Lewis Hamilton and Kim Kardashian Confirm Romance

Published 10 April 2026

Lewis Hamilton and reality television star Kim Kardashian have confirmed their romantic relationship through a high-energy Instagram video posted by the Formula One driver on Monday, showcasing the couple cruising Tokyo's streets in a red Ferrari F40. The reel, filmed during Hamilton's visit for the Japanese Grand Prix, captures him performing donuts at the popular Daikoku Parking Area, with Kardashian visible in the passenger seat at the end, smiling and exclaiming, "That's insane," as tire smoke clears.

The pair, who have known each other for over a decade through mutual social circles, transitioned from friendship to romance earlier this year. They were first linked romantically around New Year's Eve after attending a party hosted by Kate Hudson in Aspen, Colorado. Subsequent sightings included a joint arrival at a Paris hotel in January and a weekend getaway at Estle Manor in England's Cotswolds in early February. Their relationship gained public attention at Super Bowl LX on February 8 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, where they sat together in a VIP box, holding hands amid widespread media coverage.
