Kim Kardashian is making waves once again, and this time, it’s not about a lost diamond earring. The reality star was spotted getting seriously close with Formula 1 champ Lewis Hamilton during a steamy beach day in Malibu, where the pair didn’t hold back on the PDA. Nearly two decades after her iconic “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” moment, Kim is once again making headlines by the ocean, but now, it looks like she’s found something new to hold onto.

As expected, the internet had plenty to say. Some reactions were blunt, with comments like “Ew” and “Gross and grosser” quickly surfacing online. Others questioned the timing, with one user writing, “Stinks of desperation,” while another added, “Michael B Jordan turned her down last month. Now this desperation shot.”

Still, with the couple continuing to step out together and looking happier each time it seems Kardashian and Hamilton aren’t letting the noise slow them down.

The Malibu sighting only adds fuel to the fire after the duo recently confirmed their romance at Super Bowl LX. With each appearance, it’s becoming increasingly clear that this isn’t just a fling, it seems that things are heating up fast between the two A-listers.
