In April, Wallace and Amanda announced they were expecting their first child. While appearing on the Dale Jr. Download podcast in August, Wallace spoke to Dale Earnhardt Jr. about his emotions as fatherhood was approaching.

“I’ve been super calm, cool and collected about it. Amanda, she’s been going through the ups and downs and just the excitement of motherhood for her, feeling the baby kick,” Wallace said. “She loves it. She thinks it’s the coolest thing ever. We’re five weeks out, and it’s crazy to think so she’s starting to feel some pain and some pressure in certain areas. Now she’s worried like, ‘Oh my god if I do one wrong move is the baby coming now?’ She’s overthinking everything.
