Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time Formula 1 world champion, and reality star Kim Kardashian have stirred dating rumors after being seen together in Paris. The pair arrived at a Paris hotel on Monday afternoon, exiting the same SUV alongside their teams, which has sparked widespread curiosity about their relationship status.
Reports indicate that the two traveled from the United Kingdom to Paris on a private jet, following a private trip in Europe. Sources suggest that their getaway began with a discreet weekend in the English countryside, hinting at a more personal connection.
Private Weekend Escape in the Cotswolds
According to insiders, Hamilton and Kardashian stayed at Estelle Manor, a luxury hotel and exclusive members’ club in the Cotswolds. The visit was reportedly kept low profile, with access to private amenities like the spa and pool. The couple is said to have enjoyed a couples’ massage during their stay, which adds to the impression that their time together was romantic rather than casual.
An insider later told PEOPLE magazine that this meeting was indeed romantic, marking a first public indication that their relationship could be more than just friendship.
History of Occasional Encounters at High-Profile Events
The two celebrities have known each other for several years and often cross paths at notable occasions. For example, Kardashian greeted Hamilton warmly at a 2024 event, and both attended the 2021 WSJ Magazine Innovator Awards. Additionally, they were present together at Pharrell Williams’ Louis Vuitton menswear debut in Paris in 2023.
Most recently, the pair appeared at Kate Hudson’s New Year’s Eve party in Aspen. Although there were no photos of them together at the party, fans noticed overlapping social media posts, which further fueled rumors about their closeness.
Relationship Backgrounds and New Priorities
Before these recent sightings, Kim Kardashian had been linked with NFL player Odell Beckham Jr., while rumors had connected Lewis Hamilton with actress Sofia Vergara. On her sister Khloé Kardashian’s podcast, Kim revealed that she now looks for
good morals, accountability, and calm energy
in her relationships, indicating a more thoughtful approach moving forward.
Neither Hamilton nor Kardashian has made any public statements about the rumors. However, their joint appearance in Paris has intensified public interest, leaving many anticipating whether their connection will evolve into a confirmed relationship.
