“When Ryan and I got together, we made a rule not to work at the same time so that we could always prioritize our personal life.” the Gossip Girl alum told Amber Tamblyn on Thursday’s (February 22) episode of her Substack show Further Ado.

The couple has stuck to their rule, and Blake shared what is required of them to make it work.

“That takes working really hard when we’re not,” she said. “Just like financial planning and sustaining that; it takes balance.”

Blake also explained why her and Ryan‘s promise is important given her past habituation to working all the time..

“I’m used to working hard and going and going and going and going and not stopping,” she said. “Especially, Gossip Girl was six years of my life, and we were sometimes shooting three episodes at once.”
