Ryan Reynolds experienced a betrayal of a particularly hurtful kind after the birth of his daughter, James. 

“A guy that I’d known for my whole life, one of my closest friends growing up, he had been shopping pictures of my baby around," Reynolds told GQ for the magazine's latest issue. "I kind of got in front of it, which is good. But it was a slightly dark period. A bad couple of weeks.”

The "guy" was a close friend of Reynolds who he has known for 25 years. 

"It was like a death. It was like one of those devastating things to find out," he said, adding that the person did it for the money and didn't think he'd get caught. "It was, like, so kind of shocking. There isn’t really a conversation to have. It’s just, ‘Oh, well, now I’m never going to see you or talk to you again, unfortunately.’ That’s kind of how it worked out.”

Fatherhood has been a life-changer for the "Deadpool" star, who welcomed James with wife Blake Lively last December. 

“I’ve learned that an inordinate amount of clichés are completely true,” he added. “Like, there is this kid here that I would walk through fire for. Or, maybe not fire. Like, a very hot pavement, I’d walk through. A shag rug.”
