As parents to four kids, Reynolds said during a July appearance on Live with Kelly and Mark that he and Lively spend their date nights mostly discussing their children.
“We went on a date the other night and our oldest was going to 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁 us,” Reynolds recalled during that appearance. “Just for going on a date; just for tending to the relationship. And we did, and what’s crazy is, the whole time we’re there, we just talked about [our kids], when you think you’re going to be talking about [something else].”
Lively and Reynolds were most recently seen out and about in New York City on Sept. 5; to celebrate Lively’s 37th birthday in August, they spent a weekend in Rhode Island with friends.
