Taylor Swift Gives Heartwarming Shoutout to Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ Kids at Madrid Show
In a heartwarming moment captured by a fan at her recent show in Madrid, Taylor Swift took a sweet moment to name-drop Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ daughters during her performance of the hit track “Betty.” The move was met with thunderous applause and excited screams from the crowd.
Earlier in the night, Lively was spotted with three children, believed to be her eldest daughters James, Inez, and Betty, in the VIP area of the crowd. Swift has previously name-dropped James and Betty in her songs “Betty” from her 2020 album Folklore and “Gorgeous” from her 2017 album reputation. The singer’s friendship with Lively and Reynolds spans nearly a decade and has been filled with numerous adorable moments.
During her Folklore set, Swift made sure to mention each of Lively and Reynolds’ daughters by name, with a wide smile on her face. “I have to say that on Folklore some of my favorite characters are named James, Inez, and Betty,” she said to her audience. The shoutout was a special nod to Lively and her kids being in attendance at the show, with some fans calling Swift the “best auntie.”
The moment was captured on video and has since gone viral on social media. Fans are praising Swift for her thoughtfulness and her strong bond with her friends. “Imagine thinking your ‘Auntie’ has a hobby, then going to her stadium shows and getting a shoutout!!” one fan wrote under the video.
Swift’s friendship with Lively and Reynolds dates back to a 2015 L’Oreal campaign shoot. The couple welcomed their fourth child in February 2023 but have yet to reveal the child’s name or sex. In a recent interview, Reynolds joked that he and his wife are waiting for Taylor to name their fourth baby, saying, “We always wait for Taylor to tell us what the child’s name will be. We’re still waiting. So, Taylor, let’s maybe start, you know.”
The moment is a testament to Swift’s kind heart and her ability to bring joy to those around her. Her friendship with Lively and Reynolds is a beautiful example of the power of strong bonds and the lasting impact they can have on our lives.
