Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton are reportedly taking their friendship to the next level, sparking romance rumors that have fans buzzing. The Skims mogul and the Formula One superstar have known each other for over a decade, but it wasn't until recently that whispers of a love connection started making the rounds.
The duo was first seen together at the 2026 Super Bowl, where they were caught on camera enjoying each other's company. This public appearance came on the heels of a whirlwind European getaway, where they were spotted entering a Paris hotel together. A source later confirmed to People, "It was a romantic meetup."
“Kim and Lewis are spending more time together and seeing where things are going. They’ve been friends and known each other for years but are now exploring a romantic relationship,” shared an insider.
The timeline of their friendship goes back to September 2014 when they were seen together at the GQ Men Of The Year awards. At that time, both were in separate relationships – Kim with Kanye West and Lewis with Nicole Scherzinger. Their paths crossed again in March 2015 at a Paris fashion show and a Balmain dinner.
Lewis has been a familiar face in the Kardashian-Jenner circle, even spending Easter 2015 with the family. Kanye West once shared, "Lewis Hamilton’s over at my house, and we’re having an Easter brunch with all of the family."
Fast forward to 2026, and the dating rumors are flying high. In February, they took a trip to a luxury Cotswold hotel, Estelle Manor, and were seen arriving separately. By February 4, sources confirmed to Entertainment Tonight that Kim and Lewis "are now exploring a romantic relationship."
While the world watches closely, it's clear that Kim and Lewis are navigating this new chapter with intentionality. "This has been a fun and refreshing change for her," a source said about Kim, adding that she’s careful about who she lets into her life.
The pair's first public outing as a potential couple at the Super Bowl only adds to the speculation. Whether they're just testing the waters or diving into a full-fledged romance, one thing is for sure – this is one relationship that will keep everyone guessing.
