Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds aren’t hiding from the controversy!
The couple made a rare public appearance on Sunday night at SNL‘s 50th anniversary special amid their ongoing legal battle with Justin Baldoni — and they actually joked about the scandal on the show!
During Tina Fey and Amy Poehler‘s Q&A segment, a bunch of celebs in the audience stood up to ask questions. When the Deadpool star did so, the hosts wondered how he was doing, and he teased:
“Great. Why? What have you heard?”
OMG!

They then insisted “No, nothing” as he looked worried.
Sitting beside Ryan, Blake snapped her head up to look at him when the joke came out of his mouth. She looked stunned! As if realizing she was on camera, she quickly plastered on a smile for the rest of her hubby’s cameo. But was her reaction just for the bit or her true feelings?? Hmm. Take a look and decide for yourself (below) around the 1:30 mark:
