Blake Lively's soda company sponsors Wrexham's training kit

talksport.com, 24 May 2023, 18:28
Hollywood actress Blake Lively has joined husband Ryan Reynolds in becoming involved at Wrexham.

The 35-year-old's sparkling beverage company Betty Buzz has been named as the Welsh outfit's official training kit sponsor for next season.

And her brand will also be on the shirt sleeve of the women's team, with Betty Buzz to also have naming rights of the hospitality suite at the Racecourse Ground.

Lively, whose famous partner is Wrexham's co-owner, has been seen at the ground many times this season to cheer on the side in their quest to get out of the National League.

After 15 years in the fifth-tier of English football, Wrexham secured their return to League Two by winning the division with 111 points from 46 games.

It was announced on Wednesday that Betty Buzz has replaced Reynolds' own company Aviation Gin on the front of the training kits.

In a statement released by the club's website, Lively said: "The owners of Wrexham AFC reached out to me through official channels.

"Our team had, of course, heard of Wrexham AFC but once we officially learned about their refreshing vision, we knew it was the right official fit for our refreshing sparkling beverage. Officially."

Reynolds and fellow co-owner Rob McElHenney commented: "Betty Buzz pairs well with any beverage - whether it's Ryan's Aviation Gin or Rob's Four Walls Whiskey.

"But if any of you pair it with Rob's Four Walls Whiskey, Ryan will hunt you down and make you regret that choice.

"You can also just drink it alone! Anything but pairing it with Rob's delicious whiskey."

The club's Executive Director Humphrey Ker added: "We are delighted to expand Betty Buzz's involvement, as they become the trainingwear sponsor for all the adult teams at the club.

"Betty Buzz is a perfect partner for the club, locally, nationally and internationally with their every increasing distribution."

Reynolds recently joked that Wrexham striker Ollie Palmer has been subject to X-rated warnings from him for not wearing a shirt around Lively.

During an appearance on the Fearless in Devotion podcast, Reynolds 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****** shirt on and come back out to speak to her like a gentleman."
