If
Chrissy Teigen is the queen of Twitter and
Kylie Jenner is the master of Instagram, then
Ryan Reynolds and
Blake Lively are the reigning couple of all social media.
They have racked up countless times where they represented the
ultimate couple goals, never letting any sentimental statement or romantic gesture be published without some humour to go with it. Even apart they get plenty of admiration from their followers on Instagram and Twitter, from Reynolds' frequent Deadpool-related joke messages to Lively's honesty about her body image.

Recently, Lively received a range of responses from fans after she shared a photo of herself with her personal trainer, happy to have finally lost the weight she gained from her pregnancy in 2016. After spending the last 14 months working off the 61 pounds she gained, she amassed over 2 million likes with a shot of her with trainer Don Saladino. In the Instagram caption she wrote:
"Turns out you can’t lose the 61 lbs you gained during pregnancy by just scrolling through instragram and wondering why you don’t look like all the bikini models. Thanks @donsaladino for kickin my A double S into shape. 10 months to gain, 14 months to lose. Feeling very proud"
Some commenters took issue with the fact that most mothers don't have the resources available to the rich and famous. "I don't mean to be negative, but this isn't the reality for most moms/women out there," one user wrote. "Not everyone can afford personal trainers who can do that ASAP". However, most of the response was overwhelmingly positive, with many appreciating her honesty when it comes to struggling to lose the weight.

Reynolds, on the other hand, ends up using his Instagram to troll other people for the most part. While he has sent many hilarious birthday messages in the full costume as his superhero alter-ego Deadpool, he also took aim at fellow superhero actor
Henry Cavill recently in the trailer for his superhero sequel, Deadpool 2.
Referencing the fact that Warner Brothers spent $25 million dollars to digitally remove Cavill's mustache that another studio refused to let him shave (he was filming a Mission: Impossible sequel at the time), he brought it up in the recent trailer. As Josh Brolin's cable hits the screen, rather than his CGI metal arm, we only see the green screen sleeve before the effects are added.
"Dale! Why are the visual effects not done?" Reynolds' voiceover asks. "It's a metal arm! It's not like we're trying to remove a mustache".
Now the couple have come together once again for some light-hearted trolling. For his Valentine's Day message to his wife, Reynolds posted an image of his present to his wife for the special day: a Valentine's cake.

In the caption, he wrote: "I bake this cake for my wife. The icing is glue, 'cause I'm not a scientist". The photo has already struck a chord with his followers, with over 1.5 million likes already.
For all couples out there, they can always look to Hollywood's power couple to see how it's done.
