Blake Lively was spotted taking a leisurely stroll in New York City weekend with her eldest daughter, James

Blake Lively, a proud mother of four, was spotted taking a leisurely stroll in New York City on Mother’s Day weekend with her eldest daughter, 8-year-old James. The 35-year-old actress was photographed holding hands with her little girl as they walked down a sunlit sidewalk.

For the outing, Blake sported a chic look, donning a salmon sweater paired with acid wash jeans. She brought along a purple jacket in case the weather turned chilly and swept her blonde hair into a bun, complemented by a navy baseball cap. Adding a touch of glamour, she accessorized with several necklaces.

This outing followed Blake’s first public appearance with her youngest daughter, one-year-old Betty, the day before. Joining them was her husband, the dashing Ryan Reynolds, who is the father of all three children, and their middle daughter, four-year-old Inez.

Ryan Reynolds recently shared a heartwarming selfie of himself and Blake during a visit to Yankee Stadium. In the caption, he recounted Blake taking him to his first home run derby, where the Yankees triumphed 10 to nothing. He humorously suggested that he might be a good luck charm and play left field for the rest of his life.

Blake and Ryan, who tied the knot in 2012, have been a prominent celebrity couple. However, they faced public scrutiny last year for their wedding venue choice, a former plantation in South Carolina, prompting a public apology.

Earlier this year, Blake opened up on Instagram about feeling ‘insecure’ regarding her body after giving birth to Betty in October 2019. She candidly shared her struggles during the publicity rounds for her film “The Rhythm Section,” describing the ‘alienating and confusing’ experience of not fitting into designer samples at that time.
