Two months prior to Blake’s CFDA Awards appearance, the “Deadpool” star shared some words about being a dad to their four kids, James, Inez, Betty, and Olin Reynolds, on podcaster Amanda Hirsch’s show “Not Skinny But Not Fat.”

During the podcast episode, which Amanda posted on YouTube on August 2, 2024, the host brought up the fatherhood advice Ryan gave on a talk show in 2016.
The two recalled how he had emphasized the great magnitude it takes for a woman to give birth and that fathers should at least help out by changing diapers.

Amanda then asked if Ryan had any updated advice to give. “Now it’s like, ‘How absent can I be? How long can I go without even a cursory phone call?'” quipped the actor, who prompted a laugh from Amanda.

The doting dad then disclosed his serious answer, “No, I — Right now, I think it’s just, embrace this like — the chaos. We have four kids. Like, nothing is gonna be tidy ever again. When you walk in it — yes it will though, when they all leave the house.”

He then shared words that Blake frequently says to him, “‘They’re all under our roof right now […] We have them all.’ And like that is a fleeting thing, it is a very — not an infinite resource.”
Ryan acknowledged that while there will be tough times parents face, they should still embrace “the chaos of it all” as they won’t have the chance to do so forever.

These reflections about his kids are not the first instances Ryan has brought them up. In the month before his appearance on “Not Skinny But Not Fat,” Ryan mentioned James, Inez, Betty, and Olin in his speech at the “Deadpool & Wolverine” premiere in New York on July 22 (2024).
It was at this event that Olin’s name was revealed to the public for the first time, which prompted a flurry of online comments.
