Just a few days ago, Blake Lively and husband Ryan Reynolds made headlines after reports claimed that they were having some marital troubles. And rumors have it that the problem was caused by Lively's ex-boyfriend Leonardo DiCaprio.
Early this month, Blake Lively was allegedly caught by her husband Ryan Reynolds while she was "flirting" with Leonardo DiCaprio at the 18th amfAR Gala in New York. As previously reported, the 39-year-old "Deadpool" star was allegedly seething with anger when "The Revenant" actor tried to get his wife's attention.
"Every time Blake was in Leo's line of vision, he was winking at her and grinning," a Star Magazine source said, as per Celeb Dirty Laundry. "Ryan was furious and told Blake not to even look in Leo's direction, but she couldn't help it!"
Even though Ryan Reynolds felt uber-jealous of the encounter, the "Green Lantern" actor managed to keep his cool.
"[Ryan] would have gone over and knocked Leo out, but he didn't want Leo to know he'd gotten to him," an insider said.
Blake Lively, on the other hand, pretended not to notice Leonardo DiCaprio's rumored innocent flirting but she was actually loving the attention, Hollywood Life noted.
With the latest issues surrounding Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' marriage, some showbiz watchers believed that maybe karma has come back around to them. The reason? The 28-year-old "Gossip Girl" alum reportedly cheated on Leonardo DiCaprio with Reynolds.
In a recent interview, Reynolds revealed how he met his wife on the set of the "Green Lantern" movie. He also emphasized that they didn't start dating until several months later because they were still involved with other people.
"About a year after 'Green Lantern' had come and gone and we were both single we went on a double date," Reynolds explained. "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."
While Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' relationship seemed to depict an ordinary love story, rumors have it that they began "hooking up" after Lively broke up with DiCaprio, The Hollywood Gossip reported.
Do you think Blake Lively ditched Leonardo DiCaprio for Ryan Reynolds? Well, payback might be a b-ch and DiCaprio's "flirting" encounter might just be his way to give Reynolds a taste of his own medicine.
