Lewis Hamilton confirmed his relationship with Kim Kardashian via a Tokyo drift video on Instagram – making it the most romantic hard launch of the season. The whole story.
The rumors about Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton have been confirmed. The Formula 1 driver posted a video on Instagram on April 6th in which he made the relationship public.
After the two were spotted together at the Super Bowl in February, speculation began circulating online that they might be a couple. Fans of the reality star were amused by videos of the two standing close together while Kendall Jenner stood behind them and looked at the field. Jenner has been close friends with the Formula 1 driver for around ten years and is also rumored to have dated him – a relationship that was never publicly confirmed.
Tokyo drift with passenger
Now Hamilton has apparently decided on the best-known representative of the Kardashian clan. He released a reel of a high-speed drive in his Ferrari F40 at the Daikoku Parking Area in Tokyo – titled “HERE WE GO AGAIN 🇯🇵 TOKYO DRIFT VOL. III” and set to the song “Victory Lap” by Skepta, PlaqueboyMax and Fred again.
It’s not just the F1 driver drifting in the video. At the end, the camera shows Kim Kardashian in the passenger seat. After the ride, the camera captures her shouting “That’s crazy.”
Vacation together in March
As early as March 2025, a source reported to “People Magazine” that the reality queen and the Formula 1 title king had been spotted together in Tokyo. Kardashian’s children Saint, Chicago and Psalm from her marriage to rapper Kanye West were also there.
Kim Kardashian is said to be very in love with the racing driver. “They’re both very busy at work, but they see each other as often as possible. It’s more than just a casual acquaintance. It takes a lot to pique Kim’s interest, and she’s definitely intrigued,” an insider told People.
A friendship with a long history
It was clear early on that there could be more than just a friendship between the two stars when Hamilton left a flirty comment on one of the influencer’s Instagram posts. However, the two didn’t really rush into the relationship. Their friendship goes back a few years. At that time, Kim Kardashian was still in a relationship with Kanye West and Lewis Hamilton was still in a relationship with Nicole Scherzinger.
Since the two were said to have spent a romantic weekend at the Cotswold Members Club at the beginning of the year, according to insiders, it is no longer purely platonic.
Fans and family react enthusiastically
In any case, the stars’ fans are thrilled. Comments under the post range from “The most surprising ending so far” and “The best Hamilton post of the year” to “This is the coolest hard launch”.
The Kardashian family is also said to have given their blessing – after all, reality matriarch Kris Jenner has also known the F1 driver for a long time.
