Rumors surrounding Shakira’s romance with Lewis Hamilton continue to escalate. The pair went on multiple dates over the past three months. She made her presence known on the weekend of the Miami Grand Prix. After the event, Lewis and Shakira shared a yacht ride and had a dinner date soon after.

Rumors of a possible romance grow with her attendance at Hamilton’s home and Grand Prix. In fact, their latest outing, post the event, took place at a London-based nightclub, Tape. Considering the news from that night, they danced together and exhibited a friendly demeanor.

Common layers between the new connection

Shakira announced her separation from her ex-husband, Gerard Piqué in June 2022. She publically expressed her disappointment over Piqué’s alleged lack of commitment. In fact, she claims she didn’t receive the same level of reciprocation from him. And after 11 years of being together with him, Shakira definitely looked elsewhere.

And her search probably stopped at the NBA finals in May 2023. This is where the initial sparks started flying between the Hips don’t Lie singer and the Miami Heat star.

While, on the other hand, Jimmy Butler has had a child with Kaitlin Nowak since 2019. And on many occasions, he has discussed the challenges of balancing his celebrity status and attempting to establish a family.
