Lively, 35, revealed pics of her baby bump on Instagram, showing off her pregnancy before the paparazzi could get to it. Lively is expecting another child with husband Ryan Reynolds. The couple has been married since 2012.
“Here are photos of me pregnant in real life so the 11 guys waiting outside my home for a sighting will leave me alone,” Lively wrote. “You freak me and my kids out.”
She wasn’t finished.
“Thanks to everyone else for all the love and respect and for continuing to unfollow accounts and publications who share photos of children,” she added. “You have all the power against them. And thank you to the media who have a ‘No Kids Policy.’ You all make all the difference. Much love! Xxb.”
Blake Lively Shows Off Baby Bump
Lively showed a couple of pictures of herself, as well as some with her older sister, and of course Reynolds. Oh, and one with friend Taylor Swift.
Lively and Reynolds already share three daughters, the oldest being 7-years old.
“She happens to be a really attentive mom. Her kids are her first priority over everything,” a source told People. “You never would think that Blake Lively, this superstar and beautiful woman, would be this regular person who cooks dinner every night and takes care of the family but she is really wonderful with the kids.”
According to a source close to the couple, they are hoping to have a baby boy. “They are hoping for a boy this time around,” the insider said. “But, of course, they just want a healthy baby, no matter the gender.”
