Kim Kardashian And Lewis Hamilton Spark Romance Rumors

Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton, two of the world’s most recognizable celebrities in their own spheres, have set the rumor mill ablaze after reports surfaced of a secret romantic weekend in the English countryside. According to The Sun, Daily Mail, and other outlets, the 45-year-old reality TV mogul and the 41-year-old Formula 1 champion spent an intimate 24 hours together at the luxurious Estelle Manor in the Cotswolds, marking the first time the pair have been romantically linked.

Sources told The Sun that Kardashian departed Los Angeles on Saturday, February 1, 2026, aboard her £100 million private jet, touching down at Oxford Airport in the afternoon. The journey from the airport to Estelle Manor—a Grade II-listed country club favored by A-listers—took just nine minutes by car. An hour after Kardashian’s arrival, Hamilton reportedly landed at the estate via helicopter from London’s Battersea Heliport, setting the stage for a weekend that was as private as it was lavish.

Security was tight throughout their stay. Kardashian was accompanied by two bodyguards, while Hamilton had his own close protection officer. Yet, as Daily Mail noted, the security teams kept a low profile to ensure the couple’s privacy. The duo reportedly shared a suite in the main part of the house, which costs upwards of £1,000 per night, and had exclusive access to the property’s spa and pool. Insiders described the atmosphere as “very romantic,” with the couple booking a couple’s massage and enjoying a private dinner away from other guests. The estimated total cost for the room, spa, and other amenities could have reached £120,000, according to Daily Mail.

Neither Kardashian nor Hamilton posted anything about their rendezvous on social media, a move that only fueled speculation about the seriousness of their relationship. An onlooker told The Sun that while Hamilton left through the front entrance, Kardashian was discreetly ushered out a side exit. “She stood out due to her eight suitcases and enormous Hermès Birkin bag,” the witness said. The pair checked out by 11 a.m. on Sunday, February 2, 2026, departing together in the same two cars that had ferried Kardashian from the airport. Later that day, Kardashian was spotted making a surprise visit to Selfridge’s in London, adding another layer of intrigue to her whirlwind trip.

The secretive weekend comes after years of friendly interactions between the two stars. Both attended Kate Hudson’s New Year’s Eve party in Aspen, Colorado, just a month earlier, though they were not photographed together at the event. Kardashian dazzled in a glittery sheer outfit, while Hamilton sported an all-brown ensemble. Their paths have crossed on several occasions, including the 2021 Wall Street Journal Innovator Awards, where Hamilton posted a backstage photo with Kardashian, calling it “such an honour to be recognised amongst a group of such remarkable talent.”

Their shared history extends even further back. In 2014, Kardashian and Hamilton were pictured together at the GQ Men of the Year Awards in London, each accompanied by their then-partners—Kanye West and Nicole Scherzinger, respectively. Hamilton has long been friendly with Kardashian’s family, with her mother Kris Jenner seen cheering him on at the Monaco Grand Prix and her sister Kendall Jenner counted among his friends. In 2015, Hamilton spent Easter with the Kardashian-West family, an occasion that Kanye West himself described with enthusiasm. “Lewis Hamilton’s over at my house and we’re playing some music in my studio. We’re having an Easter brunch and all of the family’s there, my wife’s family, my friends, everything. And everybody’s like, ‘What is this music?’ And I’m like, ‘It’s Lewis Hamilton’s music.’ They’re like, ‘Oh my God. It’s really good.’”

The bond between Hamilton and West appears to have been more than just social. Hamilton once shared with City AM the advice West gave him: “Kanye said to me: ‘I’m big in the music world but I’m trying to do what I love in fashion and people don’t like it. You’re big in your racing world but you love your music, and people will probably struggle to accept that. You need to do what you love and not give a f—k about what anyone thinks.’” Hamilton added, “Ultimately we shouldn’t feel like we need to shrink ourselves for other people to feel comfortable. Kanye’s outspoken, to say the least. I love that. He’s electrifying in everything he does. I wish I could be that outspoken, I really do. But I’m signed to brands that have an idealistic image they wish to be connected with, so I need to be careful.”

Both Kardashian and Hamilton have high-profile romantic histories. Kardashian, who finalized her divorce from Kanye West in 2022, shares four children—North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm—with the rapper. She has also dated SNL alum Pete Davidson and NFL star Odell Beckham Jr., the latter relationship reportedly ending in April 2024. Hamilton, meanwhile, is no stranger to celebrity romances, having famously dated Nicole Scherzinger on and off from 2007 to 2015, and more recently being linked to model Ashley Moore and singer Raye. He’s also been rumored to have connections with the likes of Rihanna, Shakira, and Sofia Vergara.

Despite Kardashian’s public insistence in September 2025 that she was “not looking for anyone new,” telling The Tonight Show’s Jimmy Fallon, “I haven’t had time, I’m studying. And when I’m done I will open myself up. And so . . . I opened myself up but I haven’t found anyone,” she later teased a secret new boyfriend on Hulu’s The Kardashians. “I had the intention of staying single. I was fully lying to you guys,” she admitted in a confessional. “Me not dating and not wanting love and attention? I don’t think you know me.”

As for Hamilton, the British racing superstar is currently driving for Ferrari and continues to set records on the Formula 1 circuit. While both he and Kardashian have managed to keep their romantic lives largely private in recent months, their discreet Cotswolds getaway has thrust them back into the spotlight. Representatives for both stars have so far declined to comment on the reports.

Whether this secret weekend marks the beginning of a lasting romance or is simply a fleeting chapter in two very public lives, one thing is certain: Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton know how to keep the world guessing—and watching their every move.
