Ryan Reynolds pays tribute to the late actor Robin Williams.
The Dead pool star, 46 — who received the Robin Williams Legacy of Laughter Award from the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention on Monday — shared a heartfelt post about the beloved comedian on Instagram.
“I miss Robin Williams,” Reynolds wrote, alongside photos of the late star’s children Zak, 40, and Zelda, 34. “Pretty sure everyone misses him. His children forever turned his legacy into a living, breathing love letter. It was an insane honor to receive the Robin Williams Legacy Award last week at the annual Bring Change to Mind gala in NYC.”

“The incomparable @glennclose started @bringchangetomind, whose mission is to end the stigma and discrimination surrounding mental illness,” he continued, posting photos of Glenn Close and Whoopi Goldberg at the event. “Glenn is literally saving lives by creating space for these conversations. I love this woman. Follow @bringchangetomind for more info… Also, being grilled all night by some of the funniest people in the world was something I’ll never forget… without the help of a hypnotist.”
Ryan Reynolds says his anxiety makes him feel like a ‘different person’ from his public persona

Ryan Reynolds shares how he copes when his mental health ‘gets out of control’
“For me, the best time of the day is walking them to school and walking them back,” he told PEOPLE. “I think as parents we are much better equipped to deal with the hardships of childhood through our children now than when I was a child. It’s just completely different now. People are much more self-aware. And that is what we pay most attention to in our children’s self-awareness. Don’t be happy, don’t be anything, just be self-aware and welcome everyone inside.”
The Red notice star and actress Lively (36) share three daughters: James (8), Inez (7) and Betty (4). They had their fourth child in February.

After the birth of the last child, Reynolds revealed CNBC Power Lunchh how he and Lively adjusted as a family of six.
“We are very excited,” he told the newspaper. “Look, we wouldn’t be doing this four times if we didn’t like it.”
“Everyone’s doing great. Everyone’s doing fantastic, actually,” he said Project Adam added the actor. “I think we would be in big, big trouble if we hadn’t figured that out by now.”
During his appearance, Reynolds joked that their house was like a “zoo” and said: “This is my office here and to be honest, I’ll probably spend the rest of my life here!”
