KEY POINTS

- The “Shallows” actress said sharing celebrity kids photos without permission is disturbing
Lively was thankful to those who understood and supported her amid the ordeal
Blake Lively was livid after photos of her and Ryan Reynolds' children were shared online.
The "Shallows" actress and Reynolds share three children together, James, Inez and Betty. The couple is very strict when it comes to their kids that they do not share photos exposing their faces on their accounts. So, Lively was furious when the Hollywood Star Kids Instagram account posted a photo of her and Reynolds with their kids on its page.
"This is so disturbing," she commented according to E! News. "I've personally shared with you that these men stalk and harass my children. And you are still posting. You said you would stop. You personally promised me. This is not casual appreciation. This is YOU also exploiting very young children. Please. Delete. Please."
"Some parents are ok with this. We. Are. NOT," she added.
The post has since been deleted. Blake was thankful for those who expressed support to her and unfollowed pages that do not respect parents' wishes for their kids.
"Thank you to everyone UNFOLLOWING accounts who exploit children. YOU make ALL the difference. Thank you for your integrity. Thank you," she wrote on her Instagram Story while sharing a screenshot of one fan who condemned platforms that publish pictures of celebrity kids without permission.
The fan in the post said not a single person in the movie, music or sports industry would want their kids to be stalked or harassed by a pack of men. "Sorry to see this keeps happening to you and your family Blake," her supporter wrote.
Lively is not the only actress who doesn't want to expose her children on social media. Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard also condemned the practice of photographing celebrity kids. The couple founded the "No Kids Policy" in which media outlets agreed not to purchase and publish photos of celebrity kids.
"Game of Thrones" star Sophie Turner also slammed those who tried to photograph her and Joe Jonas' daughter, Willa.
"She is my daughter. She did not ask for this life, to be photographed," Turner said in a since-deleted video, as per E! News. "It's f--king creepy that grown old men taking pictures of a baby without their permission. I'm sickened, I'm disgusted and I'm respectfully asking everyone to stop following us around and stop trying to take pictures of our daughter and especially printing them. It's disgusting and you do not have my permission."
