Helio Castroneves & Gal Pal Expecting

October 14, 2009


With his legal troubles behind him, Helio Castroneves is ready to start a family!

The racing champion — who also won the disco ball on season five of Dancing With the Stars — is expecting his first child — a daughter — with girlfriend Adriana Henao.

"We thought about calling her 'Indy,' but we thought that might be a little too much," Helio told IndyStar.com. Instead they've decided on the name Mikaella and she's due to arrive in January.

Helio and his lady love have not started making plans to marry, but he said it's "the natural next step."

Earlier this year the Brazil native was acquitted of tax evasion charges, avoiding up to 6 years in prison.

Whoa it is waaay cool that Hellio is dating an old lady - I heard it's true, more wrinkles = more fun! this is why that Jesus dude is with Madonna!
-- California Surfer

Maybe they can teach their little girl how to be a tax cheat just like Helio's parents taught him. Such a non-story.

I just can't understand anyone blaming Kate. Jon is a twelve year old... he has eight children that needed to be provided for... This program offered the family an opportunity to have a good life and an opportunity to buy eight pairs of shoes easily.. Kate is the adult in the family, realizing that it takes alot of funds to raise and educate eight children... Jon, with his two diamond studs, became a legend in his own mind, and forgot the real reason the show was all about...the children.. Kate was constantly having to remind him.
He has a 22 year old girlfriend... please.... quit blaming Kate for being the only one in this situation with a brain.

Whitney is making excuses for being too nice, and it is not possible she's a diva in disguise!
-- Jon

I'm excited for them. He seems very committed to her and his baby girl. No doubt she will be beautiful.

I am not impressed with the girl friend. Not cute - Helio you could do better.
-- Barney
