Ryan Reynolds is a guy with a lot going for him. He has a wife in actress Blake Lively. He has children, one of whom brand new baby. He just sold a cell phone company he owned for a huge sum of money. He co-owns a football team and, oh yeah, he does movies too. But it looks like that football team is becoming an even bigger priority for Reynolds, as he just bought a new house not far from the team home at Wrexham.
The sun reports that Reynolds has quietly bought a four-bedroom house in the village of Marford for a whopping £1.5million, or around US$1.85million. That’s certainly a sizable sum of money, although far less than where Reynolds and Lively currently live in New York City, which is worth around $4.7 million. In addition to having a home in Pound Ridge, the couple also have an apartment in Tribeca.
Reynolds and Lively are among a growing list of celebrities who have decided to live outside of Los Angeles. Now, it looks like the family will be spending at least some of their time even further from Hollywood than most. Not only will they be halfway around the world geographically, but the village of Marford only covers about three square miles, so it’s incredibly small compared to where Reynolds currently lives, let alone Southern California. .
Granted, the new home near the football club he owns indicates he plans to spend a lot of time there, so Reynolds isn’t planning on becoming a homeowner anytime soon. The actor has always been involved in his endeavors outside of acting, including appearing in most TV commercials for Mint Mobilethe cell phone company he just sold to T-mobile.
Reynolds and his co-owner Rob McElhenney have reportedly invested a large sum in Wrexham FC in an effort to make them more competitive and promote the team. Reynolds also made an offer for buy the Ottawa Senators hockey teamso he uses that Mint Mobile money wisely.
That’s not to say Reynolds is preparing to move to Wales just yet. Expectations are that Dead Pool 3 is gearing up to begin filming fairly soon, and the film has a November 2024 release date. Hugh Jackman became “Wolverine shaped” the past few months, and the film has been building its cast, so we can expect filming to begin before too long.
Honestly, buying a nice house and moving to a quiet village in Wales sounds pretty amazing. There are definitely worse places to live. Good for him. I hope he and his family will have a wonderful time there.
