In a joyous and emotional announcement that has brought smiles across the NASCAR world, Cup Series champion Ryan Blaney and his wife have welcomed a beautiful set of twins into their family. The couple, who have been married for over a decade, shared the heartwarming news just days after Blaney’s strong finish at the latest NASCAR Cup Series race — marking a week he says he will “never forget for the rest of his life.”
Blaney, 31, took to social media to share the happy update with fans, posting a touching photo of two tiny pairs of racing-themed baby booties alongside a heartfelt caption: “Welcome to the world, little ones. Double the joy, double the blessings. We’re beyond grateful.”
The twins — a boy and a girl — were born healthy and strong, according to a statement from the family. Blaney described the moment he first held them as “a feeling more powerful than any checkered flag I’ve ever chased.”
Known for his cool demeanor and fierce competitiveness on the track, Blaney showed his softer side as he opened up about what this moment means to him personally. “This is the biggest win of my life,” he said. “I’ve celebrated victories, championships, and unforgettable moments in racing, but nothing compares to seeing our two babies for the first time. This is a moment of pure love, pure life.”
Blaney also praised his wife for her strength and grace throughout the pregnancy and delivery. “She’s my rock,” he said. “Seeing her become a mother of twins — I’ve never been more proud of her. We’re a team on and off the track, and now we’ve got the most incredible pit crew to look after.”
The NASCAR community erupted in celebration following the announcement, with fellow drivers, teams, and fans flooding social media with congratulations. NASCAR even issued an official statement, calling the birth of the twins “a moment of joy for the entire NASCAR family.”
Blaney’s Team Penske crew surprised him at the garage the next day with tiny fire suits embroidered with “Team Blaney Jr.” and baby-sized racing helmets, showcasing the love and camaraderie within the sport.
As Blaney balances his growing family life with the ongoing Cup Series season, he says he’s more motivated than ever. “I want to make my kids proud,” he said. “They’ve already changed my life forever.”
From victory lanes to nursery nights, Ryan Blaney now has double the reason to keep pushing forward — both on and off the track.
