Last year, rumors about a possible romance between Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton and singer Shakira were all over the news. However, those speculations seem to have fizzled out, as Hamilton now appears to have his sights set on another Colombian—actress and model Sofía Vergara.
According to TMZ, the 52-year-old actress and the 40-year-old driver were seen enjoying a romantic dinner at an upscale New York City restaurant. Reports mention that the two shared flirtatious moments, exchanged meaningful glances, and laughed together throughout the evening.

Photos from the outing show them chatting warmly and smiling before getting into a black SUV together and heading to an undisclosed location. Whether they went home separately, to one of their places, or somewhere else to continue their evening remains unknown.
Other outlets, including US Weekly, have clarified that the meeting between the two was purely friendly, with no romantic connection. So far, no photos have surfaced to confirm any type of relationship beyond friendship. However, speculation continues to run wild, fueling conversations across social media.

Since her relationship with actor Joe Manganiello—whom she married in 2015 and later split from in 2023—the Modern Family star has only been publicly linked to orthopedic surgeon Justin Saliman. In October 2024, however, the Colombian actress announced that she was single once again and fully focused on her career.
Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton is often regarded as one of Hollywood’s “golden bachelors,” with few confirmed relationships. His longest and most notable romance was with Nicole Scherzinger of The Pussycat Dolls, a relationship that lasted seven years. While he has been romantically linked to celebrities like Shakira and Rita Ora, none of those rumors ever developed into anything concrete.
