Lewis Hamilton is facing renewed online talk about the so-called “Kardashian curse” after a mixed finish at the Japanese Grand Prix, despite improved early-season form.

While Kim Kardashian was not present at the race, reports say she and the F1 legend have been spending time together, including a recent trip and a brief UK visit.

Insiders claim the speculation is adding pressure, though Lewis Hamilton remains focused on performance, while their relationship continues to draw public attention and scrutiny.

Lewis Hamilton Draws ‘Kardashian Curse’ Chatter After Mixed Japanese GP Finish

Hamilton is reportedly facing online chatter about the so-called “Kardashian curse” after a mixed result at the Japanese Grand Prix.

The seven-time world champion had been in Tokyo ahead of the Suzuka race on Sunday, March 29, where he finished sixth after previously placing fourth and third in the opening rounds of the 2026 Formula One season.

While Kim Kardashian was not present at the track, she had reportedly spent time with Hamilton in Japan alongside her three youngest children, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, before the race weekend.

Despite her absence from the event itself, some fans have still linked Hamilton’s result to the viral “curse” theory, which suggests that men who date members of the Kardashian-Jenner family experience setbacks in their personal or professional lives. Past examples often cited online include Scott Disick, Kanye West, and Lamar Odom.

A source, who spoke to a news outlet, claims the speculation has begun to affect the atmosphere around Hamilton, suggesting that constant online talk is adding unnecessary pressure as he tries to regain top form.

“Kim was not at the actual race, but people are still pointing the finger at her,” the source said. “Naturally, it’s getting in his head.”

They added that while he has defended Kardashian, “it’s still a lot of noise to deal with when he’s trying to stay focused and get back on form.”

Lewis Hamilton Plans To ‘Silence’ The ‘Kardashian Curse’ Talks By Putting On A Great Performance

It’s worth noting that Hamilton’s recent performance is still an improvement compared to parts of the previous season, where results were more inconsistent.

He is also said to be aware of the ongoing “Kardashian curse” chatter online, with a source claiming he feels the best way to silence the “whispers is to perform,” especially as pressure builds heading into his next race weekend.

Meanwhile, the SKIMS founder reportedly made an 11,000-mile round trip to the UK to see Hamilton, flying from Los Angeles to London on a private jet after spending time with her family and completing work commitments.

She is said to have landed at Farnborough Airport before heading to his £18 million [$24 million] Kensington home for a brief but meaningful visit.

Sources claim the visit was tightly scheduled, but both “are determined to do everything to see each other when they have any spare time.”

Kim Kardashian And Lewis Hamilton’s Relationship Sparks Mixed Public Attention

As their relationship continues to attract attention, insiders suggest they may not be making joint red carpet appearances anytime soon.

While Hamilton is reportedly focused on maintaining privacy and discipline due to the demands of Formula One, Kardashian is said to be more open to public outings, with sources noting she enjoys more visible displays of their relationship.

Behind the scenes, however, reports suggest a surprisingly calm reaction from Kanye West. Insiders say his stance has shifted compared to the past, with claims that he views Hamilton as a positive and stable presence.

According to reports, Hamilton has already spent time around Kardashian’s children during recent trips, with sources describing him as comfortable and respectful in family settings.

On the other hand, those close to the situation say West’s main focus is stability for his children, and that he reportedly “feels at peace right now with Lewis being around his kids.”

“He was trustful about that,” a source noted, adding that the rapper “loves Kim in a way that he wants the best for her well-being.”

Kim Kardashian Opens Up About Relationship Standards And Life As A Hands-On Mother

Earlier this year, Kardashian opened up about her approach to relationships and what she’s looking for in a partner during an appearance on her sister Khloé Kardashian’s “Khloé in Wonder Land” podcast.

She shared that qualities like strong morals, stability, and emotional accountability are most important to her, describing a “calm, dependable” personality as a priority. For Kardashian, accountability stands out as a key trait she values most in any future relationship.

She also addressed her personal life at the time, revealing that she hadn’t been secretly dating over the past year. The mom of four explained that her focus had largely been on her children and daily responsibilities, noting how hands-on her routine is, from school runs to bedtime.

“I just feel like my kids need me. It’s really hard when I have to put them to bed every night. I get them up. I take them to school,” she explained. “I get them ready. They sleep in my bed. I haven’t had time — and I’m okay with that.”
