Family Outing at Yankee Stadium
On Friday, August 7, actress Blake Lively posted an Instagram carousel that captured a day out with husband Ryan Reynolds, their four children, and close friends at Yankee Stadium. The images were taken on July 29 during a preseason soccer match in which Wrexham AFC—co-owned by Reynolds—faced Liverpool FC. The family’s appearance together in public is unusual, as the couple typically keeps their children out of the spotlight.
Background: Reynolds’ Role with Wrexham AFC
Ryan Reynolds has been a co-owner of the Welsh club Wrexham AFC since 2020, an investment that has turned the modest team into an internationally followed property and inspired the documentary series “Welcome to Wrexham.” The July 29 match marked a milestone for the club, being staged at the iconic New York venue Yankee Stadium.

Match Outcome and Significance
While Liverpool secured a 1-0 victory, the Lively-Reynolds family emphasized that the result was secondary to the personal significance of watching Wrexham compete on American soil. The match underscored the club’s growing profile and the personal connection the owners feel toward the team’s milestones.
Official Statements & Responses
She also highlighted longtime photographer Guy Aroch for documenting the occasion, noting that capturing memories with loved ones is an irreplaceable gift. Reynolds’ brief remarks in the carousel were limited to a supportive presence alongside his wife and children.
Style and Accessories
During the outing, Lively wore dark-wash Reformation jeans paired with a blue linen shirt, accessorized with Cartier jewelry, an Audemars Piguet watch, and a zebra-print Fendi bag lined in red. She began the day in Christian Louboutin heels before swapping to Nike sneakers later in the event. Reynolds dressed casually in a plaid shirt, beige pants and white sneakers.
What’s Next
No further public appearances or scheduled events related to the family outing have been announced. The couple continues to balance private family life with public engagements tied to Wrexham AFC and their individual careers.
