British media outlets have recently suggested that Ferrari F1 driver Lewis Hamilton is dating Kim Kardashian. This speculation arose after the seven-time world champion completed the fastest unofficial time at the 2026 Formula 1 shakedown event in Barcelona last week and then spent the weekend at a luxury country house hotel in Oxfordshire, England.
According to reports, Hamilton chartered a helicopter to reach Estelle Manor, a Grade II-listed hotel and private club. It was there he reportedly met Kardashian, who had flown in from Los Angeles on Saturday. The couple is said to have enjoyed a romantic weekend getaway, including a private dinner with exclusive access to the venue’s spa and dining facilities. The room they shared could cost as much as $1,500 per night.
Attempts to reach representatives for both Hamilton and Kardashian for comment have so far been unsuccessful.
Background on Lewis Hamilton’s Connections with Kim Kardashian
This is the first time that rumors have suggested a romantic relationship between Hamilton and Kardashian. Historically, the F1 star has preferred to keep his personal life out of the spotlight, focusing on his racing career. As he pursues an unprecedented eighth drivers’ championship, Hamilton has avoided high-profile romances.
Nevertheless, his romantic relationships have occasionally attracted media attention. Earlier in 2025, he was linked to actress Sofia Vergara after they were spotted dining together on his birthday in New York. Hamilton’s most enduring public relationship was his on-again, off-again partnership with singer Nicole Scherzinger, which lasted from 2007 to 2015. Scherzinger was a familiar presence in the F1 paddock and was with Hamilton when he won his first championship with McLaren in 2008.
Hamilton and Scherzinger’s association with celebrity circles created connections with the Kardashian family. During that period, Hamilton and Scherzinger were photographed alongside Kim Kardashian and her ex-husband, rapper Kanye West. Hamilton reportedly developed a close friendship with the family, even spending Easter holidays at their home. Kris Jenner, Kim’s mother, was also seen attending the Monaco Grand Prix in 2018 to support Hamilton.
More recently, Hamilton and Kardashian both attended actress Kate Hudson’s New Year’s Eve party in Aspen, Colorado, though they left the event separately.
Possible Implications of the Rumored Relationship
If the dating rumors between Lewis Hamilton and Kim Kardashian prove true, it would mark a notable intersection of two high-profile public figures from very different worlds: Formula 1 racing and entertainment. Given Hamilton’s usually private nature regarding his romantic life and his ongoing dedication to his racing goals, this development could influence both his personal and professional dynamics moving forward.
The exclusivity of their weekend getaway and previous mutual social circles suggest the relationship, if genuine, has been discreet so far. Observers and fans will likely watch closely as further information emerges, potentially reshaping public perceptions of Hamilton’s off-track life during this pivotal stage of his career.
