The Kim Kardashian Lewis Hamilton romance entered the public spotlight after the pair appeared together at Super Bowl 2026. Their joint presence at the global sporting event shifted weeks of speculation into open confirmation.
Fans spotted the reality star and the Formula One champion sitting side by side during Super Bowl LX at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. As the New England Patriots faced the Seattle Seahawks, cameras repeatedly focused on the pair sharing smiles and conversation.
When international broadcasters aired the footage, images and clips spread quickly across social media. Viewers around the world viewed the appearance as the clearest sign yet that the two are now a couple.
Kim Kardashian appeared comfortable and engaged throughout the game. She wore a black coat paired with a diamond choker and debuted a new hairstyle featuring bangs.
Her longtime hairstylist, Chris Appleton, shared her full look on Instagram before kick-off. His post, captioned “Super Bowl bangs,” added momentum to the online buzz surrounding her appearance.

Lewis Hamilton chose a more understated look. He wore a black athletic zip-up and diamond stud earrings, keeping his style simple while remaining polished.
Their relaxed body language signalled a clear change in approach. Although neither has issued a public statement, their comfort together suggested they no longer intend to keep the relationship private.
From private travel to public confirmation
Before the Super Bowl, reports of the couple spending time together had circulated quietly. Their joint appearance at one of the world’s biggest sporting events removed much of the uncertainty.
Earlier this month, the pair travelled together across Europe. Reports said they stayed at the luxury Estelle Manor hotel in the Cotswolds.
During the stay, they reportedly shared a room, booked a couples massage, and enjoyed a private dinner. The trip then continued to London, where they checked into the Rosewood Hotel.

The couple later travelled to Paris. There, observers spotted them entering a hotel together during Paris Fashion Week and heading out for a date night in the French capital. These sightings added weight to rumours that had followed them since the start of the year.

A source quoted by a US publication said both stars prioritise time together despite demanding schedules. According to the source, they plan meetings around Kim’s work commitments whenever possible.
A connection that spans more than a decade
Although this marks their first major public outing as a couple, Kardashian and Hamilton have known each other for years. They first appeared together at the GQ Men of the Year Awards in 2014.
They later crossed paths at the WSJ Magazine Innovator Awards in 2021 and again at Pharrell Williams’s Louis Vuitton debut in 2023. These encounters kept them within overlapping social and professional circles.
More recently, both attended Kate Hudson’s New Year’s Eve party in Colorado. Although photographers did not capture them together at the event, their shared appearance heightened curiosity.
Both Kardashian and Hamilton bring high-profile dating histories. Kardashian was last linked to NFL player Odell Beckham Jr.
She previously dated comedian Pete Davidson after her divorce from Kanye West, with whom she shares four children. Her relationships often attract intense public interest.
Hamilton has also faced regular attention over his personal life. Over the years, he has been linked to several well-known figures, including Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Gigi Hadid, and Kendall Jenner.
For now, neither has spoken publicly about the relationship. However, their confident and affectionate Super Bowl appearance suggests they are no longer keeping things under wraps.
After weeks of private travel and low-key meetings, Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton have made their relationship Super Bowl official.
