Aston Martin F1 star Fernando Alonso<\/a> has finally gone public with his girlfriend on social media after months of rumours surrounding the couple. <\/p>\n

\nThe two-time champion has been preoccupied with a tough F1 campaign in 2025 that saw Aston Martin finish P7 in the constructors’ standings<\/a> and Alonso P10 in the drivers’ championship. <\/p>\n

\nThe 44-year-old made no attempt to hide his dislike of Aston Martin’s 2025 challenger<\/a>, describing the final two rounds of the year as ‘celebratory races’ due to the fact that it would allow him to wave goodbye to the AMR25. <\/p>\n

\nBut 2026 looks brighter for the Spaniard as he will finally get the opportunity to drive an Adrian Newey-designed F1 car<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\nThe design guru officially joined the Silverstone-based squad earlier this year and will step into the surprise additional role of team principal from 2026<\/a> as well. <\/p>\n

Alonso shares loved-up snap with girlfriend<\/p>\n

\nFor now, Alonso appears to be taking time to enjoy the off-season and has taken to Instagram to share snaps of his partner and his beloved Aston Martin Valiant. <\/p>\n

\nThe carousel of images began with Alonso stood proudly in front of the impressive road car<\/a> which he produced as a custom collaboration with Aston Martin, with the accompanying caption: “Perfect Sunday ride- Valiant, you\u2019ve got it all.” <\/p>\n

\nThree slides into the post however and the focus shifted from the vehicle to Alonso’s girlfriend<\/a>, Spanish journalist Melissa Jimenez. <\/p>\n

\nThe couple stood close together in the image, looking cosy as Alonso snapped a picture of he and his partner in the reflection of the Valiant’s window. <\/p>\n

\nDespite reportedly being together since 2023, not much is known about Alonso and Jimenez’s relationship, and she is rarely featured on the F1 star’s Instagram. <\/p>\n

\nIt is likely the couple met in the F1 paddock due to Jimenez’s role as a reporter with sports network DAZN. <\/p>\n

\nThe Spanish star reportedly speaks five languages and is believed to currently be living in Monaco with Alonso, who previously resided in Spain. <\/p>\n

\nShe has three children from a previous relationship with Spanish footballer Marc Bartra. <\/p>\n
