How Tall Is Blake Lively? Discovering The Height Of The Star

When you think of Hollywood celebrities, their height can often be a topic of conversation. Blake Lively, known for her roles in Gossip Girl and The Age of Adaline, stands out not only for her acting skills but also for her impressive stature. Did you know that Blake Lively is taller than the average American woman? In this article, we will explore Blake's height, how it compares to others in the entertainment industry, and how her height has influenced her personal life and career.

Blake Lively's transformation over the years has included both becoming a famous star who enjoys a lavish lifestyle and becoming a mother of three children. The star has a trio of daughters — James, Inez, and Betty — who she shares with her husband and fellow celebrity, Ryan Reynolds. That new role has come along with a change in Lively's physique, which she opened up to Vogue about in February 2017, saying, "The past few months, I've learned to love my body in every iteration. And it's a challenge. It's something that I have to remind myself of every single time I put on an outfit that doesn't fit like it used to — or doesn't fit at all!"

One thing that may not have changed in recent years when it comes to Lively's body is her height. Quite frankly, she is one actor who happens to be quite tall. Standing at 5 feet 10 inches, she is not only taller than many of her peers but also stands out in a crowd. This height has not only shaped her on-screen presence but also influenced how she perceives herself.

Blake Lively: Taller Than the Average American Woman

If you're a woman in the United States and you're around 5-foot-4, then you are in the range of the average height for ladies in the country, according to Medical News Today. However, when it comes to Blake Lively, she is quite a bit taller than that. The actor stands at 5 feet 10 inches, according to Business Insider. This makes her significantly taller than many of her female counterparts.

Of course, she is not the only tall star in the entertainment industry. In fact, there are quite a few other famous figures who share the same height as Lively. For instance, some of Lively's best friends, such as Taylor Swift, also measures 5 feet 10 inches tall, as does Gigi Hadid, Tyra Banks, and Gal Gadot. The same goes for Charlize Theron, Laura Dern, and Khloé Kardashian. It's clear that being tall is not uncommon among successful women in Hollywood!

While the fact that quite a few stars are that particular height might make being tall seem like an advantage, Lively admitted something about her appearance while taking to Instagram in April 2018 to share a photo of herself appearing on "Sesame Street" with Big Bird. In the caption, she wrote, "Kids used to make fun of me in elementary school by calling me Big Bird (because I was 'too tall' and had 'yellow' hair). Here's to making best buddies with the things that once hurt you." This shows that even celebrities face challenges regarding their appearance.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds: A Tall Power Couple

Blake Lively isn't the only famous figure in her family. Her husband, fellow actor Ryan Reynolds, is 6-foot-2, according to Celeb Heights. Considering the average height of a man in the United States is 5-foot-9, the "Deadpool" star is obviously taller than average, just like his wife. Together, they make quite the striking couple!

While the two celebs likely won't be getting any taller than they already are, Reynolds says that another kind of growth is key to their relationship. In November 2021, he told Entertainment Tonight that not only do he and his wife get along and always have, but he noted, "We grow together. We learn from each other. So yeah, I'm lucky to have a buddy in that." This demonstrates that their relationship extends beyond just physical appearance.

As for being a tall couple, Lively and Reynolds aren't the only above-average pairs you might recognize. For instance, Kate Middleton is 5-foot-9, while her husband, Prince William, is 6-foot-3. Serena Williams is also 5-foot-9, while her husband, Alexis Ohanian, is 6-foot-5. Kendall Jenner is 5-foot-10, making her slightly taller than Middleton and Williams. It looks like Lively and Reynolds are in good (and tall) company!
