Finally Confirmation on if Kim’s Kids Have Met Lewis Hamilton as 1 Child Is Still ‘Fiercely Loyal’ to Kanye—Her BF ‘Isn’t Trying to Be Their Dad’
Moving on after a divorce is hard, and it’s especially complicated when there are kids involved. Because kids mean the person you were with will always be part of your life, in one way or another. That’s the situation Kim Kardashian is facing as she is reportedly starting a new relationship with F1 superstar Lewis Hamilton.
First hurdle? Introducing her new boyfriend to the kids. And Rob Shuter is reporting that it went really well. “The kids like him. They really do,” one insider revealed. “Lewis is calm, respectful, and very present. That matters.”

Reportedly, Hamilton and Kim Kardashian’s four kids, North, 12, Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6, who she shares with ex Kanye West, have spent time together in low-key settings. Nothing big and no chance of paparazzi. “He’s not trying to be their dad,” the insider said. “He’s just showing up.” Which makes sense. It is, after all, very early in the relationship.
But whatever ends up happening, it seems like North West will take some convincing. “North is fiercely loyal to her dad,” a source said. “She’s protective, skeptical, and not easily impressed.”
However, the same insiders tell Shuter that Kim’s oldest daughter is willing to try. “North hasn’t pushed back,” the source added. “That’s huge. So far, so good.” And her kids are Kim’s main priority at this stage. “She won’t risk her kids’ trust for anyone.”
And the rest of the family? Well, mom Kris Jenner is reportedly 100% in. “Kris approves,” the source confirmed. “And yes, she’s already thinking big.” It was always to be expected, considering Hamilton is a global superstar.
“She’s thinking Formula 1, Skims, luxury, Europe, legacy,” the source explained. “The math is mathing.”
Of course, the relationship has to work out for all of this to come true. And reportedly, it’s still all very new. The Sun reported just a few days ago that the two had recently spent a romantic weekend together in the Cotswolds, England, and then the pair attended the Super Bowl together, where they were photographed deep in conversation.
However, the two have known each other for over a decade. So, this is hardly new. It’s just that, back then, they were both with other people.
In fact, there were even rumors flying around that Hamilton had at one point dated Kim’s younger sister, Kendall Jenner. However, Hamilton himself denied this years ago. “Me and Kendall have been friends for a while, so we’re just friends,” he told E! News in 2014.
He did have a lot of good things to say about her at the time, though. “She’s doing incredible, she’s very focused, very level-headed, and she’s just — for such a young woman, she’s very grown up,” he said. Probably why the family likes him.
Now, it seems like the relationship between Hamilton and Kim has progressed way past harmless flirtation if he’s already hanging out with her kids. What this means for the future, we will have to wait and see. His schedule is about to get very busy soon with the F1 season, after all.
