NASCAR Cup Series star Bubba Wallace has confirmed the birth of his second child ahead of Sunday's race at Darlington Speedway.
Wallace and his wife, Amanda, first became parents in 2024, when they welcomed a son, Becks Hayden, into the world on September 29 that year.
More exciting news for the Wallace family then came last year, with the couple revealing that they were expecting once again in 2026.

Bubba Wallace won't miss race
The arrival of his first daughter outside of a race weekend means that Wallace will no longer miss a race this season to be there for the birth.
Wallace was not present when his son, Becks, was born, but vowed ahead of the 2026 season that he would not miss it this time around.
With that in mind, 23XI Racing had begun putting plans in place for Wallace to miss a race, with multiple options depending on when the moment came.
However, with Cameron having been born on Thursday, Wallace is racing as usual at Darlington this weekend, and the above no longer applies.
The driver of the No. 23 Toyota starts second for Sunday's Goodyear 400, and what a race it would be to take the victory following the birth of his daughter.
