A Little Gossip Girl? Or A Mini-Green Lantern? Blake Lively & Ryan Reynolds Expecting Their First Child

Blake Lively, via her website Preserve, announced she and Ryan Reynolds are expecting their first child.

The 27-year-old Gossip Girl star posted an image of herself caressing a well-developed baby bump as part of a larger post in which she wrote about “that special moment at the creation of family,” giving props to “all the expecting mothers out there.”

The A-list couple’s romance began on the set of 2011’s The Green Lantern, leading to their Sept. 2012 wedding in South Carolina.

Lively, perhaps, foreshadowed her pending maternity in a recent Marie Claire interview, saying she’s “gotta get started” building a family with her hunky hubby.

"If I could spit out a litter of kids, I would,” the gorgeous Lively told the publication, on the heels of another interview a month earlier with Vogue, in which she predicted the 37-year-old Waiting... star was “going to be a great father and leader and patriarch.

"He's so meant to be all of those things … the fact that he lived so much before we got together, he's the exact realized person that he should be. And so I get to share my life with the person he's become, and we get to grow from there."

Congrats to the new parents to-be!
