Ryan Reynolds shared a love-up selfie with his wife Blake Lively amid their bitter legal battle with Justin Baldoni.
In the image, the happy couple, who wed back in 2012, can be seen posing for a cute picture together on the street as they both smiled directly at the camera.
He paired the picture with Hootie & the Blowfish’s 1994 hit Only Wanna Be with You playing on the background of his Instagram Story.
Their date night comes after their lawyers raised new allegations in their hotly contested case in court on Monday.
Baldoni’s attorney Bryan Freedman pleaded with the judge to move the case forward as quickly as possible because his client was ‘suffering greatly.’
Lively’s lawyer Michael Gottlieb, however, vehemently denied the claim that Lively was purposely dragging her heels in the lawsuit.

Judge Lewis Liman denied a move from Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds to gag Team Baldoni following the series of bombshell claims made by his legal team.
But Gottlieb said they intend to hit Baldoni with fresh allegations in Lively’s sexual harassment case, and insisted that protecting the couple’s celebrity friends was going to be ‘very important’.
Gottlieb told the court during the hearing that they intend to add ‘both claims and parties’ to a revised complaint which will be filed by Valentine’s Day.
The move came after Baldoni updated his own complaint in his $400 million defamation case against the Gossip Girl star which accused Lively of giving The New York Times advanced access to her complaint of sexual harassment during the filming of the movie It Ends With Us.
Gottlieb attacked Freedman for making statements outside of court which had challenged the ‘character, integrity and truthfulness’ of Lively.
After complaining, Lively’s lawyers were told was that ‘we (Lively) started it’ with the New York Times article, Gottlieb said.
Gottlieb cited an interview in People magazine in which Freedman accused Lively of a ‘pattern of bullying.’
In another statement Freedman claimed that if Lively really was sexually harassed she wouldn’t have returned to the film.

A skeptical Judge Liman said: ‘isn’t that what’s stated in his complaint?’
Gottlieb said no and that lawyers were ‘not supposed to launch attacks on another party’s character’.
He added that the leaking of raw footage from It Ends With Us was ‘particularly concerning’ because it could start an ‘arms race’ whereby lawyers have to appear in the media to fire back at every disclosure.
‘If there’s no guard rails in place….we (the attorneys) have to and go out on shows arguing on shows what a particular document or video means’.
Freedman fired back that the statements had ‘not been a one way street’ and tried to walk the court through a number made by Lively’s lawyers.
After listening to them, Judge Liman said Freedman ‘went a little bit further’ than Lively’s lawyers.
The judge said that he was adopting rules for lawyers known as Rule 3.6 which bars both of them from making extrajudicial statements that could influence the jury.
