Ryan Reynolds Enforces Unique Rule for Wrexham AFC Players Around Blake Lively

Date:

Key Takeaways:

– Ryan Reynolds, co-owner of Wrexham AFC, insists on strict adherence to a unique rule involving his wife, Blake Lively.
– Reynolds has expressed his displeasure about Wrexham striker, Ollie Palmer, frequently ignoring the rule.
– Despite this, Reynolds still regards Palmer as one of the best players around and has no hard feelings.
– Under Reynolds and Co-Owner Rob McElhenney’s ownership, Wrexham AFC has experienced substantial success and increased recognition.

Ryan Reynolds, co-owner of Wrexham AFC and Hollywood heartthrob, has set down a rule for his Welsh football team to adhere to strictly when around his wife, Blake Lively. This directive, seemingly eccentric but non-negotiable, mandates each player to wear a shirt when meeting and greeting Lively.

A Tradition of Non-Compliance

Despite the clear instruction, one player, Ollie Palmer, seems to enjoy keeping his shirt off when interacting with Reynolds’ wife. This has been observed on multiple occasions, causing the Marvel movie star to publicly voice his vexation.

Reynolds recently revealed his irritation during the Fearless In Devotion – Wrexham AFC Podcast. Here, he mentioned that Palmer is consistently the first from the dressing room, shirtless, eager to engage in conversation with his wife. Reynolds humorously expressed his displeasure, continually reminding his striker to “put a f–king shirt on and come back out like a gentleman.”

Palmer’s Continued Affection

However, Reynolds insists he has no hard feelings against Palmer and considers him “one of the best guys we know”. Palmer reciprocated this sentiment, expressing his appreciation for the passion and involvement shown by the club owners.

A Fairy-Tale Run with Wrexham AFC

Ever since Reynolds and fellow actor Rob McElhenney bought Wrexham AFC in 2021, the club has experienced a meteoric rise. It achieved back-to-back promotions, winning the National League title in 2022 and ascending to the EFL League One for the 2023-24 season.

Moreover, Wrexham AFC’s dominance has also been felt at home in Wales. The team has garnered a record 23 wins in the Welsh Cup, according to The Week, earning a reputation as one of the country’s most dominant and powerful teams.

Additional Achievements Under Reynolds’ Ownership

The club’s success is far from limited to on-field accomplishments. Off the pitch, Wrexham AFC has entered into a lucrative partnership with Gatorade following their promotion. Also, the Emmy-winning docuseries, “Welcome to Wrexham”, sponsored by Hulu, details their journey from obscurity to acclaim.

In this context, Palmer reiterated his belief that Reynolds and McElhenney inspire the team to strive higher. He lauded their dedication to the team and community, stating in an interview, “When you’ve got owners like them, you want to run through more bricks for them”.

Despite the strange yet specific rule, it’s clear that Reynolds’ humorous demand has not strained his relationship with Palmer or hindered the impressive success of his football club. As the club continues its fairy-tale run, all Reynolds wants in return is a bit of decorum in greeting his wife.
