Kyle Busch and his family have always been an adorable bunch. Being a close-knit family, the year has been tough on them. With Kyle’s struggles in the latter part of the season translating into his playoff woes, wife Samantha Busch and her battles with hair loss has been another turmoil off the track. However, amidst these tough times, son Brexton has sent a heartfelt message to his mommy, hoping for her better health and lusher hair.

Samantha Busch shared her son’s thoughts through a story on the social media platform Instagram, calling Brexton “the sweetest boy.” She had revealed her fight with alopecia areata a long time ago, and in a recent update, things look like they have gotten worse over time.

Brexton poured his heart into what seemed like a school assignment. On being asked to write an informal letter and send it as an email based on his imagination, the budding racecar driver wrote,

“Dear Mom, I hope your hair stops falling out and starts to grow back and long again. I love you the most. Lock for me and key for Lennix. Love, Brexton Locke Busch”.

Samantha had earlier mentioned her struggles with the day-to-day problems her condition has forced her to face. Explaining in a reply to a fan’s comments, she said, “Not great. I feel like sometimes the shed is normal, and sometimes it goes into high gear. Hoping this new diet and supplements will help since the prescription meds had too many side effects for me.

However bad the situation might be, Kyle Busch and his loyal fanbase have been an unwavering partnership. It has supported the family in their tough times and continues to do so. Kyle Busch had originally planned to pass the baton to Brexton with the coming of age. But the recent sale of Kyle Busch Motorsports to Spire Motorsports has sparked a row of doubts over the process.

Kyle Busch had an idea to help his son run a part-time Truck Series schedule from 2031 to 2033. He’d have entered the competition as a full-time driver as he turned 18 in 2033. The KBM sale has, however, delayed the inevitable integration of Brexton into the grand scheme. With the youngster already leaning into grassroots racing, it is a matter of time before some team lands his services.

Alongside Kevin Harvick‘s son Keelan, Brexton had featured in this year’s Cook Out Summer Shoutout Series. In addition, 2023 also saw him making his Charlotte Motor Speedway debut earlier in the summer Bandoleros division. As for Rowdy, he thought of winning a Truck Series title with KBM. That feat would also make him the only driver to win NASCAR’s Cup Series, Xfinity, and Truck Series. The sale of his team has not only drastically shifted his plans but also the trajectory of his career.
