Lewis Hamilton, 41, and Kim Kardashian, 45, made their relationship public and visible on social media. This Thursday, July 16, 2026, the renowned Formula 1 driver shared a series of photos and videos that show the couple’s intimacy and their coexistence with the businesswoman’s children. Hamilton’s initiative reinforces the rumors that have been circulating for months about the romance.
The images, published on Instagram, reveal a carousel of moments that include Kim Kardashian alongside Hamilton and some of her children. Present were Saint West, 10 years old, Chicago West, 6, and Psalm West, 5, the result of the socialite’s previous relationship with Kanye West. In the caption, the pilot expressed a feeling of affection: “Hug those you love.”
Records in paradisiacal settings show the couple’s routine
Among the clicks shared by Lewis Hamilton, moments in an idyllic setting stand out. The couple appeared embracing, accompanied by Chicago and Psalm, in paradisiacal landscapes. Other photos show the pair walking in sportswear and holding hands during a day of surfing. The pilot even included a fun video, where he and Kim threw themselves into the water from the deck of a boat.
The presence of Kim Kardashian’s children in publications suggests a level of seriousness in the relationship. The businesswoman’s only daughter with Kanye West who was not seen in the photos was 13-year-old North West.
Fan reaction and the contrast with Hamilton’s record
The official revelation of Lewis Hamilton’s relationship with Kim Kardashian generated a huge uproar among internet users. Many fans celebrated the driver’s happiness, while others pointed out the rarity of Hamilton exposing his love life. Comments like “If Lewis is happy, I’m happy” and “Wow, the relationship is serious. He hasn’t posted a photo with a girlfriend since Nicole” went viral.
The mention of Nicole Scherzinger refers to Hamilton’s best-known and longest-lasting relationship, between 2008 and 2015 with the former Pussycat Doll. The pilot’s discretion in relation to his romances has always been a striking characteristic, making the exposure with Kim Kardashian a significant milestone in his personal life and a reason for fans to believe in the intensity of the new relationship.
How the first rumors of the relationship between the pilot and the businesswoman emerged
Rumors about a possible romance between Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton began circulating in February 2026. At the time, the two were photographed arriving together at the same hotel during the businesswoman’s visit to Europe. These first records began speculation that would be confirmed months later.
Public appearances at high-profile events helped fuel speculation. The couple made their first official appearance together days after the initial clicks, attending the Super Bowl. In April, they were again spotted enjoying the Coachella festival, solidifying the perception that there was something more between them.
