Ryan Reynolds shares one-off 'name' of his and Blake Lively's newborn with fans

Hollywood A-lister Ryan Reynolds has spoken of becoming a dad again with wife Blake Lively during a UK appearance.

The Deadpool star, 46, and Blake recently welcomed their fourth child and he told of the rather unusual moniker on stage at London's O2 Arena on Saturday (March 4).

Ryan shared the stage with comedian Rob Delaney for Just For Laughs London - and the pair certainly had the watching crowd entertained. The event was described as "a fun-packed conversation filled with laughter, anecdotes, and insight into the Hollywood superstar", writes The Mirror.

The Hollywood actor opened up about his life with the audience and when the subject of his family life came up, Ryan joked about the name they had 'picked out' for their fourth child - living up to his funnyman reputation.

He told the audience: “We actually called our daughter Cocaine Bear. We picked the name out before the film was released so we’re involved in a litigation battle now."

An audience member who attended the ticketed event also confirmed to The Mirror that Ryan mainly talked about his career but did give fans a glimpse into his family life.

They explained: “Ryan and Rob mainly discussed his career and projects but he touched on fatherhood and, despite using his trademark humour to discuss his children, it was clear he dotes on his offspring - even though he’s considering a vasectomy!”

Ryan and Blake appeared to confirm that they welcomed their first child ahead of the 2023 SuperBowl when the Gossip Girl star shared a photo to social media without her baby bump.

Standing alongside her husband Ryan and his mum Tammy she captioned the snap: "Puppy Bowl Sunday 2023 been busy."

Ryan and Blake are already parents to James, 8, Inez, 6, and Betty, 3. The couple are yet to reveal the name of the baby, birth date or a picture of their newborn just yet.

Back in September they announced they were adding to their brood when the Gossip Girl star surprised fans by debuting her blossoming bump on a red carpet in a gold Maison Valentino dress.

And shortly after, she took to social media to share a various snaps of her pregnancy progress on Instagram.

Recently, Ryan has taken a break from his acting career but has been regularly spotted taking in Wrexham AFC games - the non-league football club he owns with pal Rob McElhenney.
