It was an emotional season for Joe Gibbs Racing and 2019 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Busch.
On Thursday, Busch was officially honored as the Champion during the NASCAR Awards Ceremony and he delivered an impassioned speech, where he let everyone in on what was going on in the Busch house during the year.
Following his speech, Busch met with the media backstage, where he spoke about revealing that he and his wife Samantha encountered several failed IVF treatments in 2019.

IVF — or In vitro fetilisation — is a procedure where an egg and sperm are combined outside the body, in vitro. When couples are both carriers for a disease or have trouble becoming pregnant, IVF is often a valid option when wanting to become parents.
