In 2010, Ryan Reynolds was joyfully declared the recipient of the renowned ‘Sеxiest Man Alive’ accolade by People magazine. Surprisingly, this honor coincided with his ex-wife, Scarlett Johansson, receiving the equally impressive ‘Babe of the Year’ title from GQ magazine. Reynolds showcased his charm and charisma in a striking cover shoot for People, where he playfully mentioned that his accomplishment might not have seemed quite as significant to Johansson.
In March 2010, there were whispers about problems in the romantic bond between Reynolds and Johansson. However, both celebrities promptly dismissed these rumors and emphasized the need for the media to refrain from prying into their personal affairs. Surprisingly, just a few months later, Reynolds was honored with the title of “Sєxiest Man” in November 2010. Shortly after, in December, the couple officially declared their separation. Reynolds, known for his role in “The Adam Project,” communicated his divorce announcement through an official statement relayed by the NY Post.
“Following much contemplation and thoughtful reflection, we have reached the difficult decision to dissolve our marriage. Our journey as a couple initially began with a deep-rooted affection, and it is with that same affection and genuine empathy that we choose to part ways. Although we do not demand complete seclusion, we do humbly request the respect for our privacy throughout this process.”
The precise cause behind their separation remains a mystery, but the talented actress from “Marriage Story” has given subtle indications that their careers played a role in the unsuccessful relationship. Since then, Johansson has moved on and tied the knot two more times, currently finding happiness in her marriage with Colin Jost, the host of “SNL Weekend Update.” On the other hand, Reynolds has found love and contentment in his relationship with Blake Lively, and the couple frequently engage with their fans on social media.
