Blake Lively Called Ryan Reynolds ‘Delicious’ on Instagram — Then Went in on His Arms Set to Justin Bieber’s ‘Yummy’

Fifteen years in, and Blake Lively is still posting thirst traps about her husband. On Wednesday, the actress shared an Instagram Stories sequence that started innocuously enough — a sunny outdoor selfie with Ryan Reynolds, who was holding a plate of cookies and raspberries in a white tank top — and then escalated.

“delicious @vancityreynolds,” she wrote over the photo. What followed, per Page Six, were close-up shots of Reynolds’ arms, soundtracked by Justin Bieber’s “Yummy.” The internet got the message.

Reynolds, 49, did not appear to respond publicly, which tracks. The couple, who married in 2012 and have four children together, built much of their early public persona on mutual Instagram trolling — each going out of their way to post unflattering photos of the other. The “delicious” era appears to represent a different approach, per Just Jared.

The Post-Lawsuit Chapter

The timing is notable. Lively’s highly publicized legal dispute with her It Ends With Us director Justin Baldoni, filed in December 2024, was officially resolved on May 4. The settlement terms were not disclosed. The cookies-and-biceps post landed roughly three weeks later — part of what looks, from the outside, like a deliberate return to normal, per Us Magazine.
