Amy and Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s love story kicked off in 2009. Amy, an interior designer, was hired to spruce up Dale’s North Carolina home. Sparks flew fast, and by 2015, they were engaged, and on New Year’s Eve 2016, they tied the knot. Now, as parents to two daughters, Isla and Nicole, their relationship is a mix of playful chemistry and rock-solid support.
Dale Earnhardt Jr., the NASCAR legend with a wild past, found his anchor in Amy, whose bold personality keeps him on his toes. Their dynamic? He’s the shy racer; she’s the fearless firecracker. Kenny Wallace, Dale’s buddy and a racing veteran himself, caught a standout moment from their new podcast, ‘Bless Your Hardt’ and couldn’t resist sharing it on Herm & Schrader with co-host Ken Schrader.
Dale Jr. has a bold wife
Launched in February 2025, Bless Your ‘Hardt’ on Dirty Mo Media is a raw, unscripted peek into their lives— marriage, parenting, and plenty of laughs. From Dale Jr.’s messy eating habits to the couple’s battle for the aux in the car, they discuss it all. But their latest discussion was one that Kenny Wallace found very entertaining. So much so, that he decided to ask Ken Schrader about his marriage life.
“Amy says… Dale Jr., sometimes he’ll be shy, sometimes not. Like, he’ll come up behind me while I’m in the kitchen, and he starts feeling me all up, jiggling my b—s, patting me on the b—t,” Wallace recounted, chuckling. “But if I go to feel him up, he turns beet red and don’t want nothing to do with it.” Ken Schrader’s face was one of shock. He did not expect their show to take such a drastic turn. Wallace sided with Dale Earnhardt Jr. while reflecting on his dynamic with his wife, Kim Wallace, saying, “But if she did that to me, I would say, Kim?”
Then Wallace posed the ultimate question to Schrader, “Does Ann [Schrader] ever feel you up?” Schrader, blushing while he spoke, quipped, “When I committed to this show, I wasn’t thinking that this was going to be the subject matter that we were going to be talking about,” before admitting, “Yeah, we’ve had that situation before. I’m okay with it,” he said with a grin on his face as Kenny Wallace burst into laughter.
Wallace went on to praise the Bless Your ‘Hardt’ podcast for such entertaining moments, crediting Amy Earnhardt by saying, “Bless Your Hardt is one of the best shows going right now… She [Amy Earnhardt] is ruthless, man. She’s a bada–“. Bless Your Hardt came into being after Amy Earnhardt’s multiple appearances on the Dale Jr. Download that revealed numerous hilarious stories between the two. Amy is no stranger to keeping it real. On The Dale Jr. Download, she’s dropped unfiltered gems before, like tales of Dale Jr.’s antics or their home life chaos. Dale Jr. has even praised her openness, saying in a 2025 episode, “Amy’s got no filter—she’ll say what’s on her mind, and it’s why people love her.”

However, pivot to family mode, and you see a deeper layer. Dale has confessed that Amy’s been his lifeline. Before her, he was a different guy who was racing hard, partying harder, living the bachelor life with video games and late nights. “I was a mess,” he admitted on The Dale Jr. Download in 2023. “Amy saved me—she brought balance, gave me purpose.” Meeting her flipped the script. She saw past the NASCAR fame, pushing him to grow up without dimming his spark. “She’s tough, but she’s my rock,” he said in a 2025 Bless Your ‘Hardt’ episode with gratitude.
Their podcast reflects that shift. Sure, Amy’s dishing spicy stories, but it’s also about their team effort—raising kids, juggling careers, and keeping it real. Dale Jr., once hesitant to open up, now thrives alongside her, trading shy blushes for hearty laughs. Amy’s fearless vibe doesn’t just shake up Dale, it’s contagious, even getting expert like Schrader to nod along with a grin.
At 61, Wallace sees the parallel in his marriage, but Amy and Dale’s version is uniquely theirs, raw, funny, and rooted in a bond that’s weathered plenty. From kitchen hijinks to heartfelt confessions, Bless Your ‘Hardt’ isn’t just a show but a window into how Amy’s unfiltered spirit is keeping Dale Jr. grounded and how he’s learned to lean into it. And Junior is all the better for it.
Dale Jr. and Amy Earnhardt still got that spark after 16 years
Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Amy Earnhardt have been together 16 years, and they’re still all about each other. On their new podcast, Amy let us in on a little something. This time, she talked about them holding hands. “Yeah, we hold hands a lot,” Dale said. Amy jumped in, “I like it—it’s sweet, sure, but it also keeps me from falling behind. He walks so fast!” It’s a simple thing.
They kept chatting on the podcast about gender reveal parties. Some folks think they’re silly or over-the-top, but not Dale and Amy. “I think they’re awesome,” Amy said. “Kids are awesome, and those moments? Super special.” Dale agreed, “Let people do what makes them happy.” They didn’t do a big party for Isla, just a pink post, but for Nicole, Dale surprised Amy with one, and she was all about it.
Holding hands isn’t just cute, it’s how they keep up with each other. After dating for seven years and being married almost ten, they’re still solid. They’re a team, handling life, kids, and even stuff like gender reveals their own way. For Dale Jr. and Amy, staying close is all they do because, at the end of the day, when the times get tough, they only look to each other for solace.
