Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton have the internet in full analysis again. On Monday, Kim shared an Instagram carousel captioned ‘recently’, and it featured a playful video of a bike ride in New York City with Hamilton. For many people online, this seemed to be the clearest sign yet that the two aren’t keeping things so quiet anymore.

The post was placed right in the middle of the romance timeline that people have been following closely for months. Kardashian and Hamilton have been linked since late last year, with dating rumors intensifying in January. Since then, they have been spotted together in London, Paris, and Japan, and this latest upload has stoked the buzz even more.

What Kim’s ‘recent’ post showed

The biggest talking point in the carousel was an entertaining video of a New York bike ride. Hamilton, 41, filmed Kardashian, 45, trying to take a selfie while she was riding. At one point during the ride, she lost her balance and nearly fell off the bike before screaming in shock. The moment was candid, funny and very awkward, the kind of clip that says a lot without any formal announcement.

The post also included photos of Kardashian’s four children with ex-husband Kanye West: North West, 12, Saint West, 10, Chicago West, 8, and Psalm West, 7.

Why has the discussion about dating become more intense?

The Instagram upload comes after Kardashian and Hamilton were seen together during a walk on Malibu beach on April 20. In photos and videos that surfaced online, the rumored couple were seen walking on the shore, chatting and laughing before heading into the water for a swim. Kardashian wore a bikini top with a partially open black wetsuit, while Hamilton wore a T-shirt and shorts and was also photographed carrying a surfboard.

During that walk, Kardashian leaned in and the two shared a kiss while holding each other. Earlier, on April 7, the pair also shared a video from Tokyo on Instagram in which Kardashian was seen riding in a Ferrari driven by Hamilton. This was widely seen as their first public acknowledgment after months of dating rumors.

It is also believed that the two have known each other for over a decade, with them moving into the same social circles before they reportedly got romantic in 2026.
