Blake Lively in the mix of Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson divorce?

[HMG Celebrity News] – Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds seemed to have built the one solid marriage in Hollywood, but that scene is due to fade out – Scarlett is now in Jamaica with her girlfriends and has already told Ryan it’s over.

The pair married in a low-key ceremony in British Columbia on September 27, 2008. But two days ago came this joint statement;

After long and careful consideration on both our parts, we’ve decided to end our marriage. We entered our relationship with love and it’s with love and kindness we leave it.”

But the couple are handling the split ‘really well’ according to friends. No-one seems sure where Ryan is, but just before the news broke on Tuesday Scarlett and three girlfriends jumped on a plane, and they’re now at an exclusive resort in Jamaica.

And she’s still wearing the ring.

Sources say the two-year marriage had been ‘crumbling’ for months, with rumors of sparks between Ryan and Blake Lively on the set of ‘Green Lantern,’ a trial separation and even therapy visits;

“Scarlett began seeing a therapist two months ago, but was unable to hash it out,” one snitch tells the News.

And the end seems quite sudden; Last summer the couple bought a $2.8 million mansion in the LA area and even debated the need for a nursery. They also went shopping for a Manhattan apartment and mulled renovations to their existing NYC penthouse. But plans were as far as they got.

Ryan, 34, was spotted just before Thanksgiving at ‘Avenue,’ a trendy club on 10th Avenue, and Scarlett was right by his side. Onlookers assumed they were celebrating her 26th birthday, but they were actually taking a break from a weekend of debating the problems that threatened to split them.

The very next night, Ryan was at an unknown location, while Scarlett had dinner with some girlfriends on the lower East Side. A few days later he returned to New York – and Scarlett then told him she wanted out. They agreed instead on a two-week separation. Once the two weeks were done, so were they.

And Blake Lively seems to be a big factor in the split; Sources say the link between her and Ryan “wasn’t exactly up to wedding vow snuff” while they were filming ‘Green Lantern’ in Louisiana earlier this year.

So another seemingly blissful connection turns to toast in two years. Did you think they’d hit trouble, or could all the upcoming pain have been avoided? Let’s hear your reviews…
