Blake Lively’s son Olin’s first birthday was one to remember!
The “Gossip Girl” alum hilariously revealed she baked her son a boob-themed cake to celebrate the milestone during a recent appearance on BBC Radio 2’s “Zoe Ball and Friends.”
“My birthday cakes always have a little bit of a sense of humor, for my baby I just did a giant set of t-ts,” Lively told Ball, who burst into laughter.
“Which I feel like will haunt him for life,” she jokingly added.
The “It Ends With Us” actress, 36, explained that her son is too young to voice what he wanted so she took a little creative leeway.
“But, what do they want at one? He can’t declare what he wants. So, boobs!”
“I’ll show you a picture after, they’re pretty amazing,” she said, before clarifying, “Of the cake, not of mine … Also amazing though.”
Lively is an avid baker and occasionally shares her confections on her social media pages. Over the past couple of years, she’s whipped up a lifelike watermelon cake, a sleeping unicorn and a few “birthday pies” — her husband, Ryan Reynold’s treat of choice.
She even appeared on the “Great British Baking Show” last year and once had her own cooking and lifestyle blog called Preserve.
Page Six confirmed in February 2023 that Lively and Reynolds, who wed in 2012, had welcomed their fourth child.
However, the couple kept their little one’s sex and name a secret for over a year. Reynolds announced his son’s unusual Nordic moniker while giving a sentimental speech at the “Deadpool & Wolverine” premiere last month.
“I want to start by saying thank you to my wife, Blake, who is here,” he said onstage. “I want to thank my kids, James, Inez, Betty, Olin, who are here. I hope that, if I’m lucky, this moment will be the most traumatic thing — that is, the contents of this movie — that happens in your wondrous life.”
Reynolds, 47, and Lively also share daughters James, 9, Inez, 7, and Betty, 4.
A week later, Reynolds revealed Olin was a boy while talking to John Bell, a Wrexham AFC fan, who was mourning the loss of his own son.
“I want to share with you that I too have a son and that if … boy, John, if I love him one-tenth as much as you love Jake, I feel like I’ve done a pretty damn good job,” Reynolds said in a video shared to Instagram.
Although the A-list couple keep their kids out of the public eye, Olin and Inez had small roles in the new Marvel movie.
While the 7-year-old was credited as Kid Pool, Olin was named Baby Pool.
Shawn Levy, the film’s director and Olin’s “proud godfather,” later called the baby’s voice cameo his “favorite.”
Blake Lively’s passion for baking was on full display during her son Olin’s first birthday celebration. The actress revealed on BBC Radio 2’s “Zoe Ball and Friends” that she went the extra mile and baked a cleverly themed cake for the occasion. Instead of a traditional cake, Lively delightedly shared that she made a cake in the shape of a giant set of “t-ts”, much to the amusement of the radio host and listeners. Lively joked that her son may be haunted by this memory for years to come, but it was all in good fun.
As a devoted baker, Lively has showcased her culinary skills on social media, creating impressive treats like lifelike watermelon cakes and whimsical sleeping unicorn creations. Her knack for baking even landed her a guest spot on the “Great British Baking Show” and a popular lifestyle blog called Preserve in the past.
Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, is known for his love of birthday pies, which she has also lovingly crafted in the past.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2012, welcomed their fourth child earlier this year, keeping details about their newborn under wraps for some time. Reynolds finally revealed their son’s unique Nordic name at a special event, expressing his love and gratitude for his family. The Reynolds-Lively brood now consists of daughters James, Inez, Betty, and the newest addition, Olin.
Reynolds also took to social media to share a heartfelt moment with a fan who was mourning the loss of his own son, opening up about his own experiences as a father.
The couple is known for their privacy when it comes to their children, but fans were pleasantly surprised to discover that Olin and Inez had small roles in a recent Marvel movie.
The proud parents have managed to balance their thriving careers with their family life, making sure to keep their children grounded despite their Hollywood status.
