Greg Biffle, a notable NASCAR driver, has not formally retired but has largely stepped away from racing to spend time with his family. His appearances on the track have been sporadic, often supported by his wife, Cristina Biffle (née Grossu), who is usually present in the stands.
In his semi-retirement, Greg has enjoyed significant time with Cristina, whom he married in 2022. Although they have made public appearances, much of their time is spent privately, often on beach vacations shared via social media.
Cristina is Greg’s second wife. He was previously married to Nicole Lunders from 2007 to 2016, and they have a daughter, Elizabeth, born in 2011. Greg and Cristina began their relationship shortly after his separation from Nicole and became engaged during a 2021 trip to the Bahamas.
A plane owned by Greg crashed while attempting to land at a North Carolina airport on Thursday, December 18. A family friend disclosed that Greg, Cristina, their son Ryder, and daughter Emma were on board.
“Regrettably, I confirm Greg Biffle, his wife Cristina, daughter Emma, and son Ryder were on that plane… as they were heading to spend the afternoon with us,” Garrett Mitchell shared on Facebook. “We are heartbroken. I’m sorry to share this.”
