“This club means so much to me,” he told the club website. “I’m glad my last game for the club went as well as it did and I could have that moment with the fans at the end.”
Alongside the post Lucy reshared with her own following, Ryan said: “Thank you for everything @pnefcofficial To all the staff, fans and the lads, I wish all of you nothing but the best for the future. Up the Lilywhites.”
The soap star then went on to share a video of Ryan playing in the garden with their two-year-old son, giving a sweet glimpse into their happy family life together.
