F1 superstar Lewis Hamilton is reportedly dating American reality television royalty Kim Kardashian. Kim, 45, is said to have flown in from Los Angeles aboard her £100million private jet to enjoy a romantic evening with British champion Lewis, 41. The mother-of-four and the seven-time F1 world titleholder treated themselves to a candlelit dinner and couples’ spa treatment during a weekend getaway in the English countryside.
Kim touched down at Oxford Airport on Saturday afternoon, where two vehicles – one dedicated to her belongings – stood ready to transport her to Estelle Manor, a mere nine-minute journey away. An hour afterwards, Lewis, who competes for Italian outfit Ferrari, arrived at the Grade II-listed venue by helicopter, hired from London’s Battersea Heliport.
Insiders claim that they enjoyed private use of the luxurious wellness centre at the country retreat in Witney, Oxfordshire, before savouring cuisine in an exclusive dining room.
A source told The Sun: “It all appeared to be very romantic. Kim and Lewis made use of all the facilities on offer. Two of the three stood guard outside the door to their room, so no one could disturb them.”
Kim descended with a mountain of suitcases for her fleeting visit to the upmarket Estelle Manor in the Cotswolds, accompanied by three security personnel safeguarding the duo’s privacy.
Lewis has been friends with Kim for years and maintained a friendship with her rapper former partner, Kanye West. Nevertheless, this marks the first occasion the duo have been romantically connected.
After Kim landed, Lewis arrived at the Grade II-listed venue by helicopter, which had been chartered from London’s Battersea Heliport.
A witness said: “Kim’s arrival was very low-key. She was flanked by two bodyguards and was whisked inside.

“An hour later, around 4pm, Lewis landed in a helicopter and walked inside where other guests were mingling around.”
Sources disclosed the duo stayed in a suite within the main wing of the establishment, which sits across 85 acres of countryside. The pair also had exclusive use of the spa and swimming pool during the evening before enjoying an intimate dinner for two.
They reportedly arranged a couple’s massage throughout their stay, which was kept under wraps, insiders claim.
Social media enthusiast Kim posted nothing from her visit to the venue, where suites start from £1,000 per night, whilst Lewis similarly remained silent online.
On Sunday morning, he was seen utilising the fitness centre and strolling around the estate wearing an oversized grey tracksuit with the hood pulled up. The couple departed at approximately 11am and travelled together in the two vehicles that had transported Kim from the airport.
A bystander witnessed one of Kim’s security team carrying her £80,000, 50cm Birkin handbag alongside eight pieces of luggage. They revealed that whilst Lewis departed through the main entrance, Kim left via a side door, though she remained conspicuous as she “had about eight suitcases” bearing her name, the witness noted.
The duo first crossed paths on the celebrity scene and were photographed alongside their respective partners at the time – Kanye West and Nicole Scherzinger – at the 2014 GQ Men of the Year Awards in London.
Lewis subsequently developed a friendship with Kim’s half-sister, supermodel Kendall Jenner, who accompanied him for a circuit at the Miami Grand Prix in 2024. Meanwhile, Kim’s mother, Kris Jenner, also enjoyed time with him in the paddock at the Monaco Grand Prix in 2019.
In 2015, Kanye invited Lewis to celebrate Easter with the family, and the two connected over their shared passion for music. Following her separation from her third husband, Kanye, in 2021, Kim maintained her connection with Lewis, and both received honours at the Wall Street Journal’s Innovator Awards ceremony.
Lewis was recognised for his sporting achievements, whilst Kim was acknowledged for her shapewear and lingerie brand Skims, which currently boasts a valuation of approximately £3.6billion.
