Blake Lively Is "Legitimately Freaking Out!!!"
“We discovered season 1 over the pandemic. We were a year late to it. And it was already done. We never understood why it didn’t come back. We LOVED it,” she wrote. “Now it’s not only back, it’s back with Gigi Hadid. WHAT?!?!?!?!?”
She was absolutely gob smacked by the announcement and it showed.
“My vision board could not have manifested this. This is not a hustle post for my friend. I am legitimately freaking out,” her story continued. “And this line up. And the clothes from these designers. And G’s clothes each week. This is my Super Bowl.”
Lively is a fashion icon herself. From her Met Gala looks to her talk-show appearances, no matter where she is, Lively is constantly serving up lewk after lewk.
Lucky for Lively, she will have some time off of work to chill and binge “Next in Fashion,” given she is expecting her fourth child in the near future.
She debuted her baby bump at the Forbes Power Women’s Summit on Thursday, September 15, 2022.

The actress and her burgeoning belly graced the stage in a 70’s inspired flashy gold mini-dress. She wore a loose white scar around her neck, hoop earrings and a silky headband.
The couple currently share three daughters together: James (8), Inez (6) and Betty (3).
It’s unknown what the sex of their fourth child will be, but just basing it off the current Lively-Reynolds roster… a fourth girl could definitely be the answer.
