Reigning NASCAR Cup Series champion Ryan Blaney and his fiancee Gianna Tulio have set off to St. Martin on a vacation till the racing action resumes on August 11. Tulio uploaded a picture of herself planting a kiss on Blaney's cheek as the duo were seen basking under the sun at Pinel Island.
Gianna Tulio is a model by profession. She was born and brought up in Philadelphia. Tulio is a brand ambassador for Hooters and has worked with them on several projects at both domestic and international levels. She was crowned Miss Hooters in 2021. In the same year, she also won the 'Most Photogenic Award'.
Tulio captioned her latest post saying,
"Five stars 🌞🌊🍹"
Ryan Blaney and Tulio have been together since 2020. After dating for three years, the Team Penske driver popped the big question following his career-first NASCAR Cup Series championship victory last year. Tulio posted a picture of Blaney bending the knee against the snowy backdrop of Leavenworth, Washington, and captioned it:
"12•12•23 - I said yes to my forever "
The couple had their engagement ceremony recently at Hunter House & Gardens, a colonial-revived farmhouse in North Carolina that was originally built in 1913. Both Blaney and Tulio were seen wearing white outfits as they posed with their near and dear ones.
Festivities started for Blaney when he won the 2023 Cup Series Championship. Currently, he sits fifth in the Cup Series standings with 676 points to his name. Will the Team Penske star be able to carry them over en route to winning a back-to-back championship title? Only time will tell.
Ryan Blaney's fiancee Gianna drops another hint at their wedding day
In an earlier Instagram story, Gianna Tulio had let slip a probable wedding date. Although it was not an official announcement, the story showed a picture of Ryan Blaney and Tulio with the words "Save the date" and "December 12, 2024" written on it. The wedding will most likely take place somewhere in Aspen, Colorado.
Most recently, Tulio uploaded another post that showed Blaney and herself sharing an intimate moment at The Graylyn Estate in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The post was put up on June 14 and captioned:
"Yesterday was 6 months until we say I do ✨💍🥂🤍🕊️"
This reconfirms that Blaney and Tulio are getting married in December this year. The Ford pilot has even spoken to The Athletic recently about a unique pair of services that he wants for the guests at his wedding.
As the couple prepares for their big day, NASCAR prepares to return to Richmond Raceway on August 11 for the Cook Out 400. The Cook Out 400, which is also the 24th race of the season, will be broadcast live on the USA Network and NBC Sports. As of today, Team Penske has all three of their drivers locked in the playoffs. Therefore, the last four races before the playoffs will be all about avoiding on-track mistakes.
