All that controversy over the Peloton commercial critics are blasting for body-shaming just landed the star of it a hilarious new gig … with Ryan Reynolds.
Monica Ruiz is the actress who plays the wife — sorry, long-suffering wife to many — in that Christmas gift themed fitness spot, but now she’s also starring in an ad for Aviation Gin … and it plays perfectly off all the Peloton buzz.
Based on the commercial … the formerly spinning-crazed wife is now more interested in downing booze with her girls. The strong insinuation here is she’s left the husband who “forced” her to get on the bike every day.
The ladies toast to “new beginnings” before the wife pounds her martini. One of her GFs even says, “You look great, by the way.”
Of course, Aviation is Ryan’s company … and ya gotta hand it to his marketing team for capitalizing off the social media uproar over Peloton.

Reynolds tweeted the commercial with the caption, “Exercise bike not included.”
Bottoms up!!! Meaning the martini glass, not her … ya know.
