Hugh Jackman Reacts to Martha Stewart's Ryan Reynolds Comments

As a bystander to this digital dance between Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, I must say, their social media banter is nothing short of a masterclass in marital wit! It’s like watching a comedy duo who have perfected their act over years – except this act is the everyday lives of two very famous people.


Ryan Reynolds is known for his super sense of humor.

When Martha Stewart labeled Ryan as “serious” and “not very funny in real life,” his Deadpool & Wolverine co-star and real-life friend Hugh Jackman took the chance to add more to Ryan’s already bruised self-esteem.

“Finally,” Hugh responded on X, formerly Twitter. “Someone says it.”

Meanwhile, Ryan offered a different perspective on Martha’s statement. “I have to respectfully disagree with her,” he said on X, “but let me tell you, she caught up surprisingly fast. I once tried it myself, and after a mile, she had almost closed the gap.

The renowned chef shared her thoughts when asked which celebrities were enjoying to spend time with during her appearance as a special guest for Bilt Rewards’ “Rent Free” game show in November. Among those she mentioned was her friend Snoop Dogg, hinting that Ryan might also be included on the list.

She remarked about Ryan, “You’re curious, aren’t you? Well, he’s not as humorous in reality as he seems. In fact, he’s quite serious.

She continued, “I would take Ryan off it, and I would put in somebody else.”

She ranks Taylor Swift highest, then Snoop Dogg, and then mentions that she finds George Clooney particularly enjoyable, stating that he’s a great person to spend time with.

Although she acknowledged that Ryan is a “talented actor with a great sense of humor,” she jokingly warned, “I might face consequences for saying this, but he’s my next-door neighbor.

Actually, Martha has spoken about her experiences living next door to Ryan and his partner, Blake Lively, before.

Martha expressed in a 2014 interview that she really enjoys when Blake Lively visits her home. She added that it’s been a while since Blake last came over, but they had a great time together during Easter, and both her nieces, nephews, and even Ryan enjoyed the gathering too.

However, although Martha might have attempted to humble Ryan, it’s not as if the actor from Free Guy is unfamiliar with a good-natured public teasing.

In the same vein, Blake, who is Ryan’s co-parent of children James (age 9), Inez (8 years old), Betty (5 years old), and their newest addition Olin born in 2023, also never passes up a chance to tease him.

Instead of going with Ryan, Blake decided to bring his mother Tammy Reynolds when hosting a surprise screening of his film “It Ends With Us” in July. He referred to her as the “hottest date.

In July 2022, Lively playfully joked on Instagram, saying, “Dear one, if you priced yourself higher, you could afford me. I’m sorry, but your actual wife.” To which Reynolds responded by suggesting he was changing the category, she quipped back, “@VancityReynolds, my love, go ahead and revolutionize this couch when you sleep on it tonight!

He recently discovered what an ‘earn out’ means… And he would like to extend his apologies to everyone he offended with harsh language over the past day.

His message read: “I’ll be away from the office starting July 22nd and until the middle of infinity and beyond.

His planner explicitly stated, “No divorce humor!”.

Back in March 2018, there was some chatter suggesting that my favorite duo was having trouble spending quality moments together due to their hectic work schedules. Being a die-hard fan who can’t help but stand up for the ones I admire, I couldn’t let this rumor go unchallenged.

In June 2018, Blake shared a promotional poster for the movie “A Simple Favor” featuring her co-star Anna Kendrick and jokingly commented, “Anna Kendrick is a hotter, female version of my husband… so, wouldn’t it be more like friendly competition than infidelity?
