A native of
Kernersville, North Carolina, Harvick has been around auto racing for practically all her life. Her first visit to a race track came at three weeks old. She is the daughter of former
Busch Series driver
John Linville and Joyce Linville and grew up around garages and race tracks. After high school she earned a college degree from the
University of North Carolina-Greensboro. DeLana and Kevin were married on February 28, 2001, in
Las Vegas, Nevada, shortly after Harvick made his Cup debut. Unlike many NASCAR wives, she can often be seen during a race on top of the pit box wearing a custom-made
fire-suit. The couple have sold their home in Kernersville, North Carolina, and moved to Charlotte with their son, Keelan Paul Harvick (born July 8, 2012), their daughter, Piper Grace Harvick (born December 28, 2017), three dogs, and two cats. ==Kevin Harvick Foundation==
