become a father to a daughter for the fourth time. The gender of the baby is still not known. However, it would be fairly easy to raise another daughter for Reynolds, considering he already had a lot of practice.
