The 21-year-old firefighter remains in hospital after the crash.
The Food Network star has mentioned her nephew Caleb on her blog when she congratulated him on his high school graduation in 2018.
Caleb was involved in a collision with his uncle Ladd Drummond, while battling a fire on the family’s Oklahoma ranch on March 10, 2021, at 1.45pm.
First responders said the crash happened when Ladd who was traveling northbound and Caleb who was driving southbound had no visibility due to high winds.
Law enforcement said the hard impact ejected Ree’s nephew 70 feet from the truck and he continues to be treated at the hospital.
Ree’s husband Ladd, 52, does not have any reported injuries and “refused” medical attention on the scene.

Caleb, 21, suffered injuries to his head, internal torso, arm and leg.
He remains in critical condition at St. John Medical Center in Tulsa.
