Blake Lively put her growing bump on full display during a very star-studded beach day with her husband Ryan Reynolds and singer Taylor Swift on Sunday.
The 28-year-old, who is pregnant with her second child, splashed in the waves alongside Taylor, the pop star’s new beau Tom Hiddleston, Gigi Hadid, Karlie Kloss, Cara Delevingne, and Orange Is The New Black stars Uzo Aduba and Ruby Rose.
The expectant actress wore a tiny burgundy string bikini that clung to her curves and tied at her back and hips as she waded in the surf at Westerly, Rhode Island.

Hiking up an incline, the actress held hands with her husband Ryan Reynolds as they made their way up alongside the rocky ledge behind Taylor.
Ryan sported sunglasses and a pair of striped swimming trunks that showed off his impressive leg tattoos.
His real-life leading lady wore her blonde hair slicked back with the water and shielded her eyes from the sun with a pair of shades.
The former Gossip Girl star was clearly feeling patriotic as she had her nails red and appeared to have smudged her eye make-up in the surf.

She told US TV show Entertainment Tonight: ‘I had an amazing trainer. I was fortunate to have Don Saladino help me out and he just kicked my butt in the best way, in the most healthy way…
‘Being in waves like that, swimming like that, doing such long takes like that all the time – I became so much stronger and more fit by the end of production.
‘I was working out 13 hours a day because shooting was working out. It was neat to be able to do that, and it was neat to have that challenge after having a 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢, because you think your body is so different – you think no matter what, it’s never [going to be] totally be the same.’

Hand in hand: The couple stayed close as they journeyed beside the rocky incline
In a separate interview with E!, the star said of her tough regime: ‘It was eight months after having a 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 so my body was already completely different than what it normally was.
‘Not just aesthetically but also your muscles are different, your body, everything is just shifted and changed.’
‘I wouldn’t have gotten in that kind of shape. It was like training for a marathon, but a marathon is one day. This was six weeks straight, six-day weeks, no lunch breaks, thirteen-hour days, four-foot waves at all times.

My #pinkobsession is exposed now. Ok your turn. I won’t tell! #AlsoTurnsOutJohnLegendIsntCoveringBadBlood Time to start a petition.’
After her sense of humour was misunderstood, she later took to Instagram to gush about Taylor: ‘Umm whoever thought I was throwin’ shade clearly doesn’t know I have a “Taylor Swift Please Be My Wife Voo Doo Doll”. #obsessed.
‘Look how rad she is here making my niece Heather feel like a rock star. Love my Canadian family almost as much as I love Taylor Lively. I mean Swift. Ok, FIIINE we can hyphenate our last names. Xo Blake Swift-Lively 4eva.’
