Wrexham’s Ollie Palmer Reveals What Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney Are Really Like as Bosses
Even when cameras aren't rolling, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are Wrexham A.F.C.'s biggest supporters.
Just ask forward Ollie Palmer, who joined the soccer (or football, depending on where you live) team in 2022, just over a year after the Deadpool star and the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia actor bought the Welsh club.
"But it's the same with everyone, if someone gets injured, he’s the first person to contact them, same with Rob," he noted. "It's great to have owners that want to help you, want to add to your life and give you that encouragement and support."
And it's not just for the show. "They do things for people in the community," Palmer added of the Welsh town with a population of nearly 50,000. "They do so much more than what even so many of us know, but it's not for the cameras."
With Reynolds and McElhenney cheering them on, Wrexham recently earned a promotion to England's League One from the National League.
"We've got a really talented squad," Palmer told E!. "But success isn't really given. There's a lot of teams, even in the National League and League Two, that have big budgets that are trying to get promoted, and it's not easily done. It's a credit to the lads, the coaching staff."
And Palmer is stepping into this new chapter in style, with help from American Crew.
"It was the hair product that first caught my eye because on holiday," he explained of the partnership. "I'm literally doing my hair and then the next day waking up with my hair looking exactly the same. So now I've started using the full sets I just feel a lot better for it."
"It is genuinely a really good product," he added. "And that is why I decided to work with them because I love the product."
While fans get a glimpse of Palmer's style on the soccer field, they also might see him in an extra special project this summer: Reynolds' Deadpool & Wolverine.
