The Free Guy actor is famous for his expression of love for his wife, Blake Lively, and his kids, publically. However, after being a part of Wrexham AFC, it seems his love is shifting courses. On the 12th of September, Welcome to Wrexham season 2 premiered, where his admiration for his club was visible. In the premiere, the actor learned they would not be receiving the $20 million grant from the UK government to renovate the stadium. Therefore, to raise funds for the stadium, he joked about selling one of his babies.
Wrexham AFC’s advisor to the board, Shaun Harvey, broke the news to the owners when Reynolds acknowledged the huge problem. While Harvey consoled the owners and promised them they would think outside the box to find a solution, Reynolds offered to sell one of his children. He jokingly said, “I have four. I don’t even know their names.” While he joked, McElhenney expressed his doubts about the 46-year-old actor having this whopping amount.
During the confessional interview on the show, McElhenney revealed he would talk to Lively to know if he had $20 million lying around. Earlier, the Wrexham FC owners proposed to get funding from the government to expand the stadium’s capacity to host people. While the deal seemed optimistic, this recent update put the owners in a difficult position. Nevertheless, with the team’s efforts, everyone appeared to have hope. This is not the first time Reynolds’ dedication to the club took over his family or even his work.
