Lewis Hamilton Embraces Kardashian-Style Selfies in Shirtless Instagram Snap
Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton appears to have adopted some selfie techniques from his girlfriend, Kim Kardashian, judging by his latest social media post. The 41-year-old racing star posed shirtless for a striking Instagram photo on Wednesday, showcasing his six-pack and extensive tattoo collection while wearing only butter-yellow shorts and trainers. The setting was a wood-panelled room adorned with large pictures, though the exact location remains unclear.
Kardashian's Social Media Influence and Their Escalating Romance
Kim Kardashian, 45, is renowned for her expertise in social media selfies, commanding up to £1 million for a single sponsored post. Meanwhile, Hamilton and Kardashian are reportedly taking their relationship to new heights, enjoying a lavish getaway in Utah. The couple was spotted watching the sunset at an exclusive spot along the Colorado River on Saturday evening, near the ultra-private Amangiri resort, where suites cost between $3,500 and over $7,000 per night.
According to TMZ, the pair snapped a cozy selfie together before returning to a waiting black SUV. This sighting follows another high-profile rendezvous at Estelle Manor in the English Cotswolds, where Kardashian arrived via her $125 million private jet and Hamilton joined by helicopter. They shared a room, enjoyed a private dinner, and a couple's massage, with an onlooker describing the scene as "very romantic."
Family Approval and Historical Connections
A source revealed that Kardashian's family, particularly her mother Kris Jenner, adores Hamilton and fully supports the relationship. The couple's bond dates back years, with Hamilton previously spending time with Kardashian and her ex-husband Kanye West, including an Easter brunch in 2015 where West praised Hamilton's music. Hamilton has also been close friends with Kardashian's sister, Kendall Jenner, and was cheered on by Kris Jenner at the Monaco Grand Prix.
Their public appearances have increased recently, from the Super Bowl LX last month to the 2021 Wall Street Journal Innovator Awards, where Hamilton shared a photo with Kardashian, calling it an honor. In January, they were seen together after Kate Hudson's New Year's Eve party in Aspen.
Hamilton's Romantic History and Future Prospects
Hamilton has had notable past relationships, including an on-off romance with Nicole Scherzinger from 2007 to 2015, and more recent links to model Ashley Moore and singer Raye. As his romance with Kardashian intensifies, a source noted that Hamilton is eager to spend as much time with her as possible before the new F1 season begins. The couple's whirlwind travels and growing public displays suggest this relationship is moving into serious territory, blending sports stardom with reality TV glamour in a high-profile union.
