Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton spent New Year’s Eve together before it was reported they’d enjoyed a date in the English countryside. The pair partied together at Kate Hudson’s VIP bash in Aspen, Colorado, in December as they kept their budding romance a secret.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star and the Formula 1 driver were pictured leaving Matsuhisa restaurant separately before heading to the party. Kim dressed for the occasion in a sparkly black dress, while Lewis looked smart in a grey jacket with baggy jeans and boots.
Over the weekend, it was claimed that Kim and Lewis, who have been friends for years, had dinner and a couple’s massage together at Estelle Manor, surrounded by their respective bodyguards.
Kim flew in from Los Angeles on her £100m private jet to meet Lewis, who arrived an hour later in a helicopter, chartered from London’s Battersea Heliport.
“It all appeared to be very romantic. Kim and Lewis made use of all the facilities on offer,” a source told The Sun . “She had two bodyguards with her, and Lewis had a close protection officer, but they remained in the background.”
They added that two of the three guards stood by the door “so no one could disturb them”. Meanwhile, an onlooker said Kim’s arrival was “very low-key,” with the couple sharing a room in the main part of the house and having exclusive use of the spa.
Another said that others at Estelle Manor “couldn’t miss” Kim, who had eight suitcases labelled with her name. The Mirror has reached out to Kim’s representative for comment.
The pair met years ago and were pictured with their then-partners – Kanye West and Nicole Scherzinger – at GQ’s 2014 Men of the Year Awards. Kim’s ex-husband Kanye even invited Lewis to spend Easter with their family, saying at the time: “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.'”
In 2021, following Kim and Kanye’s split, she and Lewis appeared in a picture together after they were both handed awards at the Wall Street Journal’s innovator awards. Lewis was recognised in sport, whilst Kim was celebrated for her shapewear and lingerie brand, Skims. Posting a photo of them backstage, Lewis wrote: “It’s such an honour to be recognised amongst a group of such remarkable talent.”
Their bond goes all the way back to 2014, when Kim first bumped into Lewis at an event. The Formula 1 champion was already on good terms with Kim’s sister, Kendall Jenner. In 2024, Lewis even took Kendall for a lap at the Miami Grand Prix. Their mum Kris Jenner also got to know Lewis in the pits at the Monaco Grand Prix back in 2019.
