How Many Kids Do Blake & Ryan Hope To Have?

by Kristie Rohwedder

Well it's been quite a day for news about obscenely beautiful people and their unborn progeny, hasn't it? According to Us Weekly, actors Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are expecting their second child. Thursday, Us Weekly reported that Lively's baby bump was visible when she was wearing “a fitted wetsuit” while filming upcoming flick The Shallows. Bustle has reached out to Lively and Reynolds' reps for comment, but has not yet heard back.

If the gorgeous husband and wife duo is indeed with child, this would fit right in with their plan: Lively and Reynolds, who welcomed daughter James in December 2014, hope to have a bunch of kids together. In 2012, Lively told Allure that she's "always wanted a big family." When asked how many children she hopes to have, she replied, “Oh, I'd love 30 if I could.” And in 2013, her husband echoed this sentiment when he said the following in an interview with Details (via Us Weekly):

We'd love to have a big family. We both come from big families — my parents did four, Blake's did five. A lot of people say it's crazy, but we'll only know when we're there, you know? We'll walk through that fire pretty happily, I think.

Fast-forward to 2014: When Marie Claire asked Lively if a brood of 30 little ones is still in the cards for the Lively-Reynolds family, the Gossip Girl actress replied, "I gotta get started. If I could spit out a litter of kids, I would."

Congrats to Lively, Reynolds, James, and their reportedly growing litter!
