The second season of Welcome To Wrexham is just around the corner. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney starred American sports documentary will be up for streaming on September 12. The series will debut on FX and it will hit the streaming giants the next day. Not too long after releasing the first installment of the 7th most-watched program, the Welsh football club owners announced the making of a second season.

While the Wrexham AFC has progressed a lot in just a year, the involvement of the royals sparked the hype around the upcoming documentary. As per reports, the owners of the Welsh club went through a crash course to meet the royal pair ahead of their visit to the Welsh club.

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney spilled the beans on their training

King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla visited the Welsh club’s racecourse ground in December last year, and they are going to be a part of the upcoming sports documentary as well. Recently, the official Instagram page of Wrexham AFC released a short trailer, captioning it as “Rob and Ryan get a crash course in royal etiquette”. The look of horror on the Deadpool actor’s face and phrases like “I feel like a serial killer’ had fans in stitches. However, the trailer also showcased the Wrexham owners’ attempts to treat the monarchy of Britain with the utmost respect. 

In Reynolds’ words, the training was extremely intense and was no less than military camp training. The 46-year-old went on to call it a “monarchy boot camp” and said, “It’s like the military except your pinky’s always up”. The page also shared many other glimpses from the trailer, giving a glimpse of what the second season is going to unfold. This includes the Welsh club’s defeat at the semi-finals, the Royal involvement, and the team’s dedication to achieving victory. 

The Wrexham owners’ encounters with the royals are not just limited to the documentary. Recently, McElhenney was spotted with the Duke of Sussex during an MLS match.

The Los Angeles FC (LAFC) versus Inter Miami match garnered a lot of attention owing to the popular celebrity appearances. From Selena Gomez and Tom Holland to Leonardo DiCaprio, the Messy-fever drew a gathering of A-listers from Hollywood. The fan-favorite football club’s owner, McElhenney, was also present at the game. Amid the absence of his pal Reynolds, he hung out with his co-star from It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, Glenn Howerton, and Prince Harry. 

Howerton shared a picture of the three on his Instagram captioning it as “Great seeing Harry and some of my favorite club owners Bill and Bob last night at @lafc v. @intermiamicf”. Even during the controversy of the Prince and Meghan Markle series, the Wrexham owners chose to distance themselves from making any polarizing remarks. The duo even went on to say that they never saw or heard about the series, affirming a place in the good books of the Royals.
