‘That was the biggest thing to me’ Blake had THIS to say about Ryan

As celebrity couples go, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are definitely up there when it comes to major relationship goals.

Having met on the set of Green Lantern, the pair hit it off, tied the knot in 2012 and are now expecting their second child, and it sounds like Blake knows exactly why their marriage will work in an industry known for its shotgun weddings and whirlwind divorces.

Speaking to Marie Claire, the 28-year-old former Gossip Girl actress explained that she knew she wanted to marry Ryan when she realised he was the greatest friend she'd ever had.

"I knew he would always be my best friend for my whole life," she said in the interview which will be featured in the June edition of the magazine. "That was the biggest thing to me."

"I'd never known anything like the friendship that I had with him. I could like him as much as I loved him," she said of the actor who was once engaged to Alanis Morissette before tying the knot and eventually divorcing Scarlett Johansson.

Frankly, we'd marry him for his hilarious tweets alone.
