Ollie Palmer continues to have a positive relationship with Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac after leaving Wrexham.
Ollie Palmer was one of the first major signings Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac made as Wrexham owners.
The Hollywood pair coughed up a club-record £300,000 for the striker during the 2022 January transfer window.
Palmer went on to cement himself as a club icon, playing a key role in their historic back-to-back-to-back promotions.
However, he fell out of favour at the end of January before departing the Racecourse Ground permanently in August.

Ollie Palmer on relationship with Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac
Palmer has now been discussing his relationship with Reynolds and Mac post-exit.
Despite leaving North Wales, the number nine shared that he is still in regular contact with the actors.
The 33-year-old spoke about Ryan and Rob on the Life of a Kitman podcast, praising their ‘genuine’ natures.
He said: “I have a great relationship with both of them.
“I was talking to Ryan yesterday and Rob messaged me four days ago. I think his wife was talking about because his wife’s also called Caitlyn and he said, ‘Oh, Caitlyn just told me that you’re having a baby. Congratulations.’ I was like, ‘Oh, thanks Rob, hope the family is well.
“So like you can see the reality to it, that they’re real, they’re genuine people.
How Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac reacted to Ollie Palmer leaving Wrexham
Palmer did not play a League One fixture after January 28 and never made an appearance in the Championship this season.
He had his contract terminated in late August so he could secure a move to Swindon Town.
After the news was confirmed, Reynolds and Mac sent messages to Palmer on social media.
Rob wrote: “I think the first photo is the first time I met this gloriously handsome, supremely gifted, kind and charismatic man. A great Husband, Dad, friend and of course footballer. @olliep9_ I can’t believe it’s time for you to move on. I’m in awe of your grace and (yes I swear your humility.)
“People only see what happens in public. They don’t know the Ollie I do. He’s given us so much. And I will miss him and his beautiful family. My only hope is that he has success on the pitch and returns to us in some capacity because he will always, always, always be a member of @wrexham_afc and always have a home with us.”
Ryan wrote: “Gut punch… Ollie is a big reason we’re in this league today. Not to mention the boundless charisma and charm… he harnessed a lifetime of talent, heart and work-ethic to push Wrexham AFC and the town forward.
“Spending time with Ollie’s incredible family: his wife, Caitlin, amazing kids and his dad, Andy, are forever-memories. Ollie is my friend now and always.
“The silver lining is Swindon Town is an excellent club and they get to experience that same feeling Rob Mac and I felt as Ollie steps onto the pitch at The County Ground to push Swindon FC forward and up the pyramid. Thank you, Ollie.”
