Lewis Hamilton‘s love life has always been a thing of interest for his fans. Over the years, he has been in many high-profile relationships.

From his four-year romance with Jodia Ma, the daughter of a Hong Kong businessman, to his longest relationship with Nicole Scherzinger, Lewis Hamilton has often made headlines for his relationships. The British driver has also been linked to personalities like Shakira, Cindy Kimberly, Florence Mueller, and Kendal Jenner. And now his most recent rumored affair with Brazilian Model Juliana Nalu is back in the spotlight.

Earlier this year, Lewis Hamilton caused a social media stir with his relationship status when images from the Antarctic came through, where the Mercedes driver and Juliana Nalu were seen before the start of the 2023 season. However, the two of them posted the pictures with a day’s gap, so there wasn’t much to go on. The rumors kept building up as fans decided to dig deep into their social media lives to find evidence.

The puzzle pieces started falling into place when fans found a Coachella photograph, suspecting Juliana’s presence in the background.

Rumor started to gain traction when a hot tub snapshot with a friend, Shaun White, featured an unidentified woman’s arm in front of Lewis Hamilton. Fans suspected that it might be Juliana Nalu’s hands.

Recently, a fan noticed that Juliana Nalu posted a photo in an elevator. It was the same elevator where Hamilton posted a photo back in 2020 with Roscoe. It is also believed that he actually lives there.

Hamilton himself was responsible for adding to the rumors if I am being honest. During this year’s Spanish Grand Prix, Lewis spoke about finding himself a girlfriend. “I need to find myself a Latina,“ said the British driver during a fan interaction.

He also expressed admiration for Brazilian women, hinting at the possibility of finding love there. “Maybe when I come back… who knows?“ he teased.

Now, the rumors have taken a new turn as Hamilton and Juliana Nalu were seen together at a party in Trancoso, Brazil, ahead of the New Year’s celebration. While their relationship status remains unofficial, the public appearance suggests that things might be taking a serious turn for the Formula 1 icon.

While the fans seek some sort of approval from Hamilton and Nalu about their romance, the two have remained tight-lipped. However, earlier this year, Juliana was asked to shed light on the rumors of dating Lewis Hamilton. What was her response?

Juliana Nalu responded about her rumored love interest by avoiding the question altogether

Juliana attended the first day of the Grupo Especial parades at the Brazilian Carnival earlier this year. When asked about her rumored connection with Lewis Hamilton, she tactfully sidestepped the topic.

“I’m enjoying Carnival happily. The important thing is that I’m here enjoying [the] Carnival. I’m very happy with the affection from the people here in Brazil and I think it’s important for us to see a girl who came from the favela representing the girls, and that’s what makes me very happy,” said Juliana as per Revista Quem.

While Nalu remained silent about the rumors, Hamilton had already told the media why he keeps his love interests to himself. Reflecting on his eight-year-long association with Nicole Scherzinger, he emphasized the need for personal growth and self-sufficiency in an interview with Vanity Fair. “I learned the hard way,“ said the 7-time world champion. “I haven’t talked about it much [about his recent relationships since breaking up with Nicole]. I’ve realized that I can’t do two things or three things at once. I’ve got to focus on one.”

“I really wanted to go through a growth process of getting myself to a point where I’m happy on my own, comfortable in my space. So that if I ever do meet someone, it’s an addition, rather than ‘I need you in my life,’“ said Hamilton.
