📣 HEADLINE: Scott Baio’s Daughter Bailey Joins Providence Friars Golf Team in Proud Family Moment
In a heartwarming display of family pride, actor Scott Baio—best known for his role as Chachi on Happy Days—shared that his daughter, Bailey DeLuca Baio, has officially committed to play Division I golf for Providence College in the Big East Conference.
Baio posted the news on social media alongside a photo of Bailey smiling next to a “Welcome to Friartown” sign, writing:
“Proud dad moment. Division 1 in The Big East Conference.”
Bailey, 17, took to Instagram to share her gratitude:
> “This has been years in the making… thank you to my amazing parents, to God, and to all the coaches who helped me—especially my first one, my dad.”
The announcement quickly received praise from friends and fans alike, including congratulatory messages from Olympic figure skater Todd Eldredge and actress Kristy Swanson.
Bailey’s journey hasn’t been without challenges. Shortly after her birth, doctors feared she had a rare metabolic disorder. Thankfully, that diagnosis was later ruled out. In response, the Baio family launched a charity to support other children and families facing similar medical uncertainties.
Now, with her hard work paying off and her future ahead, Bailey’s story is a powerful reminder of perseverance, family support, and following your dreams.
