Blake Lively & Ryan Reynolds - Stronger Than Ever!

After a few bumps in the road, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ marriage is back on track. Ok! Shares a look inside their private world

They looked like newlyweds. On Oct. 29, Blake Lively and her husband of seven years, Ryan Reynolds, snuck out for a romantic brunch in New York City. “They seemed so happy and into each other,” says a witness, adding that the couple couldn’t stop smiling and laughing. “They held hands throughout the meal and were even stealing bites of food off each other’s plates! It was very cute.”

The sweet outing was a far cry from earlier this year, when the stars’ marriage experienced some serious hiccups, according to an insider. “Things got pretty rough there for a while. They were bickering constantly, and there was a point when friends worried they could be on the brink of divorce,” the insider tells OK!, adding that Blake and Ryan refused to give up on each other. “It wasn’t easy, but they both made the decision to work on their relationship. And after careful introspection and reflection, they were able to make things right again.” Now “everyone is saying they’ve never seen Blake and Ryan in this state of bliss,” the insider says of the parents of three, James, 4, Inez, 3, and an almost 3-month-old baby girl. “Their marriage is truly stronger than it’s ever been.”
