During NYFW the Age of Adaline actor admitted in a new interview that her night away from home was a way of enabling her to have 'a whole alternative life'.
While at the Michael Kors' AW22 runway show, she told E! News: 'This is his first night show ever, which is very exciting,' before adding, 'I could put my kids to bed and then secretly sneak out and go have a whole alternative life'.
Lively, who watched model mothers Irina Shayk, Emily Ratajkowski and Gigi Hadid walk the runway at the American designer's fashion show, also spoke about how her glamorous fashion week outfit compares to her usual at-home looks.
Wearing a baby blue custom version of a sequinned skirt and crop top from Kors' SS22 collection, which she complemented with Christian Louboutin heels, Lively joked: 'I like not wearing pyjamas. Anything is a level up from that.'
'I like a tone on tone on tone moment. Michael just makes the sleekest lines and you always feel effortless in it and still glamorous, which is him. He's effortless and glamorous and sparkly and sunny and magical.'
While Reynolds was unable to join his wife for the occasion, Lively was in the company of her older sister Robyn, 50, who she explained was actually supposed to leave town ahead of the show.
Speaking of her sister, she explained: 'It was her birthday last week and when I ran into Michael at the Music Man the other night, he told us about the show and we had to go and I talked my sister into staying just for Michael. She's not here for me. She's here for him.'
Reynolds later shared a photo of the A Simple Favour star on his Instagram Story, which he accompanied with an animated heart gif. Lively re-shared the Free Guy actor's post, along with a hilarious animated gif of her own, which nodded to her delight at Reynolds' sentiment.
Appearing to confirm just how family-absorbed Lively is, Reynolds gave her a shout out on Mother's Day 2021 when writing on Instagram: 'It can’t be said enough… you’re the heart and soul of every moment this family shares. I’m grateful for the light and for the kindness you smuggle into each and every second of our lives.
'I see you in the eyes of our children… Every laugh. Every blink and every thoughtful moment of vulnerability. The tender grit it takes to be a mother in 2021 is an act of pure strength and heroism. [sic]'
