Ryan Reynolds celebrates holiday differently this year. He explains what he and his wife, Blake Lively, plan to do on Christmas this year because of the ongoing pandemic.
On his Instagram story, the Deadpool actor showed that his family would not be celebrating with other family members. He told PEOPLE that they would be having a low-key Christmas this year.
Kids would not be seeing their relatives this year
The 44-year-old actor shared that his kids would not be seeing their grandparents over the holidays. He also said that it "sucks" because his children would also not meet up with their friends, aunts, and uncles.
The dad-of-three compliments other families who are doing the same. He said that his hats are off to them for doing social distancing due to the pandemic. He shares three daughters with Lively after they got married in 2012.
Shared his life at home
One month ago, during an interview with Access, Reynolds shared his life with his wife and children at home. Gia Francesca, Mario Lopez's ten-year-old daughter, asked him how to become the ultimate girl dad.
Reynolds explained that while he had never imagined being a dad of three daughters, he loves being a girl dad. He said that since he came from an all-boys family, having daughters has been such a ride for him; However, he noted that he loves every bit of it.
Loves spending time with his family
The Deadpool actor said that spending time with his family is what he cherishes most about being a father. He shared that he tries to be present to them as much as he can. He said that they travel all over the places together when he and his wife shoot movies.
According to Reynolds, the best part of parenting is spending a lot of time together with your family. He said that the first people he would lean on is his family because they are the most capable people he knows.
The Canadian native shared that his family has wisdom and strength, but they could also stay calm under fire and have the courage under fire.
Dr. Anthony Fauci will also be celebrating small
Apart from Reynolds, other parents also want to follow protocols to prevent the further spread of COVID-19. Dr. Anthony Fauci also shared that it is the first since his children's birth that he is away from them over the holidays.
He said that he would be spending alone time with his wife, Christine Grady. He advises other Americans to follow suit. He said that they should be careful during the festive season because of the country's increasing number of cases.
He noted that the unusual situations would not last forever and that everything would be back to normal once the approved vaccines were distributed. He also advised people to keep themselves healthy so that they could enjoy more Christmases in the future.
