In a bold and emotional statement that’s making waves across the racing community and beyond, Katrina Rouse Bloomquist — widow of legendary dirt late model racer Scott Bloomquist — has firmly addressed recent criticism regarding how she chooses to spend her money. Facing a flurry of online accusations and speculation, Katrina didn’t hold back, declaring that her life, finances, and choices are her own and should be respected as such.
“Let me make this very clear,” Katrina said in a candid video posted to her social media accounts. “How I spend my money is nobody’s business but mine. I’ve worked hard, I’ve supported my husband through every chapter of his career, and I’m doing my best to move forward with dignity. People need to stop acting like they know what goes on behind closed doors.”
Her statement comes just months after the tragic passing of Scott Bloomquist, a motorsports icon whose name became synonymous with dominance on the dirt track. Since his death, Katrina has remained in the public eye, both as the keeper of his legacy and an individual trying to navigate grief, business matters, and public scrutiny.
However, as is common in the age of social media, some critics have recently taken aim at her for what they perceive as lavish spending or public appearances that don’t align with their expectations of a grieving widow. From travel photos to new ventures, every move Katrina makes seems to be met with unwarranted judgment.
“I’m not here to live under anyone’s microscope,” she continued. “People love to say what they would do in someone else’s shoes, but the truth is, until you’ve walked through the heartbreak I’ve lived with, you don’t get to judge how I heal, how I grow, or how I choose to live.”
Supporters flooded the comments with messages of encouragement, praising Katrina for speaking out and standing tall in the face of online negativity. “You owe no one an explanation,” one follower wrote. “Scott would be proud of your strength.” Others highlighted how women, especially those connected to public figures, are often unfairly targeted and held to impossible standards after loss.
Katrina also addressed the work she’s doing to preserve Scott’s legacy, including efforts to create a memorial foundation in his name and possible plans to launch a documentary project. “I’m doing things that matter to me — things that honor Scott, things that give me purpose. And yes, I’m going to live my life. That’s what he would’ve wanted.”
In a world quick to judge and slow to understand, Katrina Rouse Bloomquist’s message is one of empowerment, resilience, and autonomy. She closed her statement with a final reminder: “I’m not here to be anyone’s idea of ‘perfect.’ I’m here to be real, to heal, and to live — on my terms.”
For those who knew Scott Bloomquist and admired his defiant spirit, it seems Katrina is carrying that same fire forward — unapologetically.
