E! News said Hinchcliffe and Dalton were high school sweethearts. The couple reconnected in 2016 after Hinchcliffe was involved in a car crash during a race in Indianapolis.

Hinchcliffe competed in Dancing with the Stars Season 23. He was paired with professional dancer Sharna Burgess, and finished in second place to Olympic gymnast Laurie Hernandez.
