Dale Earnhardt lived his life pretty much on a fast track. A NASCAR Hall of Famer, he was one of the best when it came to motorsports. Other than that, he didn’t hold back on relationships, marrying three women in his life at different times; Latane Brown, Brenda Gee, then Teresa Houston, known as Teresa Earnhardt.

The third wife and widow of great motor racing driver and team owner, Teresa is also a businesswoman who ran Dale’s organization, Dale Earnhardt, Inc. (DEI). Since the death of her husband in 2002, her name has remained in the media for a family feud or yet another thing that involves the family.

Teresa Earnhardt – Biography

It was on October 29, 1958 that the Hickory, North Carolina native, Teresa Houston was born to Hal Houston and a mother who stayed away from the media as much as possible, Betty Houston. Hal was a businessman (furniture wholesaler) and outdoor enthusiast who also owned race cars.

A woman described as a high achiever since she was just a little girl, Teresa Earnhardt went to Bunker Hill High near Rockingham, North Carolina, where she graduated before continuing her studies in commercial art and in interior design. Pretty much, she was an athletic kid that one would have thought could have had a career in sports since she was on the varsity basketball team when she was at Bunker Hill.

Relationship with Dale Earnhardt

It’s no surprise that the relationship between Teresa and Dale began thanks to running as it was something that had been in her family. His uncle, Tommy Houston was a highly successful driver who has his name on the Busch Series all-time win list, on which he is ranked third. More so, his sons are also in the business.

The two met when Dale drove one of Hal’s cars at a time when he was still trying to make it in the business. Even though at the time, Dale had already been married twice, her romance was not something that was disputed by her family members as according to Hal, it was clear to him that Dale was devoted to his daughter.

By then, Dale Earnhardt had already divorced his first wife Latane Brown whom he married when he was just 17 in 1968. They were only together for two years before going their separate ways in 1970. One year later he got married a second time this time to Brenda Lorraine Gee who is the daughter of NASCAR automaker Robert Gee. The second marriage ended in divorce in 1979.

On November 14, 1982, he walked down the aisle with Teresa who became the third woman Earnhardt married, and also the last. Their union was blessed with a child Taylor Nicole Earnhardt. She was born to the couple in 1988. From her previous marriages, Dale also had children. In 1969, his first son Kerry Dale Earnhardt was born to him by his first wife. Kerry grew up to follow in her father’s footsteps by becoming a NASCAR driver. He also had two children from his second marriage, Kelley King Earnhardt and Ralph Dale Earnhardt Jr, born in 1972 and 1974 respectively.

Teresa Earnhardt remained more than just Earnhardt’s wife, she was also his business partner who oversaw Dale Earnhardt, Inc. until it closed for good in 2009 when she was acquitted in Chip Ganassi Racing. Years before, on February 18, 2001, Dale lost his life in a three-car crash during the Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway.

Net value

When it comes to her fortune, it’s pretty obvious that Teresa Earnhardt has accomplished a lot over the years as a businesswoman. She has an estimated net worth of US$50 million. She has made a fortune from the various businesses and investments she owns, as the owner of a NASCAR team.

She remarried?

Teresa and Earnhardt Sr. were married for nearly 2 decades before the tragic event that took the life of Earnhardt, who has been described as an icon in sports. Moving nearly two decades after his death, his widow has not remarried.

In fact, in the public domain, there is no information to suggest that she has had any form of relationship or to suggest that she has dated anyone in the past since losing her husband.
