The Real Story Behind the Rumors That Ryan Reynolds Was Unfaithful to His Ex-Wife Scarlett Johansson With Blake Lively.

He was allegedly ‘controlling’ in their relationship.

While Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds currently embroiled in legal battles with Justin Baldoni, fans are revisiting the Deadpool actor’s short-lived marriage with Scarlett Johannson. Reynolds and Johannson were briefly married for two years before he moved on to the Gossip Girl star.

The two actors met in 2007 after Reynolds called off his engagement with rock legend Alanis Morisette. They got engaged in 2008 and married the same year. In 2010, the two announced their separation in a statement to People. “After long and careful consideration on both our parts, we’ve decided to end our marriage,” they said in a joint statement. “We entered our relationship with love and it’s with love and kindness we leave it. While privacy isn’t expected, it’s certainly appreciated.”

Why did Ryan Reynolds & Scarlett Johansson break up?

Shortly after their breakup, rumors swirled about how “controlling” Ryan Reynolds was during the relationship.  “[Ryan] can be an overbearing control freak,” a source told DailyMail in December 2010. “He’s more traditional and she’s more independent.”

More details of their intense dynamics emerged. “He said it sounded like she was yelling every time she talked to him. When Scarlett visited Ryan when he was filming The Proposal, she was screaming at him in his trailer – going nuts,” a source recalled to the gossip site.

The Black Widow star reflected on her short-lived marriage. “I’m a big believer that when something feels right, you should do it,” Johansson says of her 2008 wedding to Cosmopolitan. I’m a big believer in instinct. Getting married was the right thing to do because it was natural. It grew out of a romance and love and a desire to have a future with somebody and I was very fortunate that I married somebody who turned out to be the person I thought he would be.”

The actress cited that busy schedules got the worst of them. “Relationships are complicated,” she said, and being married is a living, breathing process. I think I was not fully aware of the peaks and valleys. I wasn’t prepared to hunker down and do the work. Both of us were extremely busy. We spent so much time apart. It’s very difficult. It’s bad.”

Did Ryan Reynolds cheat on Scarlett Johansson with Blake Lively?

There’s no proof that Ryan Reynolds cheated on Scarlett Johansson. The Green Lantern actors started dating after they split from their partners. Blake Lively broke up with Gossip Girl co-star Penn Badgley in 2010.

A waitress told DailyMail that the co-stars were getting cozy on a date night in New York shortly after Johansson’s split. “It was just the two of the, and they were laughing and flirting,” the waitress said. “It looked like a date. If you didn’t know who they were, you would definitely assume they were a couple.”

“We were buddies for a long time, which I think is the best way to have a relationship, to start as friends,” Reynolds told Jess Cagle on SiriusXM’s Entertainment Weekly. “About a year after Green Lantern had come and gone and we were both single, we went on a double date — she was on a date with another guy, and I was on a date with another girl — and it was like the most awkward date for the respective parties because we were just like fireworks coming across,” Reynolds said.

Are Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds on good terms?

It seems like it! When she talked to Gwyneth Paltrow about her marriages in 2024, she exclaimed that Reynolds was a “good guy.” Scarlett Johansson is currently married to Saturday Night Live‘s Weekend Update host Colin Jost. When Ryan Reynolds came on SNL in 2019 as a surprise guest on Weekend Update, he called Jost his “best friend.”

Johansson reflected about her past relationships without naming Reynolds in an interview with Cosmopolitan. “The logistics of being with another actor are challenging. There has to be a real understanding of how you share your time, especially when two people’s careers are going at the same rate. Or even if one person is more successful than the other, that also proves challenging. There may be a competitive thing.

“Departing a relationship and still maintaining the idea that this is still the same person I married is a great luxury that I experienced,” Reynolds explained to Details. “Thankfully, I was in a relationship where two people chose to remain on the high road in every regard.”
