If a fan ever comes across Justin Haley at NASCAR’s racetracks, it’s most likely that his wife is somewhere nearby. Haley Haley has been extremely supportive of her husband throughout the entire 2023 season. No wonder Justin Haley made a P6 finish at the Bristol dirt race and went right into getting engaged.
In an episode of the Dale Jr Download, Justin Haley revealed his wife’s funny name “Haley Haley”. Both Mike Davis and Dale burst out into laughter. However, Mottinger saw nothing wrong with using her husband’s last name next to her name. She has already started making appointments with the name Haley Haley.
Justin Haley begged to differ. He said, “She loves it. She started dipping her toes into making appointments as Haley Haley and calling and making reservations… It’s a full-blown disaster, I tell you. It’s a mess.” The fun doesn’t just end there. Anyone would be surprised if they got to know that what resulted in these two lovebirds meeting each other was a mere bet.

Luckily, Haley was declared the winner as the race was shortened due to the rain. It’s then that the couple met and there has been no turning back for them. A rather unique story, isn’t it?
Fans joked about Mottinger’s unique name
