(Ryan\u2019s) not so funny in real life.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;No, he\u2019s not so funny. He\u2019s very serious\u2026 he\u2019s a good actor. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;He can act funny, but he isn\u2019t funny. Maybe he can get to be funny again.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I\u2019m going to get in trouble. He\u2019s my neighbour.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nMartha and Ryan live close to each other in New York and she recalled becoming friendly with the Deadpool star and his wife Blake Lively as soon as they moved to the area.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe told the HuffPost in 2014: &#8220;(Blake) moved into my neighbourhood a couple of years ago with Ryan \u2013 before they got married they bought a house right around the corner from my house. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;And they started to come over, not to borrow sugar, but just as friends.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;They\u2019re very friendly, very nice people. In a way, kind of shy \u2013 not shy on the screen, at all, if you\u2019ve seen any of Blake\u2019s movies \u2013 but very shy in person.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/martha-stewart-becomes-swansea-city-minority-owner-1435102.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>24 December 2025 Martha Stewart has become a co-owner of Swansea City.
