Fact Check: Did Lewis Hamilton Breakup With Kim Kardashian?

Published 02/06/2026, 3:24 PM EST

Choosing to remain with Ferrari was not the only shocking decision Lewis Hamilton made recently. The Formula 1 champion surprised fans just as much when rumors surfaced that he was dating Kim Kardashian, speculation that began circulating earlier this month after they were seen spending time together at high profile events.

Now, just as those dating rumors continue to swirl, a new claim has entered the conversation, one that challenges the story entirely.

The latest wave of chatter began after a pop culture account, AP Popculture, shared what it claimed was a personal statement from Lewis Hamilton. The post suggested Hamilton was apologizing for a relationship that allegedly did not align with his values. The statement quickly spread across social media, leading many to assume the rumored romance had already ended.

However, there is no verified confirmation that the statement is real. Neither Lewis Hamilton nor Kim Kardashian has addressed it publicly, and no credible outlets have backed the claim. 

The circulated message spoke about personal reflection, learning from choices, and respecting everyone involved. It framed the situation as a quiet step back rather than public drama. Still, without confirmation, the post remains unverified, and fans are being urged to treat it with caution rather than take it as truth.

How Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton sparked dating speculation

Despite the breakup talk, reports about their time together tell a different story. Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton have known each other socially for years, but recent sightings have reignited dating speculation. They were reportedly seen spending a private weekend together at a luxury country house hotel in Oxfordshire, away from cameras and crowds, as per The Sun.

For two global icons used to public scrutiny, choosing privacy is notable. While neither has confirmed a relationship, their recent time together suggests there may be more substance to the dating rumors than the breakup claims currently circulating.

At this point, the truth sits somewhere between speculation and silence. No breakup has been confirmed, and no relationship has been officially announced. Until either speaks directly, everything remains a rumor.
