Lewis Hamilton Firmly Shuts Down Questions About Kim Kardashian Romance
Formula 1 superstar Lewis Hamilton has issued a blunt and unequivocal response to questions regarding his romantic connection with reality television icon Kim Kardashian. The seven-time world champion was directly questioned about the nature of their relationship during an interview, leading to a sharp retort.
Public Appearance Sparks Speculation
The speculation intensified after Hamilton and Kardashian were first spotted together in public at the Super Bowl American Football event. The high-profile gathering took place at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, last weekend, drawing significant media attention and fan curiosity.
Hamilton's Direct Statement on Privacy
During a subsequent chat with Sky Sports reporter Ted Kravitz, Hamilton was asked if he had enjoyed Kardashian's company more than the game itself. The F1 driver did not take kindly to the inquiry. "I’m not commenting on that. That’s private," Hamilton stated firmly, according to Kravitz's account of the exchange.
Kravitz elaborated on the interaction, revealing that Hamilton had been asked the same question in the written press. "He was asked: ‘Did you enjoy your company more than the game at the Super Bowl?’. And he said: ‘It’s my private life. I’m not talking about that’. So, that’s me told," the reporter explained.
Reporter Admits to Backing Down
The reporter further admitted that he had considered asking if Kardashian would become a Tifosi, the term for Ferrari fans, but decided against it. "I chickened out. Quite right. He was never going to give me an answer, though, was he?" Kravitz remarked, acknowledging Hamilton's steadfast commitment to keeping his personal affairs out of the public eye.
Previous Reports of Romantic Getaway
Prior to their Super Bowl appearance, it was reported that both Hamilton and Kardashian had checked into the luxurious Estelle Manor in the Cotswolds. The exclusive country club in Witney, Oxfordshire, allegedly provided them with private spa facilities and a dining suite, accompanied by Kardashian's bodyguards.
A source close to the situation described the atmosphere as very romantic, noting that the pair made full use of the amenities while security personnel remained discreetly in the background. "Two of the three stood guard outside the door to their room, so no one could disturb them," the source added.
This incident highlights the ongoing tension between public figures' right to privacy and the media's pursuit of personal stories, with Hamilton drawing a clear boundary around his private life amidst growing speculation.
