Ryan Reynolds has revealed he has to shield a shirtless Wrexham star from his wife Blake Lively whenever she attends games.
Reynolds and co-owner Rob McElhenney regularly head into the dressing room of the National League champions and have a fine rapport with the playing squad.
The Red Dragons title-winning heroes have just had a lavish all-expenses trip to Las Vegas on their owners' dime and experienced the very best treatment at bars, clubs and restaurants.
Still, Reynolds was happy to dish the dirt on record signing Ollie Palmer, who joined for £300,000 from AFC Wimbledon in January 2022.

He and McElhenney appeared on the Wrexham Fearless in Devotion podcast and were asked which Wrexham player enjoys the cameras the most.
Reynolds immediately named 17-goal striker Palmer, with McElhenney confirming, "It's not even close".
The Deadpool star then explained that a shirtless Palmer frequently converses with his Hollywood wife Lively, though did compliment him as "one of the best guys".

He said: “Every time we've come as a family we've come over we have a walk down to the dressing room.
“Ollie is always the first one to walk out, completely shirtless, to have a conversation with my wife. I'm like, 'Ollie put a f**king shirt on and come back out to speak to her like a gentleman'.”
“Ollie is one of the best guys I know though, really funny, and I'm thrilled for him and his clothing brand. It's nice to see that take off.”

Wrexham's stars were kitted out in WXM Clothing attire when they jetted out to Vegas and all profits from sales in the club shop go towards the Wrexham AFC Community Trust.
The other issue Reynolds has, is that, his mum is rumoured to flirt with captain Ben Tozer and he notably quipped, "She’s not a bad looking woman at 77!".
In response, the Canadian jokingly suggested that Tozer could be his “new stepdad" if Wrexham secured promotion back to the Football League.
He might now have to live up that promise after Wrexham's stunning 111 point campaign under Phil Parkinson.
