Kim Kardashian’s Dating Mindset Before Dating Lewis Hamilton
In an October 2026 profile with The Times of London, Kardashian opened up about where she was emotionally before her romance with Hamilton began.
“I was really single for five years, and that felt great,” she said. “I could focus on my kids and projects that I really wanted to be involved with. I really felt no rush. Like, I really didn’t feel empty. I felt like I needed my time. I wanted to completely heal and just work on myself. I wasn’t ready to open up. I really wasn’t even thinking about it. The universe works in your favour when you just allow it to.”
When asked whether she wanted to discuss her romance with Hamilton, she replied: “In the most respectful way, I’d probably rather not.”
Kim Kardashian Teased Their Romance on ‘The Kardashians’
On the October 22, 2026, episode of The Kardashians, the reality TV star spoke with Nikki Glaser about a list of 50 attributes she had compiled for an ideal partner. She simply told Glaser that the person currently in her life checked every single box, prompting producers to press for more.
“Oh, you guys are really trying to get this out of me,” Kardashian replied in a confessional. “Let me just say this, I am just really, really happy. That’s all I’ll say for now.”
In a separate confessional, she elaborated: “Isn’t that crazy? Every single [box is checked]. 55 [of them]. To just look up one day and be like, ‘Wait, let me check the manifest list.’ And then be like, ‘Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.’ It is a crazy feeling.”
Elsewhere during filming, Kardashian was shown taking a “private call” with Hamilton.
Kim Kardashian’s ‘Manifest List,’ Explained
Kardashian first described her wish list in a June 2023 episode of the Hulu series.
“[I need him to] protect me [and] fight for me. Good hygiene, and that is a given, so I should maybe take that off. [He should be] calm. No mom or dad issues,” the Skims cofounder stated at the time. “[I want someone who is] patient, supportive, genuinely happy for me [and] successful. [He should be] spontaneous, fun [and] my friends and family love him. [I want] someone that can be a role model for my kids—especially someone my boys can look up to.”
She added that her future partner should not have “heavy baggage,” saying, “I have enough. [I hope he is] taller than me and someone that loves to work out. [He should be a] motivated and independent person. Someone who is not clingy and someone with good taste.”
In a 2024 episode of SiriusXM’s This Life of Mine With James Corden podcast, Kardashian added even more criteria.
“[I’m looking for someone who is] accountable for actions. Takes accountability, [has] good teeth, can hold their own and I don’t have to babysit [them] all the time,” she noted. “Just a good, genuine person that’s driven and has their own motivations in life.”
