Still riding the waves of success and absorbing his hard-earned victory, the driver announced the second chapter of his life.
As the NASCAR community gears up for the festive season, filled with mirth and revelry, it seems that the 2023 Cup Series champion is ready to turn the pages in his life. While spending the off-season with his loved one, Ryan Blaney went down on one knee, with a sparkling solitaire to propose a lifetime of togetherness to his long-time girlfriend and former Hooters model Gianna Tulio. And guess what Tulio said? It’s an obvious “Yes.” The picture was posted by Gianna Tulio, on her Instagram profile. She wrote, “12•12•23. I said yes to my forever.”
While it’s not known how these two individuals met, it has been over three years that Blaney and Tulio have been together. The would-be wife of Blaney could always be seen accompanying the driver on the race weekends and was also part of the championship celebrations in Phoenix.
