Blake Lively is on the front cover of Elle and gives an interview revealing that she has had four boyfriends in her whole life.

The Gossip Girl star tells the magazine “I’ve never been with anyone that’s not a boyfriend. If I spend time with a man, it’s because they're somebody that I know well who has been a friend for a while.”

Lively began dating Kelly Blatz, a childhood friend, in 2004. They split up three years later, when Lively landed her role as Serena van der Woodsen on Gossip Girl.

On the set of Gossip Girl, Lively met Penn Badgley and they got romantically involved. The relationship ended in September 2010.

Lively dated Titanic actor Leonardo DiCaprio for five months between May and October last year.

The 24-year-old is currently dating actor Ryan Reynolds, who she met on the set of Green Lantern.

When asked about the rumours that she and Reynolds are thinking about getting an apartment together on Fifth Avenue, Lively replies “Newspapers say a lot of stuff, don’t they? Though I wish I could afford half the places that I hear I’m looking at. Sign me up!”

When the subject of children came up, Lively says that she would love to have girls one day. “I have some amazing shoes and bags and stories that need to be appreciated,” she explains.

Read Blake Lively's full interview in the March edition of Elle, which will hit newsstands on February 14th.

Lively will star in the film Savages, which has a USA release date of 28th September 2012. The thriller is about two marijuana dealers whose girlfriend gets kidnapped by a Mexican drug cartel when they refuse to get out of the drug business.
