Hollywood actor Ryan Reynolds took a playful jab at the legal drama between his wife Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni during NBC’s SNL50: The Anniversary Special.

The joke emerged during a Q&A segment featuring former Saturday Night Live stars Amy Poehler and Tina Fey, where the celebrity audience posed questions. When it was Reynolds’ turn, Poehler and Fey initiated the conversation by asking how he was doing.

“Great… Why, what have you heard?” Reynolds responded nervously while glancing around. Lively, seated beside him, appeared visibly surprised by the subtle reference, prompting cameras to shift to Poehler and Fey, who reassured everyone they hadn’t heard anything.

Reynolds redirected the discussion, inquiring whether the material used for the coneheads in the classic SNL sketch was edible.
