The mom-of-four’s male companion wore a pair of camouflage pants, black t-shirt and olive green windbreaker with grey accents.
The actress’ sighting comes after her husband, Ryan Reynolds, revealed their three children were once completely unaware that their pal Taylor Swift was famous.
The actor, 46, explained that their girls – James, seven, Inez, six, and Betty, three – assumed Swift was just a close friend of the family who sang for a ‘hobby.’

It wasn’t until they got to see the Multi-Grammy-winning recording artist in concert that they fully grasped her superstardom.
‘I think what’s most exciting for them is that for the longest time they just thought Taylor’s just like an aunt, like a friend of Mommy and Daddy that’s very, very close, almost family,’ said Reynolds during Sirius XM’s The Jess Cagle Show.
He continued: ‘And then they went to a concert one day and were like, “Ohhhhh, this isn’t a hobby.”‘

Swift and Lively have been close friends since 2015.
At that time, the Gossip Girl actress had been married to Reynolds for three years and they’d already welcomed their first daughter James in December 2014.
Lively would go onto to give birth to the couple’s second child, daughter Inez, in September 2016.

Nearly three years later, the married pair secretly welcomed a third daughter named Betty in October 2019 but they did not reveal her name publicly at the time.
It was not until the summer of 2020 that Lively and Reynolds gave Swift the honor of revealing their daughter’s moniker to the world through her song Betty.

And to celebrate the occasion, Reynolds said he planned a ‘Midnights dance party’ with his girls at their rural New York home.
‘We’re headed straight to the porch where we’re doing a full dance number set to Midnights, swear words included,’ teased The Amityville Horror actor, adding: ‘My favorite thing is when a 3-year-old is just throwing down the F-bomb in a song and has no idea.’
Reynolds and Lively revealed in mid-September that they were expecting their fourth child together.
Lively did the honors by confirming her pregnancy in an Instagram post that included a photo of her hugging Swift with her baby bump on full display.

The star said: ‘I know girls, so I’m kind of hoping that but I’m ready for whatever.’
Reynolds told the hosts that he and his wife ‘never find out’ their child’s gender before the birth.
‘We don’t know the sex of the baby and we never find out ’til [they’re born].
The actor spoke about his upbringing as the youngest of four sons, joking his siblings ‘were just arsonists and firemen’ before admitting he was the ‘ultimate girl dad.’
