Danica Patrick's husband is now in the past as the American racing-model stunner's request for a divorce has already been granted last 2013.
According to New York Daily News, Danica Patrick's husband, Paul Edward Hospenthal, who is apparently the racer-model's physical therapist, was officially divorced from Patrick last April 17, 2013.

"I am sad to inform my fans that after 7 years, Paul and I have decided to amicably end our marriage," Danica posted November 20. "This isn't easy for either of us, but mutually it has come to this. He has been an important person and friend in my life, and that's how we will remain moving forward."
Danica Patrick's husband met the racer way back in 2002 after she suffered from a yoga injury. Reports claim the racer frequently visited Hospenthal's office until the formally revealed that they were dating.
