Danica, Stenhouse Jr.'s 15 best moments as couple
Danica Patrick and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. were adorable and charming, and they were a true NASCAR couple, competing against each other every weekend.
But after nearly five years together, the couple called it quits, the Associated Press' Jenna Fryer reported Monday. This comes just weeks after Stenhouse went stag to the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Awards in November.
Most people's jobs don't require them to compete against their significant other for 36 weekends of the year, but Patrick and Stenhouse made it work. Even when Stenhouse got his first - and second - Cup Series win this season, Patrick graciously celebrated with him in Victory Lane.
They shared some of their best moments as a couple with their millions of followers on social media, so here are the 15 best.
