Denny Hamlin‘s fiancée, Jordan Fish, recently shared a humorous meme that perfectly captures the chaotic nature of motherhood just days after the couple welcomed their newborn son, Jameson Drew Hamlin, on June 11, 2025. The meme, posted originally by the Instagram account @babyfeeding.coach, features a scene from the popular TV series The Office depicting the challenges of feeding a newborn while managing older siblings.
Jordan simply captioned her repost with one word: “Accurate,” reflecting her recognition of the hectic reality of caring for multiple children.

Fatherhood Insights from Denny Hamlin on Caring for Baby Jameson
On a recent episode of the Actions Detrimental podcast, Hamlin talked candidly about parenting experiences with his newborn and the tender bond his daughters have formed with their little brother. He described how their middle child, Molly, has been carrying baby Jameson around the family home, reminiscent of how she used to carry pretend baby dolls. Hamlin shared:
“I mean, just toting this thing all around the house and we’re kind of like, but we would know that she would sacrifice her body if she tripped before hurting that child.”

This highlights the protective instincts of his daughters as they adapt to their new family dynamic.
The Meaning Behind Jameson Drew Hamlin’s Name
Prior to a race at Pocono Raceway, Denny Hamlin explained the significance of their newborn’s name during an interview. He revealed the inspiration behind the choice of Jameson and Drew:
“The name, obviously I’m James, so that’s James’ son, Jameson. And Drew—we wanted to keep JD because, obviously, JD Gibbs is a big, big part of my getting here to the Cup Series. James Dean was the car owner I drove for in late models that got me the equipment to win all those races to get seen by JD. I’m JD, and so we’re just keeping it going.”

The name carries personal and professional significance, honoring key figures in Hamlin’s racing career and family heritage.
Denny Hamlin’s Response to Ty Dillon’s Post-Race Comments
The recent Quaker State 400 at EchoPark Speedway was notable for a massive crash that ended the race early for many drivers, including Denny Hamlin, who finished 31st. Ty Dillon, who finished eighth, was credited with ending Hamlin’s chances in the NASCAR In-Season Challenge. Following the race, Dillon posted on social media:
“To all you Denny fans out there, I just knocked your favorite driver out”
—Ty Dillon, NASCAR driver
This playful jab gained widespread attention and sparked reactions from fans and fellow drivers alike.
Hamlin addressed the situation during another episode of the Actions Detrimental podcast, expressing that he welcomed Dillon’s lighthearted approach. He explained that Dillon had reached out to him privately after the race with an apology and clarified that his comment was made in jest. Hamlin said:
“He (Ty Dillon) texted me, he was like, ‘Hey, I was just playing around.'” I’m like, “Bro, I loved it.” Like, if you people think that you are going to hurt my feelings by coming in my mentions and saying, “Haha, Ty Dillon beat you.” Like you’re never going to make fun of me more than I’m going to make fun of myself ever, ever. You’re not going to offend me; I have really, really, really thick skin”
—Denny Hamlin, NASCAR driver
This response showcases Hamlin’s confidence and good-natured attitude despite the setback at Atlanta.
