This is the picture which Blake used to announce her pregnancy. Speaking previously about starting a family, the Gossip Girl star told Marie Claire magazine: “I gotta get started. If I could spit out a litter of kids, I would.” Blake and Ryan tied the knot in South Carolina back in 2012 having met on the set of The Green Lantern the year previously.

The couple have been married for two years. Alongside the photographs, the passage read: “Preserve at its core is about family. Family is the single word our founder, Blake built this home on.” It continued: “With family on our mind, we looked to the origin of it all – to the women in our lives who are right there, at that special moment; at the creation of family. “Today we celebrate them. With food to fill their tummies (as if that needs more filling), presents to soothe their tired (and swollen) soles, toys to warm their baby’s souls, projects to provoke them, and decorations to inspire creativity and merriment in all.”
