The offspring of Hollywood hunk dad Mark Wahlberg, his equestrian daughter, Grace Wahlberg is a thriving equestrian. Undergoing formal training at Hunter’s Edge, she has been on an upward journey in the sport. At just 13 years old, Grace is not only an accomplished equestrian but also an avid fan of the high-octane, high-speed world of Formula 1.

And the equestrian prodigy is particularly obsessed with one of McLaren’s most revered and talented British star. In a recent heartfelt gesture with an equestrian twist, she even gave him a special shout-out and also sported a unique sartorial emblazonment involving the young F1 wunderkind.

On Instagram, Mark Wahlberg’s daughter, Grace Wahlberg, posted a picture with the boy of her dreams, her horse, Cruise Quality. Beaming from ear to ear, she stared lovingly at Cruise Quality, who posed gallantly and regally for the camera. But what truly was the cynosure of all eyes was the black sweatshirt she sported. Embellished with the bold print 4 Lando Norris” and an F1 car in orange, white, and black, this was no ordinary fan gear but a signed edition from the 24-year-old British racing star, Lando Norris.

Further displaying her obsession for Norris, Grace captioned the image, “Just 2 Lando fans,” referring to herself and Cruise. This endearing shot out to the 2015 MSA Formula 1 champion Norris Lando is also not the first time she has displayed her fan love for him.
