A Love Affair with Soccer and Ryan Reynolds
Blake Lively, a caring wife or an epic prankster? It seems like a bit of both. When her husband, Ryan Reynolds, couldn't control his emotions over a soccer game, she made sure she had the front-row seat to the spectacle - even if that meant buying a subscription!
"Worth it" to Watch Reynolds' Anxiety Live
Reynolds, a known soccer enthusiast and co-owner of Welsh soccer team Wrexham AFC, watched with bated breath as they played Sheffield United. The game ended in a nail-biting 3-3 tie, but not before Lively, decided to tune in to his raw emotions on ESPN+. "I bought ESPN+ today. Just to watch my husband experience crippling anxiety live," she shared with her 37.8 million Instagram followers, back in January, dubbing the whole affair as "worth it."
From Surprise Ownership to Shared Obsession
Initially, Lively was a bit on the fence about Reynolds' decision to buy Wrexham AFC with Rob McElhenney. As reported by People, the large investment didn't instantly win her over. But it seems like Lively has become a soccer enthusiast herself, thanks to her husband's passion.
"She's actually more obsessed with Wrexham than I am," Reynolds revealed. Lively's obsession grew so much that she's even planning which matches to attend. "We were laying in bed after the Wembley match and she's like, 'I'm now as obsessed if not more than you are with this club and this community and this town and everything it represents and where it can go,'" he said. "She's as obsessed as I am," he proudly stated.
Reflecting on the matches, Reynolds even mentioned some big names like Beckham and Will Ferrell, indicating the intense excitement surrounding the games. As Lively wrote, "Life makes no sense," but one thing's for sure - this celebrity couple's shared love for soccer is winning hearts!
