Ryan Reynolds is having a brilliant start to the year, having recently become a father for the fourth time.

What's more, just a month after Blake Lively all but confirmed that the couple's new addition had been born, Ryan had another exciting bit of news to celebrate over the weekend.

Taking to Instagram, the Deadpool actor shared the results of his football team Wrexham's triumph after they won 2-1 against Bromley on Saturday.

The actor purchased the Wrexham FC team in early 2021 with co-chairman Rob McElhenney, and recently even took his oldest daughter, James, to the team's stadium.

He took his first trip to Wrexham in 2022, having not been able to come along sooner due to the pandemic restrictions.

In an episode that aired in September, Ryan was seen receiving a FaceTime call from his wife and daughters, James, eight, Inez, six, and Betty, three.

In the clip, he said: "Gotta answer this,” and one of his daughters was heard saying: “Hi dad, look at you on the field!” Though the FaceTime call wasn't shown, Blake was heard rooting on her husband and saying: “Wow, that’s so cool.”

Now balancing life as a family-of-six, Ryan and Blake couldn't be happier. Blake had shared a photo of herself on Instagram, showing the A Simple Favor actress visibly without her baby bump, alluding in her caption that it was a recent snap and that she had "been busy."

Ryan was asked about his fourth child during an appearance at the CNBC's Power Lunch just after the Super Bowl.

When asked about the gender of their baby, all the actor had to say with a laugh was: "I'm not telling, this ain't a birth announcement."

Speaking of life at home since, he continued: "It's a zoo over here. This is my office here. To be honest, I'll probably spend the rest of my life in here."

He added: "Look, we wouldn't do this four times if we didn't love it. Everybody's doing great. Everybody's actually doing fantastic. If we hadn't figured it out by now, I think we'd be in deep, deep trouble."
