SANTA CLARA (Azat TV) – Billionaire businesswoman Kim Kardashian and seven-time Formula 1 champion Sir Lewis Hamilton made their highly anticipated public debut as a couple at Super Bowl LX in Santa Clara, California, on Sunday, February 8, 2026. Their affectionate appearance solidified weeks of romance rumors and immediately fueled speculation about their long-term future, with insiders suggesting the pair have already discussed having a child together via surrogacy.
The two global icons were spotted sitting side-by-side and chatting comfortably in a suite at Levi’s Stadium, with photos and a video of their interaction quickly going viral across social media platforms. Lip-reading experts, cited by e.vnexpress, even deciphered a moment where Hamilton reportedly told Kardashian, “No I don’t take just any girl to my mom, I mean you’re gonna meet someday, she is very excited to see you.” Kardashian’s simple response was ‘okay,’ according to the same report.
The Road to a Public Debut
Their Super Bowl appearance followed a series of private romantic getaways across Europe that had first ignited relationship whispers. Earlier this month, the couple enjoyed a ‘loved-up weekend’ which began at the exclusive Estelle Manor in the Cotswolds, where they reportedly shut down the spa for a couples’ massage and dined in a private room. They were then driven to London for a stay at the luxury Rosewood Hotel, a detail noted by heatworld, which suggested Hamilton’s willingness to be a passenger for over two hours indicated his deep affection for Kardashian.
Following their UK rendezvous, Kardashian chartered her $150 million private jet to whisk Hamilton off to Paris for a stay at Le Bristol hotel, where they reportedly spent most of their time together in their room. Their arrival at a Paris hotel in the same SUV was captured in a video obtained by TMZ on February 2, confirming their joint travel. Despite arriving separately at some locations, heightened security during these trips signaled a desire to protect their burgeoning romance, as reported by e.vnexpress.
Discussions of a Shared Family
Beyond their public confirmation, sources close to the couple have revealed that Kardashian, 45, and Hamilton, 41, are seriously discussing the prospect of having a baby together. According to heatworld, Lewis Hamilton is ‘desperate to be a dad’ and was upfront with Kardashian about his desire for a serious relationship heading towards family. Given Kardashian’s past health issues, which led to two of her four children being carried by a surrogate, an insider stated that they would ‘almost certainly welcome their baby using a surrogate,’ noting that Kardashian still has frozen eggs.
Hamilton, who is expected to retire from Formula 1 by early next year, is reportedly keen to start the process of becoming a father soon. The idea of having a baby with Kardashian has ‘reframed how he sees his future,’ with discussions already taking place about him potentially moving to Los Angeles and what their ‘blended family’ would look like, heatworld reported.
A Decade of Friendship and New Beginnings
Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton have shared a close friendship for over a decade, often crossing paths at high-profile events. They were first pictured together at the 2014 GQ Men of the Year Awards alongside their then-partners, Kanye West and Nicole Scherzinger. Hamilton also spent Easter with the Kardashian-Wests in 2015 and joined Kardashian in the VIP section for Kanye’s Glastonbury performance that same year. More recently, they were seen together at the WSJ Magazine Innovator Awards in 2021 and Pharrell Williams’ debut show for Louis Vuitton menswear in 2023, according to People.
This relationship marks a significant new chapter for both stars. Kardashian, a billionaire businesswoman and founder of SKIMS with a net worth of $1.9 billion, finalized her divorce from rapper Kanye West in 2022. She has since focused on raising her four children—North, 12, Saint, 10, Chicago, eight, and Psalm, six—and completing her legal studies in 2025. She recently shared on the ‘Khloé in Wonder Land’ podcast that she sought a partner with ‘good morals and values, a calm person, dependable,’ and one who ‘takes accountability,’ while noting her life is currently centered on her children and work in Los Angeles, as reported by People.
Lewis Hamilton, who shares the record for most F1 World Championships with Michael Schumacher and was knighted in 2021, has historically kept his dating life private following his long-term relationship with singer Nicole Scherzinger. Insiders suggest he feels this is ‘his moment to reinvent himself’ and is ‘completely smitten’ with Kardashian, according to heatworld.
Navigating Past Challenges
Despite the excitement, Kardashian is reportedly nervous about her new romance, particularly concerning the potential reaction from her ex-husband, Kanye West. West, 48, subjected Kardashian’s previous boyfriend, Pete Davidson, to a barrage of public abuse, including a music video depicting Davidson’s kidnapping and decapitation. Kardashian reportedly gave West a ‘heads-up’ about her serious relationship with Hamilton in an effort to ‘keep things calm and mature,’ according to heatworld. She is determined not to let ‘outside drama derail her happiness.’
The public confirmation of Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton’s relationship, quickly followed by reports of their serious discussions about starting a family, highlights a notable blend of high-profile celebrity romance with traditional aspirational milestones, setting a distinct tone for this new power couple.
