Amid all the celebrity break-ups that went down this year, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds were the couple that maintained our faith in love.
Let's be honest, it was looking pretty bleak for a while there. First of all in January, we had Lena Dunham and Jack Antonoff, then came Michael Sheen and Sarah Silverman in February, followed by Hollywood sweethearts Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux, Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan and WWE power couple John Cena and Nikki Bella. By the time, Liam Payne and Cheryl announced their separation in July, we were losing all hope. What was the point?
Then, we remembered Blake and Ryan. Having married back in 2012 after a year of dating, the pair had welcomed two beautiful children and were going strong, trolling one another on social media every chance they got. Thank God for true love, eh?
However, recently Ryan revealed the reason that the former Gossip Girl actress would probably eventually divorce him - and, in typical Ryan-style, it was pretty funny.
Speaking at an appearance at San Diego Comic-Con 2018, the Green Lantern star stated that his wife was currently away from home shooting a movie, leaving him home alone with their kids, one-year-old Inez and three-year-old James.
But, while you'd think that his attention would be on them, you'd be wrong. The 41-year-old went on to say that, rather than looking after the kids, he was actually embarking on "a weird movie tour", saying: "Do you ever do that thing where you watch, like, every Quentin Tarantino movie? I've been kind of doing that."
Admitting that this would likely displease Blake, he went on to joke: "My wife's been shooting a film overseas so I've been having a ton of time to pretend like I'm watching the kids. She's probably filing divorce papers as we speak."
Luckily for all of us, the actor - who was at Comic-Con to discuss the new Deadpool film - was most definitely joking, and we can all breathe a relieved sigh that Hollywood's cutest couple are going to be together for quite some time yet. Phew.
Blake has recently been away filming the thriller The Rhythm Section in Spain and Ireland, with the new movie set for release in February 2019. However, that hasn't stopped her from roasting her husband on social media.
Last month, she took to Instagram to upload posters for her upcoming movie, A Simple Favor, set to come out later this year. The movie co-stars Anna Kendrick and follows a small-town blogger who tries to solve the disappearance of her mysterious and rich best friend.
In true Lively fashion, the Age of Adaline star took the chance to burn her husband in her caption, writing: "@annakendrick47 is the hotter, female(r) version my husband... so, would it reaaaally count as cheating??" Anna herself even got involved, writing: "So glad we're finally taking this public. I let Ryan have Deadpool, he can give me this."
Not long after, the actor came up with the reply that everyone was ready for. He didn't disappoint - but did admit defeat - posting: "The most ambitious crossover event in history. I'll miss you both. Tell my story."
Nawww! Aren't they the best couple in Hollywood? I'll fight anyone who says otherwise.
