Everyone’s been on the edge of their seats because of Denny Hamlin; not just for his racing, but for some wedding news too! Denny Hamlin and Jordan Fish are working together as parents to their two amazing girls, but in contrast to everyone’s hopes, there wasn’t any wedding news! Remember back in 2021, Jordan let loose a couple of tweets about splitting from Hamlin? Everyone was sure they’d go their own ways, and maybe just team up for the daughters.

But their recent pics on social media, all snuggled up and looking beautiful with their girls, really got people talking. And the photo dump was for the big news – the couple is finally getting married. Besides the news itself, her caption was worth giving a read.

After 16 years, Denny Hamlin and Jordan Fish are finally ready to say, “I do!”

Everyone thought Denny was waiting to nab a championship before getting down on one knee. But after 18 years in NASCAR and 16 with Jordan Fish, they think it is time to make things official. Have you seen Fish’s latest post? It’s got all these cute family photos. And the caption read, “Rings: DH 0, Jordan 1.”

Not to mention, she was dropping hints way back in February 2023. Jordan Fish put up this Instagram story that read, “I am a woman who is more than worthy of being chosen by the wonderful man who is proud to call me his wife.” However, Hamlin, always fast on the track, sure took his sweet time in the romance department, it seems.

Their love story started back in January 2007. Denny Hamlin just couldn’t take his eyes off Jordan Fish when she was dancing for the Lady Cats. Talk about love at first sight! He even supported her at the Miss South Carolina event, and the rest is history. Despite a rocky road, including a decade of dating and two kids, the couple hit a bump and parted ways. But at the 2023 NASCAR Award Banquet in Nashville, snapshots of them together sparked rumors of rekindled flames, leaving fans guessing about their relationship status.
