Kim Kardashian has seemingly soft-launched her romance with Lewis Hamilton on Instagram.
The Skims founder, 45, took to the social media platform on Thursday, April 16, to share a photo dump from Coachella 2026, including a snap that appeared to feature Hamilton, 41 — or, at least, his hand.
The photo showed Kardashian wearing a plunging black bodysuit, leather pants and a bandana around her head as she sat in a mystery man’s lap. The man, who also wore all black, rested his hand on Kardashian’s leg. Eagle-eyed fans noticed that his tattoos resembled the ones that cover Hamilton’s hand.
“The second picture with Lewis omggg😍,” one fan commented on the post, while another user simply wrote, “LEWIS.”
“Sir Lewis Hamilton in the second pic I see you,” a third person added.
Kardashian and Hamilton were spotted linking arms at Justin Bieber’s headlining Coachella set in Indio, California, on Saturday, April 11. As seen in photos published by TMZ, Kardashian was wearing the same outfit seen in her Instagram post, while Hamilton appeared to be wearing the same black sweatshirt sported by the mystery man.
Us Weekly confirmed Kardashian and Hamilton’s romance in February, with a source revealing that they had been “on a few dates” and were keeping things “casual.”
“She has felt ready to put herself back out there recently,” the insider exclusively told Us of Kardashian, who divorced Kanye West in 2022. The exes share kids North, 12, Saint, 10, Chicago, 8, and Psalm, 6.
“Everyone around her wants her to be happy after everything she has gone through,” the source continued.
Hamilton and Kardashian were friends for more than a decade before their relationship began. In 2014, they were photographed together at the 2014 GQ Men of the Year ceremony alongside West, 48, and Hamilton’s then-girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger.
Kardashian appeared on Hamilton’s Instagram earlier in April when the Formula 1 driver shared a video of himself behind the wheel of a Ferrari as his girlfriend smiled in the passenger seat.
“That’s insane,” Kardashian said.
Another insider exclusively told Us in March that Hamilton and Kardashian 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 said. “He has waited over a decade for his dream girl and is crazy about her.”
Despite Hamilton’s busy F1 schedule, the insider added that he and Kardashian are “both very committed to making things work.”
“Because their relationship started with a friendship first, those closest to them believe this could be endgame for them both,” the source concluded.
