'Safe House' actor Ryan Reynolds says he would love to have a big family with his 'Gossip Girl' star wife Blake Lively.
The actor does not like to talk much about his partner Lively whom he secretly married in September 2012 and insists his relationship cannot be expressed in words, reported Us magazine
"I don't intentionally try to be evasive about that stuff. If you ask me to describe my relationship, I mean words are too clumsy to accurately describe how I feel in that regard, particularly in an interview," said Reynolds.
"It's a strange thing. I understand the climate we live in and why people are curious. But it's just tough and almost emotionally violent-for anyone, I think to see your personal life summarised in a sentence," he added.
Reynolds, who was previously married to Scarlett Johansson, met Lively on the sets of 'The Green Lantern' in 2011.
"We both come from big families - my parents did four, Blake's did five. A lot of people say it's crazy, but we'll only know when we're there, you know? We'll walk through that fire pretty happily, I think," she said.
Reynolds, who looks forward to being a father realises that some things cannot be controlled-whether they'd have a boy or a girl.
"I'm terrified that I'm genetically predisposed to only having boys. That's frightening. By the time I was 10 years old, and I'm not exaggerating, I knew how to patch drywall. There's nothing my brothers and I didn't put a hole in. We turned our home into a Wiffle house. That's something I'm not looking forward to," he revealed.
