Lewis Hamilton's relationship in the spotlight after beach getaway photos
Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton has again put his private life on public display after sharing photographs from a recent beach holiday with US reality star Kim Kardashian. The pictures, posted on social media by both parties, follow a series of high-profile outings and media attention earlier this year.
The images published by Kardashian show the couple on a sun-soaked break accompanied by extended family. Kardashian posted a carousel of pictures on Instagram with the caption "Somewhere over the rainbow", including shots of the couple walking on the beach and a mirror selfie.
"It's amazing to have her come this weekend and have the support,"
The relationship has been visible at public events. Hamilton was first seen with Kardashian in Paris and subsequently hosted her at the set of her production, while Kardashian attended the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix in June. At the Grand Prix, Hamilton — described in media reports as a key Ferrari rival in the paddock — commented on the support he had received during the weekend.
Social media confirmation and shared moments
Hamilton himself shared photographs from the vacation. Earlier in April the driver posted a reel on his Instagram account which was widely interpreted as confirming the pair’s relationship. The clip showed Hamilton driving a Ferrari F40 at speed at the Daikoku Parking Area in Tokyo, with Kardashian visible in the passenger seat at the end of the video. Hamilton captioned that reel "HERE WE GO AGAIN TOKYO DRIFT VOL. III," and the clip was set to the song "Victory Lap" by Skepta, PlaqueboyMax and Fred Again.
The posted footage captured Kardashian reacting to the joyride by saying, "That's insane," as the camera moved towards her. The Tokyo clip and the more recent beach imagery form part of an ongoing pattern of public appearances and posts that have given followers a sustained look at the couple's private life.
Who accompanied the couple on holiday
Reports indicate the break was a family affair. Kardashian was joined by her children — Saint, Chicago and Psalm — and her sister Khloé Kardashian with her children True and Tatum. Hamilton was reportedly accompanied by family members including his niece Willow, nephew Kaiden, and his younger brother Nicholas Hamilton.
