Kanye West Breaks Silence on Kim Kardashian's New Romance with Lewis Hamilton
Kanye West may have moved on and be happily married to Bianca Censori these days, but according to a source, he is reportedly struggling with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian's new relationship with Formula 1 star Lewis Hamilton. The rapper, known as 'Ye', is said to be 'crazy jealous' over the budding romance, which has seen Kim and Lewis spotted on a series of low-key dates across Britain before jetting away together.
Public Debut and Family Ties
Just last weekend, Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton went public with their relationship, attending the Super Bowl together at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. This public outing, where they were seen cuddling up, is believed to have been particularly difficult for Kanye. A source revealed, 'It is always strange for him to see his ex-wife out with another man. It felt weird with Pete Davidson and now it feels weird with Lewis Hamilton.'
Despite this, the source maintained that Kanye is very content in his marriage to Bianca Censori, whom he married in December 2022, and that he remains on good terms with Kim and their four children. Kim herself highlighted this on sister Khloe's podcast, 'Khloe In Wonder Land', stating that she and West are doing better and are on friendly terms.
Longstanding Friendship and Past Connections
Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton have known each other for over a decade, with their friendship blossoming into something deeper recently. In 2014, they were even photographed together with their respective partners at the time, Kanye West and Nicole Scherzinger, at the GQ Men of the Year Awards in London. The following year, Kanye invited Lewis to spend Easter with his family, praising his music and describing a close bond.
Lewis Hamilton later revealed in an interview with CityAM that he and Kanye had a solid connection, with Kanye saying, 'You know, me and you are very much the same.' The pair were also seen together at the 2021 Wall Street Journal's innovator awards, where Lewis shared a snap on Instagram, celebrating Kim's work with Skims.
Romantic Escapades and Growing Speculation
Rumours about Kim and Lewis began to swirl after they were seen at Kate Hudson’s New Year’s Eve party in the United States. Earlier this month, things seemed to heat up when Kim flew into the UK for a romantic weekend away in the Cotswolds with Lewis. During their stay, the couple enjoyed an intimate dinner in a private room and a couple’s massage at an exclusive hotel, further fueling speculation about their relationship.
Lewis Hamilton is also reported to be on very good terms with Kim’s famous family, with his voice heard in the background of a recent Instagram video she posted with her sisters Khloe Kardashian and Kylie Jenner. The source added, 'That used to be Ye's family, now Lewis is there, it's hard to see.' However, they emphasized that Kanye is focused on his own life and marriage, even as he navigates the complexities of his ex-wife's new romance.
