At Wrexham, it’s co-owner Ryan Reynolds known for his witty craic, but his Hollywood actress wife Blake Lively left Wrexham fans in stitches with her show of wit on Sunday. Reynolds and co-owner Rob McElhenney were in Wrexham at the weekend taking in the Racecourse Ground’s double-header of high-stakes Wrexham drama, with both the men’s and women’s teams claiming league victories in front of record crowds.
And while completing a lap of honour to a standing ovation of Wrexham fans after Wrexham Women’s 2-1 win over Connah’s Quay Nomads on Sunday, Lively was implored by a supporter to say hi to his girlfriend Stephanie. The Gossip Girl actress duly obliged, before adding the cheeky instruction: “You should leave him!" and adding with faux shock: "Did I say that?”
Supporters were left in hysterics at the pitchside exchange, with Stephanie apparently “over the moon” at receiving the video message, which has also been posted onto social media. Wrexham Women rounded off a sensational league season with a 12th win from 12 as Rosie Hughes’ 84th-minute winner clinched all three points in front of a record Welsh domestic crowd of 9,511.
