Kim Kardashian, a reality TV star, went Instagram official recently as part of a massive photo dump. She uploaded images and videos from her life, which included some shots of her riding bikes with the seven-time Formula 1 World Drivers' Champion.
This served as the first official confirmation from Kardashian. Sure, photos had surfaced recently of the two out and about, including one showing them kissing in the ocean.
But neither Kardashian nor Hamilton had spoken publicly about their relationship. That changed with the reality TV star's post on social media.

Of course, the situation recently took another turn. Kardashian took a trip to Monaco last weekend, the site of the prestigious Monaco Grand Prix. She spent time on a yacht enjoying the experience, and she also hit the starting grid.
Photographers provided numerous photos to Getty Images that showed the reality TV star in Monaco. She spent considerable time with the Ferrari team for which Hamilton races.
Some photos also showed her in Hamilton's paddock; others showed her and Hamilton embracing after the prestigious Grand Prix.
Hamilton delivered another strong performance during the Monaco Grand Prix. He started third and ended the race in second place. This marked his second consecutive podium finish and his third of the season. He also finished third in the Chinese Grand Prix and second in the Canadian Grand Prix.
The all-time leader in Formula 1 wins also provided some confirmation of the relationship after the trip to Monaco. He uploaded several photos from the weekend, which included a polaroid of Kardashian.
Now that they are official, they will remain under the spotlight as the Formula 1 season continues. It's highly likely that Kardashian will continue to visit the grid before the upcoming Grands Prix.
