Get ready for a date night! The 2022 Met Gala wasn’t just about making a fashion statement — it was an excuse for some of Hollywood’s biggest couples to enjoy a night on the town.
Blake Lively Ryan Reynolds didn’t let their duties as two of the co-chairs at the Monday, May 2, event take away from their couple style. The Gossip GirlAlum, 34, and The Deadpool star, 45, embraced the “In America: An Anthology of Fashion,” which called for upscale, black-tie fashions.
The pair — who share daughters James, 7, Inez, 5, and Betty, 2 — sizzled as they posed side by side on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

It gave off regal vibes. The look was completed with custom Lorraine Schwartz jewels including a tiara, drop earrings, and Christian Louboutin heels.
“This year was especially nerve-wracking,” Lively told VogueRed carpet: She revealed that her attire paid homage New York City’s monuments, including The Statue of Liberty, “I always try to honor the theme. [So]Looking at the city I love [and] not just the fashion.” (Her change from the gold gown to a teal color was a nod to the Statue of Liberty, which was initially a bronze color before evolving to its current green hue.)
The nod to the Gilded Age in America — which took place in the 19th century and is known for a steep rise in wealth and development — was seen with multiple attendees’ looks.

The Games of Thrones alum, 26, and the musician, 32, who share 21-month-old daughter Willa, appeared to be in good spirits as they enjoyed their parents’ night out ahead of their second child’s arrival. (Us confirmed in March that Turner is pregnant, with a source exclusively saying that the little one is due “in the middle of summer.”)
