If there is one thing that calmed down Kyle Busch this season, it was spending time with his family. The two-time Cup Series champion went through a dismal year, which snapped his 19-year-winning streak. Speeding penalties, crew shuffles, and multiple DNFs stuttered his progress. However, Busch recharged in an ideal way for every race weekend – having fun with his family. Yet, even that time can become boring for him.

His wife Samantha Busch is a social media icon. As an entrepreneur, lifestyle blogger, author, and IVF advocate, she has a happening social life. When she pulled over at her local fashion outlet for a quick bout of shopping, her husband was not so enthusiastic.

Several things annoyed the 231-time NASCAR National Series race winner in 2024. First was his faltering growth in Richard Childress Racing. No matter how many times his crew was shuffled, speed was an elusive factor for the No. 8 Chevy. Then Ricky Stenhouse Jr. delivered an uppercut to Kyle Busch after the All-Star race. Corey LaJoie spinning Busch at Pocono Raceway was also not a very pleasant event. Well, all these racetrack incidents may have numbed Busch’s capacity to enjoy an outing with his wife.

So recently, when Samantha Busch went out shopping, she was a tad bit irked. Kyle Busch accompanied her duly like the faithful husband, as the entrepreneur sifted through her fashion choices. However, when Samantha checked up on her better half, she saw Busch lounging on a sofa and scrolling through his smartphone. The utter lack of interest that this meaningful posture betrayed could not help but elicit a hilarious reaction from Samantha. She took a video, uploaded it on Instagram, and wrote sarcastically about the ‘boys’ mentality. “Did you even go shopping if your husband doesn’t look like this 😂”

Being a social media influencer, Samantha Busch is always exploring new ventures. So it’s no surprise that Kyle Busch‘s wife runs a merchandise website herself – the Samantha Busch Shop. She sells all sorts of goodies themed on the racetrack, like apparel for top and bottom, bags and purses, jewelry, and so much more. Samantha is also quite fond of shopping herself. Soon after coming back from an Italian vacation in August, she went straight to the market. Shopping for a diverse range of mushrooms, she wanted to cook healthy pasta based on authentic Italian recipes.

Despite Kyle Busch’s shopping discord with his wife, the couple share the sweetest story of how they met each other.

Well, Kyle Busch’s love life had kicked off over 15 years ago. Yet whenever we go back to that story, its adorable aspects never fail to amaze us. In 2007, Samantha Busch was pursuing a degree in psychology at Purdue University and also dabbling in modeling stints. She was sent to her first race in Indianapolis by the promotional model agency she worked for while in college. “16 years ago… the promo model agency I worked for sent me down to Indianapolis to work for Chevy getting people hyped up for the races,” Samantha shared in 2023.

Incidentally, Chevy driver Busch was also at the venue, and could not help but fall in love with his future sweetheart. Samantha continued that the racing ambiance felt very new to her: “I was going into my senior year of college at Purdue at the time, a sorority girl and no big surprise not the sportiest of types. So I can honestly say it was my first time at a race track!” However, Kyle Busch made her feel right at home. After finishing work in the blazing hot sun, she got an offer from a woman. Apparently, Busch had asked the latter to approach Samantha about an air-conditioned car ride. Samantha subsequently asked him to hang out, calling him ‘Mr. Shy.’ The rest, as we know, was history – the couple got married in 2010.
