Formula 1 racer Lewis Hamilton is famous for so much more than just his record-setting 7 World Championships in the pinnacle of motorsports. Dictating a net worth of $285 million, Lewis Hamilton is one of the world’s highest-paid athletes, and thus, it is no surprise that he has friends in all the high places. Lewis’s popularity has now gone beyond him being just a Formula 1 racer since he has dabbled in some music, and has also designed an entire clothing line with Tommy Hilfiger. And of course, he is friends with world-famous rapper Nicki Minaj, who has even been rumored to be one of his past girlfriends.
Lewis Hamilton and Nicki Minaj go back a long way since they were first spotted together at a fashion show by famed designer Alexander Wang in 2016. The ‘Anaconda’ songstress took the seat right beside Lewis at the New York Fashion Week as they attended Wang’s runway show together. A couple of years later, Nicki appeared at the launch party of Lewis Hamilton’s clothing line with Tommy Hilfiger in New York during the Fashion Week once more. The two took some red carpet photos together and those started the rumors about their relationship.
In 2018, Nicki even congratulated Lewis Hamilton by calling him a ‘sweetheart’ for his Formula 1 World Championship victory. But now, Nicki is married to Kenny Petty, and Lewis is rumored to be dating Brazilian model and Kanye West’s ex Juliana Nalu. Recently, Nicki replied to one of her fans who wondered if she has met any men who have Capricorn as their sunsign.

Now, Lewis Hamilton is a Capricorn, and he seemed to have jokingly taken offence at Nicki’s remark. He took to his X account and questioned Nicki, saying, “Lil?“
Lewis Hamilton spends his F1 off-season days in Brazil with Juliana Nalu, sparking romance rumors
Being the massive global star that he is, Lewis Hamilton’s personal life always piques the interest of the fans. And currently, they are all gushing over the recent pictures that the paparazzis took of Lewis with his rumored model beau Juliana Nalu on their Brazil vacation during the New Year’s Eve. The two appeared at a nightclub in the South American country, and were also seen enjoying a boat ride the next day.
This is not the first time that Juliana Nalu has been linked to Lewis Hamilton. The 24-year-old was first seen with Lewis on his trip to Antarctica where he enjoyed a vacation with his friends Shaun White and Nina Dobrev. Juliana Nalu first came in the spotlight for dating Kanye West following the rapper’s breakup with Kim Kardashian. But the two called it quits within a couple of month’s since Nalu replied to a fan on social media confirming that their relationship was over.
On the work front, Lewis Hamilton has his work cut out for the 2024 F1 season. After two entire years without a single Grand Prix win, the critics have started questioning the World Champion’s prowess behind the wheels. Mercedes Boss Toto Wolff has vowed their challenger for the next year will be very different from the cars Lewis and his teammate George Russell were given to drive in 2023. It remains to be seen if the new machines can return Mercedes to their winning ways or if their expectations only see failure.
