What We Know About Blake Lively’s 4 Kids

Blake Lively gave birth to her first daughter, James Reynolds, on December 16, 2014.  She and her husband named their child after Ryan Reynolds’ father, who passed away shortly after his granddaughter was born. Reynolds previously had a tumultuous relationship with his dad, but the two were able to reconcile after encouragement from Lively.  If you’re a Swiftie, you’ve likely heard the little one on Taylor Swift’s track “Gorgeous,” as James is featured in the song’s opening.

Lively’s second daughter, Inez Reynolds, was born on September 30, 2016. She and James made their first public debut in 2016 at a Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony honoring Reynolds. Inez was only a few months old then, while James was nearly two. 

Since then, Lively has opened up about the personalities of her two oldest children, explaining in an interview on “Live With Kelly and Ryan” their differences. “What’s crazy is my two-and-a-half-year-old, she wakes up at night and she’s the baby, basically,” she said. “My little one, oh she’s just so divine. She came out of the womb a little foodie” (per ET).
