"Nicole used to sing this for me": Lewis Hamilton misses his ex-girlfriend before F1 race

Lewis Hamilton was in a lengthy relationship with Hollywood pop star Nicole Scherzinger. One of the prominent members of Pussycat Dolls. The two have had a rocky relationship as they were usually in an on-and-off relationship.

The duo finally put an end to their relationship in 2015. Since then, Hamilton has largely been single except few other dating links. The Briton has kept his personal life secret so far.

But it’s apparent that he doesn’t have a family and has dedicated himself to his F1 career. In which he is massively successful, with seven world titles and 103 Grand Prix wins.

Lewis Hamilton misses his ex-girlfriend

But that doesn’t mean he isn’t allowed to go down memory lane like any other normal human. In 2017, during the Bahrain Grand Prix 2017, he posted a video of him listening to Stickwitu by Pussycat Dolls.

He captioned the video: “Nicole [Scherzinger] used to sing this for me. Such a beautiful song. Good times.” Surely, Hamilton was in a big nostalgia moment at that time. Listening to the song sung by his ex-girlfriend even two years after his breakup.

However, the walk to memory lane hardly affected Hamilton’s performance. The Briton stood on the podium with a P2 by the end of the weekend, only missing the race win against Sebastian Vettel, who was driving for Ferrari back then.

Moving on in life

Lately, Hamilton has shown little about his private life; forget about his romantic life. He looks solely focused on his F1 career and apparently has no plans to raise a family right now.

On the other hand, Scherzinger eventually moved on from Hamilton and initially had a brief relationship with a Tennis star Grigor Dimitrov. Now, at 44, the American celebrity is planning to get married to her boyfriend, Thom Evans, a rugby player.

According to DailyMail, a friend of the couple revealed they are planning to exchange rings as their romance has boomed after they first met in X-Factor celebrities 2019.

In that show, Evans was a contestant and Scherzinger a judge for the show. The former asked her for marriage during their romantic trip to Mykonos, to which she obviously said yes.
