Notably, Reynolds and Johansson had got married in September 2008 after starting dating each other in 2007. In December 2010, the couple split just two years of marriage.

“After long and careful consideration on both our parts, we’ve decided to end our marriage. We entered our relationship with love and it’s with love and kindness we leave it. While privacy isn’t expected, it’s certainly appreciated,” the statement from Reynolds and Johansson read after their split.

After their estrangement, Reynolds started dating Blake Lively while Johansson moved on with Sean Penn. Reynolds went on to marry Lively in 2012 and they have four children together. Reynolds and Lively have three daughters namely James, Inez and Betty. The third child’s name is not known.
