Stewart-Haas Racing driver Josh Berry and his wife Ginny Berry announced on social media that they are expecting their second girl child.

Their first daughter, Mackenzie Berry, was born on January 7, 2020. Recently, the couple took to social media to announce that they are pregnant with another baby girl, who is expected to be born in October this year.

Josh and Ginny Berry have been together since 2012 and married six years later in 2018. The two can be seen during the NASCAR races. This is Berry's first season as a permanent Cup Series driver. Prior to this, he raced in Xfinity for two seasons permanently, but also took part in various races since the 2014 season.

Interestingly, before his career in motorsports became stable, Josh Berry worked as a bank teller. It wasn't until 2010 that Dale Earnhardt Jr. signed him to JR Motorsports 2010 for the late model racing series. The two met during an online sim racing event in 2008. The league was called the DMP Online Racing.

He won his first race that season at Martinsville and also finished second consecutively in Darlington and Dover. He also won at Las Vegas in 2021 and went on to win three races in 2022, taking part as a permanent driver.
