Is Kim Kardashian blacklisted by Ferrari? Claims resurface amid romance rumours with Lewis Hamilton

Alongside the dating rumours, claims have again circulated online that Kardashian is listed on Ferrari's blacklist

Kim Kardashian and Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton were spotted together in Paris on Monday, renewing speculation about a possible relationship and resurfacing long-running claims that Kardashian is quietly sidelined by luxury carmaker Ferrari.

TMZ reported the pair were seen arriving at a Paris hotel shortly after 1 pm local time, travelling in an SUV with members of their respective teams. The sighting followed reports that they had flown from the UK on a private jet after spending time in England, including a stay at an exclusive Cotswolds estate where they reportedly booked a couple’s massage and used private spa facilities.

Kardashian and Hamilton have crossed paths publicly before, including at Kate Hudson’s New Year’s Eve party in Aspen, though they avoided being photographed together on that occasion. Neither has confirmed a romantic relationship, but their repeated low-key appearances together have continued to attract attention.

Alongside the dating rumours, claims have again circulated online that Ferrari operates an informal system of customer gatekeeping, sometimes described as a “blacklist”. Kardashian is frequently named in these discussions.

The reasons cited are specific rather than arbitrary: Ferrari is known to restrict access to limited-edition models for buyers who heavily modify cars without approval, quickly resell vehicles for profit, or associate the brand with behaviour considered inconsistent with its carefully managed image.

In Kardashian’s case, reports suggest she may still purchase standard Ferrari models but is unlikely to be offered rare or invitation-only editions.

Ferrari has never confirmed the existence of any blacklist.

As for Hamilton, he announced he would leave Mercedes to join Scuderia Ferrari for the 2025 Formula 1 season, ending a decade-long partnership that delivered six world championships. His move fulfilled a long-stated ambition to race for the Italian team.

As public interest grows around Hamilton’s personal life, his focus remains on competing for Formula 1’s historic team.
