Actor Ryan Reynolds is the owner of a football team. If you didn’t know, here we tell you.

This is the Welsh team Wrexham AFC and currently plays in the fourth division. But he is not the only owner, they share ownership with fellow actor ʀᴏʙ McElhenney, and together they have cultivated a true family within the club. So much so that for one of the team’s players, Anthony Forde, Ryan Reynolds became a hero after saving his wife’s life after being diagnosed with a brain tumor.

And the day after becoming the father of his first child, the player and his wife Laura received sʜᴏᴄᴋɪɴɢ news: a neurosurgeon diagnosed him with a malignant tumor and that due to the location where it was located, it was impossible to operate. . In short, Laura had very few months to live. Laura Forde herself told all this to The Sunday Times newspaper. “My son was only four weeks old and they told me that he would not see his first birthday. While he was feeding him he was planning my funeral.”

The diagnosis caught the attention of Blake Lively’s husband, who got them another appointment with the doctor to get a second opinion. The specialist, located in New York, was a little more optimistic, he sent Laura to have a biopsy and the result was surprising: the tumor was benign and was grade 1.

“It was an emotional roller coaster,” said Laura. “At first I was shocked, I couldn’t believe it. I was so vulnerable, but I felt like I should be happy about all of this. I had just gone through the worst seven weeks of my life, and with a newborn. Now I have post-traumatic ѕтяєѕѕ syndrome as a result and I have had to start therapy,” said the soccer player’s wife.

And although she continues to be monitored to ensure that the tumor does not grow, the new specialist is focused on this. The couple, for their part, cannot stop thanking Ryan Reynolds for having given them this other option.
