Hamlin posted the dapper picture on Instagram, with the caption: “Congrats Tyler!” However, he himself is still waiting for his turn to tie the knot.

Bubba Wallace already walked the aisle last year, and after his solid Indianapolis finish, he diverted his energy to celebrating his teammate’s wedding.

Congrats Tyler!”

Tyler Reddick’s achievements are not unknown. He scored his fifth Cup Series win at Talladega Superspeedway this year. Besides that, his runs showcased lavish speed – Reddick has already fetched eight top-five finishes this season. His better half is also no stranger to esteemed accomplishments. DeLeon works with West Kent, a group that offers free mental health support to young people. Her philanthropic activities are also remarkable – she founded Sembration Opita, an environmental non-profit organization. It helps the Dominican community through a dynamic commitment to reforestation and environmental education. The foundation has helped plant more than 700 trees.

So they are indeed a power couple, showcasing immense prowess in terms of successful careers. Tyler Reddick and Alexa DeLeon also share some unique stories. One involves coming to an agreement about their child’s name.

Reddick won both on and off-trackTrendingIn 2019, Tyler Reddick was competing for Richard Childress Racing in the NASCAR Xfinity Series. And his run was stellar – he clinched six trophies, 24 top-fives and 27 top-tens. And the current JGR driver could effectively use his racing success off-track as well. That year, Reddick and Alexa were expecting the birth of their first child. They locked horns over one pressing issue – what to name their child. Alexa wanted to go for ‘Ryker’, but Reddick did not like it.

Then DeLeon offered Reddick a deal: “Listen, you win this championship, you can name him whatever you want, but I don’t want you calling him anything until you are in victory lane holding up that championship trophy in Miami.” And that provided Reddick with a powerful motivation to defend his 2018 Xfinity title.

Tyler Reddick lived up to his word and dominated the Xfinity Series season. He clinched the trophy, earned a ride for a full-time Cup career with RCR in 2020, and got to name his baby. ‘Baby Beau’ was introduced as the name of the power couple’s son. Reddick recalled this year how that deal with DeLeon convinced him to clinch the championship trophy. “There was no way I’m gonna lose this championship. And that’s what put me over the edge.”

Now Tyler Reddick and his happy family can rejoice in an important milestone. His much-awaited marriage may give him a boost to clinch this year’s Cup championship, who knows?
