Here’s a quick interview Blake did with the Evening Standard Magazine about her “London experience” – hopefully we will get to see more of Blake in the London and Europe in the future.

Home is…

New York. I live in Manhattan.

Where do you stay in London?

I’ve never found the one place to stay but I saw a hotel on the Goop website called Blakes that I really want to try.

Last show you saw?

Rent in the West End, which at the time had Caprice in it. It was very funny watching a musical about New York and the Lower East Side with the cast all speaking in British accents.

First thing you do when you arrive?

Go to the Hat-Gallery M/V on Earl’s Court Road. It has such beautiful, interesting pieces, some of which I would buy but never actually wear. When I’m back in New York I get the staff to send me photos because I love the hats so much.

Which animal would you most like to be?

A bird, because it would be amazing to fly.

As we reported back in September Blake and Ryan Reynolds married quietly and secretly in Charleston, South Carolina. Marthastewartweddings.com has finally revealed some of the long-awaited wedding photos (although there’s sadly not much to see of Blake’s beautiful Marchesa wedding dress) on their website. For more on the wedding, be sure to grab a copy the winter edition of the Martha Stewart Weddings issue !

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are no strangers to a sea of cameras aimed at them. But when they decided to marry, they wanted to celebrate in privacy—and in style. And while they remain protective of images of them on their most heartfelt occasion, they graciously let us share pictures of the elements we created together.

Blake did recently a cover photoshoot for Allure  (she even took her adorable nephew and niece to the shoot !) where she talks otherwise about wanting to have a many kids in the future, her on screen co-stars and and much more.

ALLURE.COM – Her wedding. Her hair. Her fame. Well, the new wife of Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, talked about two of the three. Check out exclusive photos from our shoot with the actress and photographer Carter Smith.

Lively is skilled at evading questions about her romance with Ryan Reynolds, whom she married a month and a half after our interview. “I’m a very shy person,” Lively says. “I can be outgoing, but I’m also very private.” However, she does—perhaps unwittingly—reveal some clues about her life. “I’ve always wanted a big family,” says the actress. How many does kids she want? “Oh, I’d love 30 if I could,” she says. Here, Lively poses in a tulle dress by Marchesa.

Lively’s down-to-earth persona is genuine. ”I don’t drink. I’ve never tried a drug,” says the actress. How about clubs? “The music is so loud, you can’t have a conversation with somebody,” she complains. “If I were an amazing dancer, yeah, I’d go, but I’m definitely not. My friend calls me a speed walker because my elbows are everywhere.” She adds, “It’s not like I decided on these strict lifestyle choices and I’m enforcing them. It’s just something that I genuinely don’t have a desire for.” Sweater by Balmain, briefs by Michael Kors, and boots by Le Chameau.

We asked Lively about some of her leading men. Of Taylor Kitsch, who costarred in Savages, she says, “Our first day [was filming] the sex scenes. I was in a full-length skirt, a full top, and he was the one with his tush sticking out. But that was kind of empowering, like, ha-ha!” And as for Ben Affleck, who she appeared with in The Town, she says, “As somebody who knows Ben and Jennifer [Garner], they cannot be more sacred with their family and their home life.”

MARIECLAIRE.CO.UK – Blake Lively has had her fair share of dashing leading men – to recap she’s worked with Ben Affleck, Eddie Redmayne and her current boyfriend Ryan Reynolds - but her favourite on-screen love interest has come something of a surprise to us. 

Speaking to Marie Claire for our October issue (on sale in newsstands from Thursday 6th September), Blake revealed that rather then Reynolds, who she lives with in upstate New York, her most treasured filming experience was with Alan Arkin in The Private Lives of Pippa Lee.

She said: ‘Honestly, Alan Arkin was one of the best love interests I’ve ever had. He was the most kind, fun and a challenge – because he was clearly very uncomfortable with the fact that I was 19 and he was 72.’

During her interview with us, the 25-year-old actress also recalled the moment she fulfilled a lifelong dream – to meet the Spice Girls.
