Lewis Hamilton Reacts but Stays Tight-Lipped Following Kim Kardashian Joke at Photo Shoot

Lewis Hamilton and Kim Kardashian‘s relationship has been a hot topic over the last few weeks. But that doesn’t mean the Formula 1 star is ready to talk about it. The two haven’t even confirmed that they are, in fact, a couple. Most people though assume that’s exactly what they were telling the world when they attended the biggest sporting event of the year.

Prior to their high-profile appearance together at Super Bowl LX, a source told US Weekly that Kardashian and Hamilton have been seeing each other, but at this point it’s not too serious, explaining that the longtime friends went on “a few dates recently” and things are “casual.” They added that Kim “has felt ready to put herself back out there recently.”

Marca noted that during a pre-season F1 photoshoot, fellow Formula One driver George Russell decided to joke with Hamilton about the Kardashian romance rumors while mic’d up and asked, “All loved up or what’s the latest?”

Hamilton only reacted with a grin but did not say anything and quickly diverted the conversation.

Days earlier, the seven-time F1 champ outright refused to discuss the SKIMS founder at all, telling a Sky Sports reporter, “It’s my private life, I’m not talking about that.”

Before Kardashian, Hamilton dated Nicole Scherzinger on and off from 2007 to 2015. The racing star was also linked to a number of other high-profile ladies over the years, including Gigi Hadid, Rita Ora, and Nicki Minaj.

Before Hamilton, Kim’s most high-profile relationships were with former running back Reggie Bush from 2007 to 2010, her brief union with former NBA player Kris Humphries, her six-year marriage to Kanye West, and her nine-month relationship with comedian Pete Davidson.
