In one picture, he cropped his wife's earrings. He posted the picture with an apology for cropping Blake's cute earrings and gave the picture hilarious not by hiding his face behind bold captions.

He penned, "Posting this again because I cut my wife's cute earring. She trained me better than this. Sorry if I let anyone down."

Recently, Ryan spoke recalled his first meeting with Blake in 2011 on the set of Green Lantern. During an appearance on Smartless Podcast, Ryan revealed he made the first move and said, "I met Blake on the darkest crease in the anus of the universe called Green Lantern".

After that, the pair kept in touch as good friends. While scrolling through memory lane, Ryan said, "Next thing you know, she was going to Boston, I was going to Boston, and I said, Well, I will ride with you. We got on the train, and we rode together." He said, he decided to buy a house together the following week. A year later, in 2012, the pair tied the knot.
