George Russell pokes fun at Lewis Hamilton’s romance rumors
George Russell playfully engaged with fellow driver Lewis Hamilton during a recent Formula One pre-season photoshoot, inquiring about Hamilton’s rumored romance with reality star Kim Kardashian, reports BritPanorama.
In a clip shared on the Mercedes X account, Russell approached Hamilton, teasingly asking, “All loved up, or, what’s the latest?” Hamilton, however, opted not to divulge any details, responding with a grin and redirecting the conversation to his photo positioning.
The 41-year-old, a seven-time world champion, appears intent on keeping details of his personal life private. Rumors about his relationship with Kardashian, 45, began circulating in late January after the two were seen arriving together at Estelle Manor in the Cotswolds, reportedly in a motorcade.
The speculation escalated when they were spotted at Super Bowl LVII on February 8, where they watched the Seattle Seahawks win. Despite the public interest, neither party has officially addressed the nature of their relationship. During a press event, Hamilton firmly dismissed questions regarding Kardashian, declaring, “It’s my private life, I’m not talking about that.”
Similarly cautious, Kardashian has not publicly confirmed the relationship, leading to ongoing intrigue among fans. The pair, who have known each other for several years, have kept their new chapter discreet but are major subjects of media discussion.
In addition to their recent outings, Hamilton’s connection with Kardashian dates back to when she was married to Kanye West, with the two couples previously interacting at various events. As friends, they share a history, amplified by Hamilton’s ties to Kim’s sister Kendall Jenner and their family’s past interactions during public appearances.
In a sporting world where personal lives often intertwine with professional narratives, Hamilton and Kardashian manage to exemplify the delicate balance between public interest and personal privacy, leaving fans in suspense about their evolving relationship.
In the end, as the F1 season looms, the tension between fame and private matters adds an extra layer to Hamilton’s return to the grid — a reminder of how celebrity and competition endlessly intertwine.
