The Earnhardt team has welcomed a new future driver. Dale Earnhardt Jr. and his wife Amy have welcomed a new baby.
The NASCAR legend is a new dad to Nicole Lorraine Earnhardt. She was born Monday, Fox News reported.
“It’s funny how you choose the name. All those things are so fun, but the name part to me is the most jovial part of the whole process,” Earnhardt said, according to the “Today” show.
Nicole comes from Amy Earnhardt’s middle name and Lorraine is the middle name of the racer’s mother, Brenda, NASCAR reported.
He didn’t show any photos of his new bundle of joy, but says his daughter looks like him.
They already have a 2-year-old daughter, Isla Rose, who seems to be excited at being a big sister when she helped announce that her parents were expecting.
When Isla met Nicole, Earnhardt said his daughter said, “Aww, she’s so cute! Can I rock her?" the “Today” show reported.
Earnhardt made the announcement of his daughter’s birth on his podcast, “Dale Jr. Download,” released on Thursday, NASCAR reported.
