NASCAR Cup Series race-winner Justin Haley and his wife, Haley, are expecting their first child together in January 2026, the couple announced via social media on Thursday.
The couple shared the news via Instagram, with a video captioned: “We’ve been keeping a secret!” The video shows Justin on a golf course, putting a ball into the hole with a sign that says ‘Baby Haley’, ‘Tee Time’, ‘Jan 2026’.
The 26-year-old driver currently competes on a full-time basis at NASCAR’s top level for Spire Motorsports, where he drives the organization’s flagship car, the No. 7 Chevrolet.
Justin and Haley Haley (formerly Mottinger) officially tied the knot on November 17, 2023, and now the couple is expecting their first child together, which they revealed in the post was a baby girl.
Haley is a winner in the NASCAR Cup Series, capturing a rain-shortened victory in the 2019 Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway, the first (and only) victory for Spire Motorsports to date.
This year, returning to Spire Motorsports after spending multiple seasons behind the wheel of a Kaulig Racing entry in the NASCAR Cup Series, and one season with Rick Ware Racing, Haley has recorded a single top-10 result (at Homestead-Miami Speedway) driving the No. 7 Chevrolet.
Entering this weekend’s regular-season finale at Daytona International Speedway, Haley sits 30th in NASCAR Cup Series point standings, and in order to qualify for the series’ annual post-season, will need to pull off a victory in Saturday’s event.
At this time, it is unknown what Haley’s plans will consist of for the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series campaign, but with the couple’s first child due in January, Haley should not miss any time in the seat.
Congratulations to Justin and Haley Haley!
