 and Blake Lively

– full of successes and controversies. Reynolds scored a billion-dollar blockbuster with Deadpool & Wolverine,

while Lively earned back her production budget for It Ends With Us

The couple has made a promise to put their family first. A source recently told Life & Style Magazine

” after what the source described as a “crazy year.

” The insider added that Reynolds and Lively are fully “committed

” to this plan and have cleared their schedules for the foreseeable future.
