Kim Kardashian’s romance with Lewis Hamilton just became harder to keep in the rumor stage.
The Skims founder included the Formula One star in a new Instagram carousel on Monday, June 1, sharing family photos, friend moments, and footage from a bike ride with Hamilton. Us Weekly described the post as a hard launch, while People reported that Kardashian gave followers a new look at her life with Hamilton.
The carousel was captioned simply, “lately.” Hamilton appeared during a bike ride with Kardashian, including a selfie-style clip where she nearly drifted into him while he recorded the moment.

Kardashian Put Hamilton in Her Own Photo Dump

The new post stood out because it came from Kardashian’s feed, not from a sighting, a fan video, or a separate Hamilton upload.
Hamilton appeared in the same carousel as Kardashian’s children, sisters, mother, grandmother, nieces, and friends. That placement made the update feel less like a celebrity cameo and more like part of the life she was choosing to show publicly.
People reported that the bike footage showed Kardashian’s bike nearly colliding with Hamilton’s while he recorded the two of them. Times of India also noted that Kardashian could be heard reacting as she lost her balance during the ride.
The moment gave the post its clearest couple image without needing a formal caption about the relationship. Kardashian showed Hamilton inside an ordinary-looking day, not beside her at a staged event.
There Were Earlier Instagram Clues
The June 1 carousel was a major public step, but it was not the first Instagram moment connected to Kardashian and Hamilton.
People reported that Hamilton posted a Reel in April from a high-speed drive in Tokyo, where Kardashian appeared in the passenger seat of his Ferrari F40 at the Daikoku Parking Area. In the video, she reacted to the ride by saying, “That’s insane.”
That April post followed weeks of dating speculation. People reported that Kardashian and Hamilton first sparked romance talk after a romantic meetup in Paris in early February 2026. They were later linked to Super Bowl LX, Tokyo, Los Angeles, and Coachella.
The difference now is ownership. Hamilton had already put Kardashian on his feed. Kardashian has now put Hamilton in hers, inside a broader personal update rather than a standalone couple announcement.
Family Photos Drew Attention
The carousel also drew attention because Kardashian’s children were part of the same post.
People reported that North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, whom Kardashian shares with ex-husband Kanye West, all appeared in the June 1 update. A source told the outlet that Hamilton spending time around her children reflects Kardashian’s trust in him.
“Kim’s very selective when it comes to the people she allows around her kids,” the source told People. “She’s very protective of them and doesn’t take new introductions lightly.”
People also reported that Kardashian and Hamilton vacationed together in Tokyo in March with all four of her children. The same source said Kardashian is “very happy” with the relationship but has not wanted to rush anything.
The family connection had already been growing publicly. Times of India reported that Hamilton attended Scott Disick’s birthday dinner at Nobu Malibu with his mother, Carmen Larbalestier, while Kardashian attended with several of her children.
The Romance Has Moved Past Sightings
Kardashian and Hamilton were first covered as a possible couple through sightings and travel reports. The public trail has since grown more specific.
Us Weekly previously reported that the two had gone on a few dates earlier this year and that the relationship was casual at the time. Since then, they have been connected to Paris, the Super Bowl, Tokyo, Coachella, Los Angeles outings, and family gatherings.
The June 1 carousel does not need to prove more than it shows. Hamilton is now visible in Kardashian’s own Instagram update, in the same post as her children and close family, after months of reports that the relationship had been moving carefully but steadily into public view.
