Blake Lively Calls Out Instagram Account For “Exploiting Children”

Blake Lively, the mother to James, Inez, and Betty with husband Ryan Reynolds, criticized an Instagram account dedicated to posting photos of children of Hollywood stars. The account had posted (and since deleted) a paparazzi photo of Lively, Reynolds, and their three children.

“This is so disturbing,” the Gossip Girl actress commented, revealing that she had already reached out to the owners of the account asking them to stop posting her children. 

Lively’s condemnation continued: “These [paparazzi] men stalk and harass my children. And you are still posting. You said you would stop. You personally promised me. This is not casual appreciation. This is YOU also exploiting very young children. Please. Delete. Please.”

After the post was deleted, Lively thanked those who supported her call for accountability for social media accounts that exploit children. “YOU make ALL the difference,” she told her fans.
