Samantha Busch has made multiple public statements in the weeks after her husband, two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Busch, died at age 41. NBC News reports she tells supporters in her first post-death statement that the family does not feel alone, citing “prayers, messages, flowers, meals, hugs, and countless acts of kindness” that have helped them through the hardest days. Other outlets describe her expressing gratitude to fans and acknowledging the pain and support she and their family have received. Several reports include that Busch and Kyle shared two young children, Brexton and Lennix, and that she plans to continue supporting their goals. The New York Post and Times of India also report that Samantha told Kyle on his deathbed she would do everything she could to help their children pursue their dreams. Coverage also references the cause of death: Kyle Busch died May 21 after an illness that progressed from pneumonia into sepsis, as stated by multiple outlets. Separately, Times of India says court documents filed after his death indicate Samantha inherits his personal property and that no wrongful death claim is being pursued, with an attorney listed as executor.
