Almost exactly a month after launching what has turned into a very messy legal battle with Justin Baldoni, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have been spotted out and about, and — for the first time — together. The couple have been lying (relatively) low for the past few months, but a new Instagram story shows that there’s one former costar Lively’s not about to feud with: actor Michele Morrone.

Morrone, an Italian actor best known Stateside for appearing in the steamy Netflix movie 365 Days, posted a selfie with Lively and Reynolds (taken in a room that sure looks like their apartment) on Sunday, January 26, writing “Missed you guys! Love you!!” and tagging both stars.

Morrone has an unspecified role in the upcoming sequel to A Simple Favour, which Lively was shooting in Italy while It Ends With Us was going through post-production. Like the first movie, the Simple Favour sequel was directed by Paul Feig, who is also helming the movie adaptation of the novel The Housemaid, which Morrone has a part in. He posted a signed copy of the novel with a note from the author saying she’s glad to have him playing the character of Enzo.

You might remember that rumours of a Baldoni-Lively-Reynolds rift began to swirl after the actors didn’t appear in press pictures together, and fans noticed that the power couple had unfollowed the actor-director on Instagram. Given this latest pic, it seems like all these people get along.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’s legal issues with Baldoni were rumoured to be derailing plans for ASF2, but thankfully Feig shut that down online, saying the studio is aiming for a spring or summer release.
