Los Angeles, April 27 (IANS) Hollywood actor couple Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds exhibited some PDA while celebrating a major professional victory.

The couple, who were spotted at a Wrexham AFC soccer team match in Wales on Saturday, April 26, could be seen cuddling and cheering in the stands during the game, reports ‘People’ magazine.

The game was played between Wrexham and Charlton. Wrexham won the game with a final score of 3-0.

As per ‘People’, Blake Lively, 37, sported a cozy checked long-sleeved shirt, while Reynolds, 48, wore a casual white T-shirt with a gray button-up.

The win is especially significant for Reynolds, who purchased the team together with ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ co-creator Rob McElhenney in 2021.

The victory means that the former fifth-tier team has officially been promoted to the Championship, which is the second tier in English soccer. It also means that the Premier League, which is the most prestigious league in the U.K., is potentially within their reach in the relatively near future.

While Lively is seemingly now just as invested in the team’s success as her husband, Reynolds previously revealed that his decision to make such a major and unexpected purchase didn’t initially go over too well with his wife.

Reynolds and McElhenney extended their business collaboration again in October 2024, announcing that they had acquired Wrexham Lager Beer Co Ltd., the oldest lager brewery company still in existence in Great Britain.

Ryan wrote on his Instagram, "We’ve been with Wrexham for what seems like the blink of an eye, but so much has happened. I remember the first press conference, we were asked what our goals were… and I think Rob jumped in with, “The Premiere League.” People laughed. They had every right to. It seemed insane… But we weren’t kidding. I feel at home here. It’s a place that values community, decency and history. From the respect it pays to the Gresford Disaster, to the feeling of hope and miracles created by Mickey Thomas. These are big reasons Wrexham is growing into what it always was. It isn’t just a place with a history of ups and downs, it’s also a FEELING. And a feeling is sometimes as good or better than a memory. We made history. We’ve been promoted for a record third time in a row".

He further mentioned, "That doesn’t happen without the wisdom of Phil Parkinson and his coaching staff, or the talent of Paul Mullin. It doesn’t happen without Max Cleworth and Arthur Okonkwo. Or Mark Howard who may have one of the hardest jobs there is. I watched Sam Smith create a frightening blend between football and martial arts, scoring our second goal yesterday. The Stadium feels like a church. I know so many of you now. Since February, 2021, I’ve watched babies become regulars. And some regulars depart us for good".

"We’ve had the honour to scatter ashes of loved ones across that field. I’ve even watched every available hand shovel snow off the pitch to keep a match from cancellation. Somebody said the Welsh have the “heart of a poet and the fist of a fighter.” That’s what I love about this place. I wish the whole world could visit Wrexham", he added.

Additionally, in January 2025, the pair revealed that they were among a number of celebrity investors who had acquired a stake in La Equidad, a Colombian soccer club.
