Kim Kardashian’s Now Married Ex Reportedly ‘Jealous’ Over Rumoured Romance With Lewis Hamilton
Years after their separation, Kanye West is reportedly struggling with jealousy over his ex-wife Kim Kardashian's rumoured new relationship with Formula 1 star Lewis Hamilton.
The speculation intensified after Kardashian and Hamilton were seen together at Super Bowl LVIII this past Sunday.
While the romance rumours are new, Kardashian and Hamilton have been friends for over a decade. Their history includes a joint appearance at the 2014 GQ Men of the Year Awards in London, where both attended with their partners at the time—Kardashian with West, and Hamilton with then-girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger.
Kardashian and West finalised their divorce in 2021, and the rapper has since married Bianca Censori. Despite his new marriage, West is said to be unhappy about his ex-wife's connection to his longtime friend.
Why Kanye West is Jealous
A source speaking to the Daily Mail revealed West's feelings on the matter. "Ye is jealous, yup, it feels weird for him," the insider stated. "It is always strange for him to see his ex-wife out with another man. It felt weird with Pete Davidson and now it feels weird with Lewis Hamilton."
The source added that West was particularly displeased by Kardashian and Hamilton attending the Super Bowl together. Fan theories have also fueled the fire, with many believing Hamilton's voice was audible in an Instagram video Kardashian posted on February 9, suggesting he is already becoming close with the Kardashian-Jenner family.
This perceived closeness is another point of contention for the "Hurricane" rapper. "That used to be Ye’s family, now Lewis is there, it’s hard to see," the source explained to the Daily Mail. However, the insider also noted that West's marriage to Censori is "stable" and that he maintains a good co-parenting relationship with Kardashian for their four children.
