Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are without question one of the most powerful couples in Hollywood, but could be set to reach stratospheric levels soon. According to Luxury Launches,” As their savvy investments come home to roost, it may not be too long before they join the likes of Jay Z and Beyoncé, François Pinault and Salma Hayek, and Miranda Kerr and Evan Spiegel.”

Only recently, the news broke that he was selling his telecoms firm Mint Mobile (Ryan owns a stake in this) to T-Mobile, and this is reportedly going to earn him over $300m.

Ryan’s wealth has amassed over recent years not only due to his acting roles but also his entrepreneurship. He reportedly earned $67 million pre-tax for the acquisition of the Aviation American gin brand which Diageo LLC is said to have purchased for $610 million. 

Now as to the important question as to who is wealthier between Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively? Ryan is reportedly worth five times as much as his wife and she is said to have a net worth of $30 million.

Blake Lively has amassed her fortune thanks to her time on the show, Gossip Girl, where according to celebritynetworth.com, “she was earning a peak rate of $60,000 per episode. Blake is also a brand ambassador for the likes of Chanel and L’Oreal.

Aside from modelling and acting, teetotal Blake Lively also launched non-alcoholic beverage company Betty Buzz. On its website Blake said: “I don’t drink. I know that’s odd coming from the wife of an infamous gin slinger.” She then goes on to say that “We spent over three years crafting Betty Buzz and are so excited for people to finally taste it.”

Despite Ryan and Blake’s incredible wealth, they seem a very down to earth couple when it comes to Hollywood standards. They were only too happy to pose for photographs with their children (including their newborn) at the Wrexham AFC stadium over the weekend. 

Ryan’s co-partner Rob McElhenney was also present at the game which saw Wrexham beat York City 3-0 in the Vanarama National League. 

When it comes to Ryan and Blake’s family life, the couple live with their four children in a house which is reportedly worth £4 million and is in the town of Bedford, New York state, which is around an hour’s drive from Manhattan. They are said to be friends with British actress Emily Blunt and her husband John Krasinksi as well as Taylor Swift.
