Second-Place Finish at the Monaco Grand Prix
On Sunday, June 7, 2026, Lewis Hamilton, driving for Ferrari, secured a second-place finish at the Monaco Grand Prix in Monte Carlo. The result matched his best placement in any Grand Prix since joining Ferrari ahead of the 2025 season. Hamilton received the second-place trophy on the podium and performed a brief public gesture.
Kim Kardashian’s Presence and On-Track Interaction
Kim Kardashian attended the Monaco weekend, arriving by boat with sister Khloé Kardashian and friend Simon Huck. She was photographed wearing Ferrari-branded headphones during qualifying. After Hamilton’s podium celebration, he blew a quick kiss toward Kardashian, who filmed him from the crowd. Later, Kardashian appeared startled as her bicycle nearly collided with Hamilton’s.
Background of Their Relationship
Hamilton and Kardashian have known each other since before the 2014 GQ Men of the Year ceremony. Rumors of romance began in February 2026 after a “romantic meetup” in Paris. In March 2026 Hamilton left a flirty Instagram comment; a source confirmed they vacationed in Tokyo with Kardashian’s four children—North (12), Saint (10), Chicago (8) and Psalm (7). A source told People that Kardashian is “very selective when it comes to the people she allows around her kids,” adding that Hamilton’s time with the children “reflects how much she trusts him.”
