Ryan Blaney's fiancée, Gianna Tulio, shared a heartwarming moment from Scott McLaughlin's family as they welcomed their baby girl.

Blaney got engaged to Tulio after winning the Cup Series championship last December and they plan to tie the knot this year on December 12. The couple had been dating for nearly three-and-a-half years before Ryan Blaney proposed in Leavenworth, Washington.

Gianna has worked at Hooters for over seven years, and has been a Brand Representative for the restaurant chain since July 2021. Tulio, who is also a freelance fashion model, is very active on social media and shared a post by McLaughlin on October 12.

Scott McLaughlin currently competes in the IndyCar Series with Team Penske. He was the Supercars Champion for three consecutive years (2018, 2019, and 2020) and also won the pole at the Indianapolis 500 this year.

"Lucy Violet McLaughlin came into our lives on 10/10/24 at 6:12pm You are so much more than we could’ve ever dreamed of, we love you so much," wrote Scott McLaughlin in a post.

The IndyCar driver and his wife Karly celebrated the arrival of their first child on October 10.


"I try not to mix work with my home life" - Ryan Blaney on mental health and finding balance

Defending NASCAR Cup Series champion Ryan Blaney talked about his important habit of staying mentally healthy when not racing.

In an interview last month, the 30-year-old said it is crucial not to stress out. Blaney tries to keep his work and home life separate. He sets aside one day a week to spend time with his fiancée and relax.

"Don't stress out over things. That's the biggest thing. And also, I try not to mix work with my home life. I try to have one day of the week where I step away from this and have a personal day with me and my fiancée, and go do our thing. You can go crazy thinking about your job all the time, so I think just less stress and not letting things bother you," said Blaney (via Parade).

Ryan Blaney had a rough day in the second race of the Round of 12 at Talladega Superspeedway last weekend. He crashed at the end of Stage 2 after a push by Alex Bowman, which also took out Ross Chastain.

He finished in 39th place but is sixth in the Cup Series standings with 3073 points (25 clear of the playoffs cut-line) ahead of the Bank of America Roval 400 this Sunday, October 13.
