Lewis Hamilton couldn’t help but have a flirty response to Kim Kardashian’s look from the 2026 Vanity Fair Oscars party.
“GUCCI GIRL,” Kardashian, 45, wrote via Instagram on Monday, March 16, alongside a series of behind-the-scenes photos of her party look from the night before.
Kardashian donned a gold sequin turtleneck gown for the Sunday, March 15, event, which showed off her curves. She completed the look with gold platform heels. The Skims founder had shoulder-length hair with a tousled side part and wore icy blue contact lenses.
Hamilton, 41, took to the comments section to reply with the heart eyes emoji. His reply received more than 3,000 likes.
Kardashian attended the event with sisters Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner, as well as mom Kris Jenner. Hamilton did not attend the awards show despite F1 receiving multiple nominations and taking home two awards. (The Formula One driver was a producer on the racing film.)
Hamilton and Kardashian have run in similar circles over the past few years before seemingly sparking a romance. Earlier this year, the pair were spotted together at Estelle Manor in Oxfordshire, England and Super Bowl LX. Us Weekly reported at the time that Kardashian and Hamilton had gone on “a few dates” but things between them were just “casual.”
Earlier this month, Hamilton and Kardashian took a getaway to Arizona. A source told Us at the time that the twosome had “break in their schedules” and wanted to “spend more time together and really get to know each other.”
“It’s going well, and Kim has been genuinely enjoying her time with Lewis,” the insider explained, noting that they were still “taking it slow” as Hamilton had not connected with Kardashian’s children. (Kardashian shares four children, North, 12, Saint, 10, Chicago, 8, and Psalm, 6, with ex-husband Kanye West.)
An additional source later told Us that Kardashian and Hamilton’s connection was growing stronger the more time they spent together.
“They are going strong and really happy. Lewis is head over heels and those closest to him believe he has finally met his match,” the insider revealed. “He has waited over a decade for his dream girl and is crazy about her.”
The source added that Hamilton “has been FaceTiming” Kardashian “regularly from the paddock” amid his “demanding F1 schedule.”
“They are both very committed to making things work no matter how long the distance is or how busy they are,” the insider continued. “Because their relationship started with a friendship first, those closest to them believe this could be endgame for them both.”
