It\u2019s the celebrity pairing nobody predicted \u2013 US reality star Kim Kardashian<\/a> and seven-time Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton.<\/p>\n

But, according to insiders, the world famous duo have been quietly romancing \u2013 with 45-year-old Kim said to have recently flown to the UK to enjoy an intimate date with the British racing driver.<\/p>\n

UK publication The Sun broke the shock news to fans \u2013 reporting that the duo stayed at the ritzy Estelle Manor in the Cotswolds \u2013 making use of the on-site spa and dining privately together in a room.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt all appeared to be very romantic. Kim and Lewis made use of all the facilities on offer,\u201d a source told the outlet.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was all kept very quiet \u2014 they clearly wanted to have some time for just the two of them.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the evening, they had dinner in a private room so they didn\u2019t have other guests around.\u201d<\/p>\n

Indeed, while a romance between the Skims founder and the Ferrari diver, 41, will come as a surprise to many fans of the hit Netflix series Drive to Survive, the duo \u2013 who are both single \u2013 have been friends for more than 10 years.<\/p>\n

They were first pictured publicly together in 2014 when Lewis and his then-girlfriend, Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger, attended the same London event as Kim and her then-partner Kanye West.<\/p>\n

A year later, Kanye revealed how Lewis spent Easter with him at the family home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The rapper told how they played music in his studio and he gushed over the Formula One star\u2019s musical ability.<\/p>\n

In fact, Lewis has his own secret identity as a rapper \u2013 once revealing on Instagram that he was the mysterious artist XNDA who featured on the Christina Aguilera song Pipe.<\/p>\n

\u201cGuys, I\u2019ve spent the last ten years or more writing and recording, working with some of the most talented and beautiful people, which I\u2019m so grateful for. It\u2019s been the most incredible outlet,\u201d the star wrote at the time.<\/p>\n

\u201cI haven\u2019t got a project or album, just a bunch of different songs that some of you will be able to \u00adconnect to. They have helped me get through some of the most difficult times.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt some stage I\u2019m going to find a moment to share with you so bear with me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lewis revealed how he\u2019d had a passion for music since he was a child \u2013 a love that intensified when he dated Nicole and had a recording studio built in his home for her.<\/p>\n

And Lewis has previously opened up about his connection with Kanye too.<\/p>\n

\u201cI went to see him at his house and he goes \u2018You know, you\u2019re just like me, me and you are very much the same,\u2019\u201d Lewis said of Kanye in a 2016 interview with City AM.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe said \u2018I\u2019m big in the music world but I\u2019m trying to do what I love in fashion and people don\u2019t like it. You\u2019re big in your racing world but you love your music, and people will probably struggle to accept that. You need to do what you love and not give a f**k about what anyone thinks.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cUltimately, we shouldn\u2019t feel like we need to shrink ourselves for other people to feel comfortable,\u201d the racing driver went on.<\/p>\n

\u201cKanye\u2019s outspoken, to say the least\u2026 I wish I could be that outspoken, I really do. But I\u2019m signed to all these brands that have an idealistic image that they wish to be connected with, so I need to be careful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Did Lewis Hamilton date Kendall Jenner?<\/p>\n

In the same interview, the star also touched on his penchant for dating beautiful women.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat the tabloids and gossip sites write makes no difference to my life, and it\u2019s not going to stop me winning races,\u201d Lewis divulged.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince school I\u2019ve always been into girls, and there are some beautiful girls out there and that\u2019s definitely a good thing. I certainly can\u2019t complain.\u201d<\/p>\n

And prior to his romance with Kim, Lewis was linked to another Kardashian \u2013 her younger sister Kendall.<\/p>\n

Rumours of a romance between the racing ace and the model were sparked when Kendall was snapped wearing Lewis\u2019 gold chain during the Monaco Grand Prix in 2015.<\/p>\n

However, Lewis quickly put speculation to bed.<\/p>\n

\u201cMe and Kendall have been friends for a while, so we\u2019re just friends,\u201d he told E! News.<\/p>\n
