how are blake and ryan's side business doing

Blake and Ryan’s side businesses appear to be doing quite well overall, with their portfolio still being described as broad and commercially savvy. Their business ventures include brands like Aviation Gin, Betty Buzz/Betty Booze, Mint Mobile, and Ryan’s stake in Wrexham AFC, and one source notes that Mint Mobile was sold for a reported cut of about $300 million in May 2024, while Aviation Gin was sold for $845 million but Reynolds remained involved.

What’s going on

  • Ryan Reynolds: His business mix is still seen as strong, especially around marketing-driven consumer brands and Wrexham AFC.
  • Blake Lively: Her drinks brands are part of the same broader family of side ventures and are presented as active, ongoing businesses.
  • Public buzz: Recent coverage has also focused on the couple’s legal and media attention, but that is separate from the basic question of whether the businesses are operating.

Bottom line

If you mean “are these side businesses still valuable and active?”, the answer is yes, by most public reporting they still look commercially significant. If you want, I can also break down each business one by one and say which looks strongest right now.
