“You Freak Me And My Kids Out”: Blake Lively Posts 8 Pregnancy Pics So The Creepy Paparazzi Will Stop Camping Near Her House
Last week, Blake Lively surprised her fans with the news that she is expecting her fourth child.
The Gossip Girl star proudly showed off her baby bump while walking down the red carpet at the Forbes Power Women’s Summit on Thursday.
The word quickly spread around the world, and many flooded the 35-year-old with messages of congratulations.
But the paparazzi have also taken an interest in Blake’s pregnancy. And they don’t care about the woman’s well-being at all. All they want is a shot they can sell for the tabloids.
So she undermined them.

But the paparazzi have put such a huge burden on her pregnancy that she turned to Instagram to slam them

Blake is already the mother to three girls: 7-year-old James, 5-year-old Inez and 2-year-old Betty. According to a US Weekly source, she and Ryan have their sights set on a boy for baby number four: “They are hoping for a boy this time around but, of course, they just want a healthy baby, no matter the gender.”
The pregnant actress, 35, and the Deadpool star, 45, “love being parents,” the insider said, noting that whether their fourth child is a boy or girl, they are ready to expand their brood.
“The timing is perfect because all of their kids are two years apart so they’re keeping with the pattern,” the source added.

“Blake is relieved that the secret is out. She held it in until she couldn’t anymore!” another insider told US on Friday. “She loves dressing up her baby bump and wanted to make a statement. … She’s truly glowing.”
Lively, for her part, gushed over her role as a mother and an entrepreneur during Thursday’s event, saying, “I just like to create. Whether that’s baking or storytelling or businesses or humans, I just really like creating.”

You can tell that privacy is really important to the couple. In June, US also heard that the duo work hard at a “protective” parenting style to make sure their kids grow up outside of the spotlight.
“Blake and Ryan have done a really great job at raising them away from the public eye and having as normal a life they can,” the source explained.
Here are some more lovely candid pics Blake has shared over the years:

Why the f**k are Paparazzi even legal? Stalking people around in order to take unsolicited photos of them and sell them in order to make money for themselves sounds like a bunch of crimes stacked on top of each other!

I have to admit the concept of paparazzi is really weird. It would drive me crazy to have theses leeches on my back. It really shouldn't be legal to beguin with but everyone buying those magazines are equaly responsible. Neither the paparazzi nor the trash magazines would exist if there were not so many people willing to pay them.

"It comes with the territory/it's just part of the fame" is an absolute BS argument. For the longest time, being a woman in the workplace meant that sexual harassment "came with the territory" or was a necessary part of keeping that job. It was BS then and it changed. Paparazzi are BS now and it needs to change.

doesnt the US have privacy laws? and press laws? like in germany for example you are not allowed to take pics of celebs on private property or around a hospital etc.etc.

Yep good on her. I don't agree with paparazzi stalking either. It is an invasion of privacy and should be illegal. They are celebrities when they go to an awards ceremony or are acting, but at home they are mum and dad to their own family. Leave them alone you cockroaches.

I have no interest in famous womens stomachs. And I know I am going to get a slew of downvotes, but really......the famous person is mad because too many people are paying attention to her? Its like leaving my keys in my running car when I go into a store. I SHOULD be able to leave the keys in the car, and it be there when I get back, because that what is right. Stealing is wrong. Famous people SHOULD be able to go about their lives without people harassing them. Because harassing people is wrong. But that's not really how things are, if you make your living being watched by the public, then you will probably be watched by the public. I understand celebs are 'people with jobs' but I would guess the people standing on the sidewalk to take pictures would also say that is their job. I'm sorry but I think I will save my sympathy for someone who really is in a bad situation. *packs her bags and waits to get voted off the island.....*

I love Blake (and Ryan….and them together). She is lovely and joyful and funny and warm and she should be able to leave her house in peace. I cannot imagine being photographed ALL THE TIME and having no privacy. Everyone deserves privacy, even celebrities.
