Lewis Hamilton and Kim Kardashian appeared to end weeks of speculation surrounding their rumoured romance by making a public appearance together at the 2026 Super Bowl.
The relationship might have been all but confirmed last week when the A-listers were photographed at a luxury hotel in the Cotswolds, but the pair sent tongues wagging on Sunday evening.
The seven-time F1 world champion, 41, and the reality TV mogul, 45, were spotted by NBC cameras attending the game between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots in California.
The lovers were caught deep in conversation as the game played out in front of them, with lip-reading expert Nicola Hickling telling the Daily Mail that Hamilton is already considering taking the relationship to the next level, with a family introduction on the cards.
‘No I don’t take just any girl to my mum, I mean you’re gonna meet someday, she is very excited to see you,’ Hamilton informed Kim, according to Hickling, who is the founder of LipReader.
Hickling also noted that Kim appeared to ‘shuffle uncomfortably in her seat’ and covered her face ‘before replying with a simple okay.’

Body language expert, Judi James, meanwhile, couldn’t help but admire the way in which Kim brought her flirting A-game to the table in such a public environment.
She said: Firstly, there is the pose that registers undivided attention between them, which is a form of non-verbal stroke when you’re on a date,’ James said, dissecting their interaction.
‘Kim actually leans back to take in Lewis visually as he speaks and this flattering “stroke” produces a “purr” response from him which is visible in the way his facial features soften and he talks through a smile of pleasure.’
James noted that, ‘Kim adds to the flirting when the tip of her tongue appears at the side of her mouth. This is usually seen as a gesture of playful desire or interest.’
‘But then she seems to switch to a very smart technique of intense interest followed by distraction, suddenly looking away after bathing Lewis in her interested gaze.’
Kardashian was married to rapper Ye – formerly known as Kanye West – until 2022, and has not gone public with a relationship since her split from Pete Davidson that same year. Meanwhile Hamilton’s past high-profile romances include singer and Pussycat Dolls frontwoman Nicole Scherzinger.
Last week reports emerged that Kardashian and Hamilton retreated to the Cotswolds together in what ‘appeared to be’ a romantic trip, with the beauty mogul flying into Oxford Airport on her £100million private jet before they stayed at the nearby luxury hotel Estelle Manor.
The pair, who have been friends for years, are said to have spent 24 hours together, enjoying a couple’s massage followed by dinner in a private room.

Onlookers said Kardashian was keen to keep her presence ‘low-key’, as security rushed her inside.
‘It was all kept very quiet,’ one commented, adding that they ‘clearly wanted time just for themselves’.
Kardashian and Hamilton reportedly checked out on Sunday morning and left the private spot, where rooms are priced from £1,000 a night. They departed via separate exits and took two cars.

A source also told The Sun of the weekend: ‘It all appeared to be very romantic. Kim and Lewis made use of all the facilities on offer.
‘She had two bodyguards with her and Lewis had a close protection officer, but they remained in the background.’
Aside from Kardashian and Hamilton appearing to hard-launch their relationship at the Super Bowl, the star-studded event was packed with famous faces both on and off the field, with rappers Jay-Z and Travis Scott, Justin and Hailey Bieber, actor and director Adam Sandler, Kansas City Chiefs tight-end Travis Kelce and actress Sophia Vergara all spotted in the crowd.
