Who is Danica Patrick's new boyfriend Carter Comstock?
“I just always imagined how great it would be to find someone to sit on the couch and talk with for hours, and that’s just what we do," Patrick told Lindsay, detailing how comfortable and happy she is in her relationship with her new entrepreneur boyfriend. Here are some quick facts about him.
Comstock is the founder of 'Freshly', the meal prep service. He built this business from the ground up with co-founder Michael Wystrach. The subscription service delivers fully cooked meals - fresh, never frozen - straight to the customer's door. According to the business's website, "Our team of nutrition experts makes sure our easy meals include no artificial sugars, no processed ingredients and more of the nutrients while still tasting great."
Comstock's need to start Freshly also seems to have stemmed from his passion for health and fitness. According to his LinkedIn page, "Carter discovered his enthusiasm for health and wellness early in life while watching his father Dr Frank Comstock, MD, help people work to achieve optimal health. By staying on top of the latest healthy lifestyle trends, he and his team of chefs, food scientists, and wellness experts bring nutritious meals to thousands of homes every day."
Comstock also believes in giving back to society. He and Wystrach through their business partnered with Nestlé in March 2020 to do their bit for the community as the world was in the throes of a raging pandemic. Together they helped contribute $500,000 to Meals on Wheels in March 2020 to ensure that people in need had access to nutritious food.

Alongside Freshly, Comstock is also an investor in Beam, a promising wellness brand that specializes in CBD products sans the THC. Patrick too is listed as an investor in the business alongside other renowned athletes including Kevin Hayes, Brooks Laich and Baker Mayfield's family's private equity firm Camwood Capital.
Patrick and Comstock became Instagram official a week ago. The former racer shared two photographs of herself on herself - first one was a selfie with the ocean in the background and for the second photo, she captured Comstock planting a kiss on her temple while she smiled. "Beach workouts are fun for one, but better with you," her caption read.
Danica Patrick and Aaron Rodgers
Prior to her relationship with Comstock, Patrick famously dated Aaron Rodgers for two years. In February, news broke that the Green Bay Packers quarterback had gotten engaged to “Big Little Lies” star Shailene Woodley.
Over the course of Patrick and Rodgers' two-year relationship, the couple documented their vacations and date nights together. In 2019, they even purchased a $28 million Malibu estate. By the summer of 2020, however, a rep for the former Indy Car driver revealed that the pair had called it quits.
