Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds Are Now Married by the Power Vested in Police Paperwork

A Bedford police officer’s assumption set TMZ’s heart momentarily aflutter with the possibility that Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds had been married in secret somewhere in upstate New York, probably by a druid in a ceremony deep in the Catskills. Reynolds filed a complaint last Sunday that a photographer was creeping around the home he and Lively retreat to for their super-secret sexcations. The officer responsible for filling out the necessary paperwork listed Lively as Reynolds’ “wife,” though this was of course a clerical mistake born out of the laziness. The effort required to write “illicit, sin-living paramour” is just waaaay too onerous. The couple isn’t married, but this is the kind of snafu that can come from making wild, baseless assumptions, such as that Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are actually noted aliens Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise wearing new human suits in order to appear young and hide the fact that they’re still a couple.
