Kendall Jenner was spotted up and about in New York City on September 10 with Formula One racecar driver Lewis Hamilton, fueling rumors that the two are the new it-couple.
The 19-year-old model stepped out donning a laid-back casual look with her hair in a simple bun, less makeup and sported white high-waist skinny jeans, partnering it with a mustard yellow polo neck sweater. The ramp model completed her collegiate get-up with round specs.
As per Hollywood Life, the fashion model is currently in New York City just as New York Fashion Week is kicking off. Starting the ball rolling, the brunette took high fashion to another level as she rocked a shorter do for an upcoming photo shoot for Vogue Brazil.
The magazine’s official Instagram account posted a selfie of Kendall with her new hairstyle along with her older sis Kim Kardashian, who visited her on her photo shoot. It looks like Kim, whose due date for baby No. 2 is this December, loved her sister’s new makeover very much.
The British racecar driver, on the other hand, opted for the cool and casual look in jeans, a blue and white plaid shirt and a trilby. The 30-year-old racing pro just arrived in the US after attending the GQ Men of the Year Awards in London earlier this week where he debuted his new blonde hair.
Dating rumors between the pair have made waves since they were spotted spending some time together in May during the Monaco Grand Prix along with their friends. It was further fueled when the two were photographed again in London last June.
Mirror UK notes that in a possible attempt not be to seen together, Lewis walked slightly behind the reality TV star as he chatted with another friend who was with them.
This is the first time that Jenner and Hamilton were spotted together after Jenner’s mom and manager, Kris, openly told that she would want the two to date.
The Kardashian-Jenner matriarch apparently wants Kendall to date Lewis as the Formula One champ would be a good influence to her daughter. Not only that, his high-profile and great record would also help lift Kendall’s career, The Sun reports.
However, it looks like the odds are not yet in Kris’ favor. According to Daily Mail, the sports car icon, who won the Italian Formula One Grand Prix at Monza, Italy over the weekend, revealed that he is perfectly single and happy.
Hamilton adds that he’s currently not attached to anyone at the moment and that settling down anytime soon is not in his plans yet as he is still focusing on his career. Hamilton jokingly notes though that he doesn’t mind being associated with women as long as they’re beautiful.
After having ended his on-and-off relationship with Pussycat Dolls lead singer Nicole Scherzinger, which lasted for seven years, earlier this year, Hamilton has been linked with a lot of women.
The Formula One World Champion title holder was linked to singer Rihanna. The two spent most of their summer together partying and even being spotted at the “Umbrella” singer’s native land, Barbados, for the Kadooment Day festival. Shortly after that sighting, the pair was then seen taking New York and partying a few nights in a row.
The British sporting icon was also linked to Kendall’s best friend, model Gigi Hadid earlier this year and recently, Hamilton was seen attending the GQ Awards ceremony alongside Mario Balotelli’s ex-girlfriend, Fanny Neguesha.
As for Kendall, she recently added ‘third wheel’ as part of her long list of accolades. The Estee Lauder campaign model was spotted on September 8 tagging along her BFF Gigi Hadid and her boyfriend Joe Jonas.
