"Here are photos of me pregnant in real life so the 11 guys waiting outside my home for a 🦄 sighting will leave me alone. You freak me and my kids out," she wrote alongside a few photos at the time.
On Super Bowl Sunday, Lively posted a photo celebrating the Puppy Bowl that led many of her followers to believe that she'd already given birth.
Lively and Reynolds have three other children together, daughters James, Inez, and Betty. Reynolds has spoken about being a father to girls in the past.
"I know girls, so I'm kind of hoping that," he said in late 2022, adding that at the time, he and Lively "didn't know" the sex of their fourth child and that the couple "never find out 'til [they're born]." Speaking of growing up with his brothers, he noted that it's quite a bit different than being in a house full of girls, saying, "I love my well-being and my home" and that he and his siblings "were just arsonists and firemen."
