In the controversial sport, the Peloton wife is given an exercise bike by her husband and tracks her progress with the implication that she is losing weight at his request.
The ad drew sharp criticism and sent Peloton’s stock tumbling.
In the new ad, this time for Reynolds gin company, Ruiz is seen sitting with friends staring ahead in awkward silence, presumably stunned by the blow-back from her appearance in the ad, reports DailyBeast.

The pals tell her she is “safe here” and toast to “new beginnings.” She throws back the drink in one gulp and says, “This gin is really smooth.” Reynolds posted the ad on his Twitter feed and wrote, “Exercise bike not included.”
