Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively 'deeply and unreservedly sorry' for wedding at plantation

Actor Ryan Reynolds says he and his wife Blake Lively will “always be deeply and unreservedly sorry” for holding their wedding at a former plantation in South Carolina.

Reynolds discussed his “shame” over the 2012 wedding at Boone Hall in Charleston County in an interview posted by Fast Company Tuesday.

“It’s something we’ll always be deeply and unreservedly sorry for,” he said. “It’s impossible to reconcile. What we saw at the time was a wedding venue on Pinterest. What we saw after was a place built upon devastating tragedy.”

The “Deadpool” actor said a “mistake like that can either cause you to shut down or it can reframe things and move you into action.”

The couple donated $200,000 to the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund in May as the Black Lives Matter movement grew in prominence following George Floyd’s death in Minneapolis police custody.

Last year, the couple reportedly donated $1 million to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and the Young Center for Immigrant Children’s Rights, according to Fast Company.

They are not sorry. They are terrified of being boycotted and cancelled, and are bribing their way out of it.

Pathetic.

I guess the virtue signal will be not getting married in a former Confederate state.

Haha. When I was in high school, we had our band pictures taken at Andersonville. Yes, THAT Andersonville. Americus High School.

They were good pictures in front of historic buildings.

I ain't apologizing.
