Ryan Reynolds appeared subdued during a quiet outing in Connecticut on Friday.
The sighting comes soon after the 49-year-old actor and his wife, Blake Lively, were reportedly left off the guest list for Taylor Swift’s lavish New York City wedding celebrations.
Adding to the attention surrounding the couple, Justin Baldoni recently ended nearly two years of silence after his legal dispute with Lively was settled in May before it could go to trial.
Lively, 38, has since asked that Baldoni cover $8.3 million in legal fees, a figure he has criticized as “excessive.”
Reynolds kept a low profile while out in the small town of New Canaan, wearing a short-sleeved shirt with khaki pants.

Daily Mail has contacted representatives for Reynolds for comment but has not yet received a response.
Last week, Baldoni and his wife Emily finally broke silence following the end of the lawsuit by posting a video to Instagram.
The pair, who have been married since 2013, accused Lively of causing them ‘pain’ over ‘untruthful’ claims.
Baldoni, who starred in and directed the 2024 film It Ends With Us with Lively, explained the reason they hadn’t spoken yet was because ‘something was telling us not to.’
‘And we were talking about it and feeling into it and praying about it,’ he continued, while his wife added, ‘…And this feels like the moment.’
Emily expressed, ‘There is so much to say, and it makes it hard to speak. It makes it hard to figure out what is right for us, for this specific moment.’
Baldoni told fans and viewers that ‘we’re not gonna say it all.’
‘But what does feel important is that we can genuinely say that we are sitting here today feeling immense gratitude for so many things and so many people and so many things that have happened to us,’ his wife said.

It comes shortly after Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively were snubbed by Taylor Swift after the pair did not receive a coveted invite to the singer’s lavish NYC nuptials; Swift and Travis Kelce seen in March in L.A.

Baldoni stated that what saved them was ‘gratitude.’
‘I also feel that it’s important as we say that, in that gratitude, it doesn’t negate the injustice and the pain that we have also felt in the last few years,’ Emily expressed in a serious tone.
‘And we’ve had to wrestle with so many things and try to understand things like how could something like this even happen. Let alone disguise as a fight for women. So much to unpack.’
She admitted that their family has been dealing with ‘a lot of trauma’ which ‘also makes it hard to speak.’
Baldoni then said, ‘We don’t even know this is the right thing to say, but we just know we need to share something.
‘What I will say is that there have been so many painful things that have been spoken into existence…’
His wife chimed in with, ‘Untruthful,’ as Baldoni continued, ‘…over the last couple years.’
He explained they simply ‘wanted to let the justice system run its course,’ and Emily added, ‘The truth, and the facts, have spoken for themselves.’
Following the end of the lawsuit, Baldoni gave an update by saying their family is still ‘healing.’

The filmmaker, who is also known for projects such as Jane The Virgin and Five Feet Apart, sent thanks to fans who had voiced support over the course of the legal battle.
‘But we’re here in large part because of so many of you and all of our friends and family,’ Baldoni continued.
‘And one thing that we’ve learned is that when God presses the reset button, and everything else is stripped away, that that’s when love shows up. And we feel so loved.’
He promised that they will have more to say later.
‘But for now, we are going to focus on continuing the healing and hanging out with our kiddos and enjoying life.’
Following the lawsuit, Lively has since asked that Baldoni cover her legal fees which amounts to a little over $8 million.
Attorneys for the filmmaker alleged that the actress was attempting to claim an ‘exorbitant’ amount of money from him. Baldoni’s team also claimed the sums charged by Lively’s lawyers were ‘excessive.’

Swift and Lively had been close for many years, with the actress previously joining the Grammy winner at the 2024 Super Bowl in Las Vegas.
The Love Story hitmaker and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end said ‘I do’ in front of 1,000 guests at Madison Square Garden on July 3.
Some celebrities that were in attendance included Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, Jack Antonoff, Hugh Grant and Graham Norton.
Swift’s longtime publicist Tree Paine, who was also in attendance, offered details of the wedding in an email blast shortly after the nuptials.
‘The bride and groom’s wedding ceremony looks have been created by Christian Dior Haute Couture.’
Paine also revealed that Swift did not have bridesmaids and the NFL player did not have groomsmen for the ceremony.
‘Instead, her brother Austin Swift served as Taylor’s Man of Honor and Jason Kelce was Travis’ Best Man. The ceremony joined both families together and was officiated by friend Adam Sandler.’
Kelce’s brother Jason was in attendance and his daughters served as flower girls throwing white and pink rose petals around the bride as she walked down the aisle.
At the time of the nuptials, Lively and Reynolds were spotted 300 miles away in Lake Placid, New York, TMZ reported.

A source also told the Daily Mail that the actress is ‘sad and a little bit p***ed. No, a lot p***ed.’
‘That friendship was over before but if there was hope, it’s gone. They’ll never be friends again.’
The insider noted that Lively had ‘wanted to go’ to the wedding while adding, ‘It feels bad to be excluded like that.
‘She had sort of hoped that despite everything, their history was enough that they’d be included, but that’s not the way it went.’
