Lewis Hamilton Allegedly Only Looking For An 'Extended Booty Call' With Kim Kardashian

Reality TV icon Kim Kardashian has been linked to several high-profile stars, including Reggie Bush, Kanye West, and Odell Beckham Jr. Most recently, the Hulu star was spotted cozying up to British Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton. After snaps of Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton were shared online, rumors regarding their alleged connection have swirled nonstop. A source recently spoke out regarding the pair's reported romance, explaining why Kim is reportedly head over heels for Hamilton. However, a fairy-tale ending may not be in the cards, as the source also revealed the two may want completely different things.

According to Star Magazine, a source shared that Kim's inner circle is worried the A-lister may get burned by Hamilton, whom they described as "one of the biggest players in entertainment."

The source added that while Kim is aware of Hamilton's high-profile dating history—including Nicole Scherzinger, Gigi Hadid, and Nicki Minaj—his personality is precisely what draws her to him.

"She wants a guy who’s going to challenge and stimulate her, not a pushover type who’s [intimidated] by her fame level or low on experience when it comes to dating," the source shared.

"The big issue she’s overlooking, though, is that Lewis still has plenty of women he can call on and he’s not looking for anything much more than an extended booty call," the source added. "The guy swore off serious relationships literally years ago and prides himself on bed-hopping, whether Kim chooses to accept this reality or not."

Another roadblock for the budding romance is the opinion of those in the racing champion's corner.

"There are folks in his world who think this is … a terrible idea and he’s asking for trouble with the Kardashian machine already in overdrive," the insider said. "The guy’s at the top of his game. The last thing he needs right now is to be yet another victim of the Kardashian curse!"

Rumors about Kim and Hamilton began swirling in early 2026, and the pair made headlines in February of that year when they were spotted on a romantic getaway in Paris, France.

TMZ captured pictures of the two keeping things casual as they hopped out of the same SUV at a hotel around 1 PM local time. According to the outlet, Kim and Hamilton flew to Paris on a private jet.

A previous report from The Blast noted that a source said Kim had been on a "few dates" with Hamilton before their trip to the City of Love.

"She has felt ready to put herself back out there recently," the insider added. "Everyone around her wants her to be happy after everything she has gone through."

Kim and Hamilton have a well-documented history, as the pair previously posed together at the 2014 GQ Men of the Year ceremony and at the 2021 WSJ Magazine Innovator Awards, according to PEOPLE.

In a July 2025 interview, Hamilton was candid about placing romance on the back burner to prioritize his career, calling the move "complicated" before explaining his conclusion.

"I went through that when I was in my twenties. I’ve made a different choice: I’ve decided to maximise the time I have here because it’s shorter than you think," he said. "I don’t want to have any regrets, or think that I could have given more."

Hamilton has certainly had a stellar career, making history in 2007 as the first and (currently only) Black driver in the F1. Additionally, Hamilton holds the record for the most Grand Prix wins with 105.

"Over the last ten years, I’ve concentrated on my performance," Hamilton said, adding that when he decides to get off the track for good, he'll "be able to do what I want."

"I’ll be able to devote myself to other things without constraints," he said.

In closing, Hamilton emphasized that as long as he is competing, his focus remains on being the best in his sport.
