People question whether Ryan Reynolds was hacked after seeing his birthday post for Blake Lively

People are questioning whether Ryan Reynolds has been hacked, after seeing his latest Instagram post.

Fans had been eagerly awaiting The Proposal actor’s birthday tribute to Blake Lively, with the A-Lister’s long-suffering wife usually becoming the joke of his banter-fuelled posts.

However, Reynolds broke tradition with a surprisingly sweet post - which immediately caused concern among many of his followers. (Seriously, someone needs to check on them!)

It’s seriously strange because if you take a look through the Wrexham FC owner’s social media, you’ll see endless posts lovingly roasting his wife, Lively.

Reynolds is even known to embarrass his wife on her birthday, with the Deadpool actor often uploading a rather, um, unflattering photo of his beloved.

Just last year, the A-Lister shared a snap on Instagram of his wife asleep with lettuce on her face as part of his annual birthday tribute (Yes, really!).

However, the Proposal star broke tradition with a touchingly sweet post, which included some beautiful photos of them together and an equally romantic caption.

It read: “The only thing irrevocably mine in the world is the love and appreciation and awe I feel for this person.”

“Witnessing her life is something I couldn’t take for granted if I tried. And believe me, I try…”

The soppy caption continued, with the Hitman’s Bodyguard actor then adding: “Happy Birthday, @blakelively. You hung the damn moon.”

Unsurprisingly, many fans rushed to the comments to share their concerns over the potential Instagram ‘hack’.

In fact, one-pointedly replied to the post: “Is your account hacked? You’ve posted all good photos?!”

Others also shared their shock, with another adding: “…surprised there aren’t any photos of her cropped out this time…”

Having been disappointed by the sickly-sweet post, many fans entertained themselves by responding with hilariously sarcastic comments.

“Please don’t post good pictures of her, I thought you guys had broken up,” joked a third, after seeing Reynold’s loving birthday tribute.

Meanwhile, a fourth user added: “Bloody hell, was that a sincere post? Now, I’m gonna get grief from the wife, kids crying, nice one.”

Some even came up with their own conspiracy theories about the post after it was shared yesterday (25 August).

“Ryan is probably being held at gunpoint by Blake…,” theorised an Instagram user, adding: “…bc there’s no other explanation…he didn’t post a bad picture.”

We still think he’s been hacked, but anything is possible with these two pranksters.
