"He's always on his phone" - Amy Earnhardt playfully calls out Dale Jr. over screen time battle

Amy Earnhardt playfully called out her husband, Dale Earnhardt Jr., over the screen time debate. The former NASCAR driver's wife answered the questions asked by the fans during their appearance on the Bless Your 'Hardt's latest podcast on YouTube.

A fan asked the couple what their screen time looked like, and who among the two had a greater screen time. Amy took a shot at her husband’s screen time while answering the question, as she said:

“I actually debated this because he's, I feel like he's always on his phone scrolling and looking at things. I am on my phone quite a bit, but I'm ordering dog food or scheduling something for the kids. I'm not actually just fluffing and, like, entertaining myself.” (1:00:46 onwards)

“So our screen time is pretty similar. But he has an iPad, an iPhone, a computer, an iRacing rig. He's always on a screen, always looking on a screen. Whereas I'm just, I've got my phone and for the most part, it's doing something productive. It's about 50/50, like joy and just working on something,” added Amy Earnhardt.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. replied:

“Yeah, she's 100% correct.”

Dale Jr. and Amy Earnhardt then continued to fight over and checked their screen time on their respective mobile phones. Amy averaged a little over 4 hours, whereas the former NASCAR driver, who struggled to find his screen time, averaged over 7 hours.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. then went on to discuss how Amy Earnhardt, who celebrated her birthday earlier this week, drained her phone a couple of times. The 50-year-old thanked his fans for messaging Amy on her birthday, filling up her DMs, and tagging her on the post uploaded by the JR Motorsports co-owner.
