A Look Back at Their Previous Red Carpet Moments Together
Sunday wasn’t the first time Blunt and Lively have attended a premiere together. Back in 2018, Lively and Reynolds were on the red carpet as Blunt and husband John Krasinski debuted their joint horror flick A Quiet Place in New York City.
Blunt also attended Lively’s baby shower ahead of the birth of the latter’s second child, now-8-year-old daughter Inez. The three-hour celebration was held at the Bedford Post Inn in upstate New York.
Lively and Reynolds later hosted a reception and screening of Blunt’s Mary Poppins Returns in
Stanley Tucci’s Heartfelt Moment
Stanley Tucci is “very good” with the idea of death. The 64-year-old actor – who is married to Felicity Blunt and has Matteo, nine, and six-year-old Emilia with her but also has twins Isabel and Nicolo, 24, as well as Camilla, 21, with his late first wife Kate – noted that his heritage has allowed him to be comfortable with mortality and wants to be honest with his children about it.
“You know, we Italians are actually very good with death because the families there were so large, there was always someone to mourn,” he told The Sunday Telegraph.
“It does come up a lot in our household, because my first wife passed away, and so the younger ones would look at old photos of her and get confused. But, you know, we’re all going to die. None of us is going to go on forever. How else can we face up to that but with the truth?”
The ‘Devil Wears Prada’ star – whose first wife passed away as a result of breast cancer in 2009 at the age of 47 – underwent intense treatment for an oral form of the disease in 2017 but admitted that he was left with no choice but to return to work as soon as possible because he needed to earn money even though he was still working on his recuperation.
“I realised I didn’t have the energy that I previously had. I’d undergone all these treatments, and getting my strength back,” he said.
“It took a long time, but I felt I had to get back to work because I had to make money. So it was hard.”
Celebrity Unfollows and Drama
If you’re in the mood to kickstart your week by reading into things, buckle up because TMZ reports that Travis Kelce has unfollowed Ryan Reynolds on Instagram. The move comes amid rumors that Taylor Swift was less than thrilled to be dragged into Blake Lively’s lawsuit against Justin Baldoni—though recent reports claim they have worked things out, so…tbd on why Travis would unfollow Ryan now of all times.
Instagram Per TMZ, it’s “not clear” when Travis unfollowed Ryan, who is still following him. Meanwhile, Blake also doesn’t follow Travis, but still follows Taylor, while Taylor doesn’t follow literally anyone (a great way to avoid all this drama!).
Four days ago (April 24), People published a story saying Taylor was “really hurt” after being implicated in Blake’s legal battle, and that “Blake knew she and Taylor would come back from this at some point and that their friendship wasn’t done for good. Taylor was really hurt by this situation, so she’s relieved they were able to recover from this and put it all behind them because it wasn’t something she took lightly.”
This marks a big change from back in February, when a source told The Daily Mail that “Taylor is not communicating with Blake. She was invited to SNL50, but with Blake there – and Kim Kardashian – it was the last place on earth she would be seen. Taylor is taking stock of which of her friends are good for her and who name drops her for personal gain after Blake-gate. She has a new album in the works and is shocked by how much drama she was pulled into. She won’t let external factors hurt her career.”
