Kim Kardashian, Lewis Hamilton spark dating rumours after secret rendezvous in UK

Kim Kardashian and F1 champion Lewis Hamilton are reportedly dating and recently spent a private, romantic weekend together in the United Kingdom, according to the report.

The Skims founder, 45, and the 41-year-old racing driver have been photographed together on several occasions over the past decade, but this marks the first time they have been linked romantically. 

The Sun reported that Kardashian travelled from Los Angeles to the UK on Saturday via private jet before meeting Hamilton at Estelle Manor, a luxury hotel and country club in the Cotswolds.

Citing sources, the report claimed the pair enjoyed a “very romantic” weekend, accompanied discreetly by security personnel to maintain their privacy. Insiders alleged that Kardashian and Hamilton shared a room and were granted exclusive access to the hotel’s pool and spa facilities.

“They had a couple’s massage booked and had full use of the facilities just for themselves,” as per reports. “In the evening, they dined in a private room so they were not disturbed by other guests.”

The couple reportedly checked out of the hotel by 11 am on Sunday and departed together in two vehicles that had earlier collected Kardashian from the airport. An onlooker said that while the pair made efforts not to be seen together—with Hamilton using the main entrance and Kardashian leaving via a side exit—the reality star stood out due to her eight suitcases and a large Hermès Birkin bag.

“They left together with their bodyguards and drove off,” the onlooker added.

Representatives for both Kardashian and Hamilton did not respond to requests for comment.

The pair were also said to have attended Kate Hudson’s New Year’s Eve party in Aspen, Colorado, although they were not photographed together at the event. Kardashian reportedly wore a glittering sheer black outfit, while Hamilton opted for an all-brown ensemble.

Kardashian and Hamilton have known each other since at least 2014, when they were photographed together alongside their then-partners, Kanye West and Nicole Scherzinger. Hamilton dated Scherzinger from 2007 to 2015 and has since been linked to several high-profile celebrities, including Rihanna, Shakira and Sofía Vergara.

Kardashian finalised her divorce from West in 2022 and was most recently linked to NFL player Odell Beckham Jr., with reports suggesting their relationship ended in April 2024.

Hamilton, who has previously spoken of his friendship with West, once recalled advice the rapper gave him about pursuing passions beyond his primary career. Hamilton reportedly said West encouraged him to follow his creative interests regardless of public opinion.
