Hips Don’t Lie singer, Shakira and Formula One star Lewis Hamilton are reportedly in the early stages of a relationship.
The rumour mill started turning last week as the duo were photographed out for dinner together, with Lewis’ arm around her waist.
They had previously been spotted on a super yacht in Miami partying with friends, after the singer moved to the US earlier this year.
Shakira, 46, is single after splitting from longtime partner Gerard Piqué in June last year, and moved to Miami with their two sons Milan, 10, and eight-year-old Sasha in April.
Now a source has claimed that she and Lewis, 38, are in fact dating, and are in the ‘fun and flirty’ stage of the relationship.
‘They’re spending time together and in the “getting to know you” stage,’ a source told People.
‘It’s fun and flirty.’
Mum-of-two Shakira had been watching Lewis race at the F1 Grand Prix of Spain on Sunday and went on to grab cocktails with him and some friends later in the night, getting quite close to one another as they smiled for a photo.
Neither have commented publicly on their relationship and whether it is anything more than friends.
Shakira’s ex, footballer Gerard, 36, meanwhile, is now in a relationship with Clara Chia Martí, 24, having gone Instagram official in January this year.
Their separation has been anything but private, with lengthy legal battles over custody, Shakira throwing shade and then jetting off to Miami for a new start with the children.
Asked about claims of infidelity in a recent interview with Spanish newspaper El Pais, he said simply: ‘The day I die, I will look back and hope I have always done what I wanted.’
He said that he wants ‘to be faithful to’ himself regarding major life decisions and no longer places value on public opinion.
