The Truth About Taylor Swift And Blake Lively's Friendship

Sure, they may be one of the most famous couples around (who also have a hilarious track record of teasing one another), but Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds keep certain aspects of their lives out of the glaring spotlight of Hollywood. More specifically, they shield their kids from unwanted media attention. While the tots have made rare public appearances (including at Reynolds' 2016 Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony), for the most part, their lives are private.

Lively didn't even reveal her third pregnancy until she accompanied her husband to the Pokémon Detective Pikachu premiere in May 2019 and let her very prominent baby bump speak for itself. News of the baby's arrival broke in October 2019, but Us Weekly reported the child was actually born sometime that summer. Although they never shared the name of their third daughter publicly, some Swifties think it could be "Betty" — and here's why.

In Taylor Swift's song "Betty" on Folklore, she mentions three names: Betty, Inez, and James. As Just Jared pointed out, Inez and James are the names of two of the Lively-Reynolds kids, sparking speculation that Betty could be the third. Since they let their daughter appear on one of Swift's previous albums, it doesn't seem like a huge stretch. And having your baby name revealed by the award-winning singer is wayyy more exciting than a typical PR statement.

But how do these celebrities know each other in the first place?
