Lewis Hamilton and Nicole Scherzinger’s tumultuous relationship ended in 2015 after eight long years of on-and-off romance. The pair admitted they are no longer in contact, but it did not mean they were bitter about the separation. Ever since their breakup, they have been dating other high-profile personalities.
The ex-couple started dating in 2007, but because of the long distance, as they were based in different countries, they found it difficult to make the relationship work. Despite multiple attempts at repairing the damage, they finally had enough.
Lewis Hamilton On Losing Love And Moving On
In an interview with Vanity Fair, British race car driver Lewis Hamilton opened up about his high-profile breakup from former Pussycat Dolls leader Nicole Scherzinger. He shared his realizations about the gruelling experience and the issues he encountered during the span of their long-term romance.
“I learned the hard way. I haven’t talked about it much. I’m really just super focused on work. I’ve realized that I can’t do two things or three things at once, I’ve got to focus on one.”
Hamilton was based in Monaco at the time, while Scherzinger worked in Los Angeles. The hectic schedule and different lines of job became the root cause of their irreconcilable differences. Still, Hamilton remained hopeful that in his next relationship, things would work out and fall into place.
“I really wanted to go through a growth process of getting myself to a point where I’m happy on my own, comfortable in my space. So that if I ever do meet someone, it’s an addition, rather than ‘I need you in my life.’ ”
The famous Formula One driver has been linked to a couple of well-known figures in Hollywood, such as Rihanna, Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Rita Ora, Nicki Minaj, Barbara Palvin, and Shakira, to name a few.
Nicole Scherzinger No Longer Speaks With Lewis Hamilton
Nicole Scherzinger appeared on ITV’s The Jonathan Ross Show and talked about her whirlwind romance with Lewis Hamilton, whom she is no longer in contact with (via E! News):
“I don’t see anything negative; I think it’s quite natural when people separate and go their own ways. You just have to be adult about it and just always wish the other person happiness, success, and love —like, sincerely — and I do. We don’t, like, talk.”
The singer even wished her ex-boyfriend good fortune in life, so it is evident that she did not hold any ill feelings towards him. Furthermore, Scherzinger explained how these tragic experiences made her even wiser over the years.
“I’ve probably matured a little later in relationships and [in] my life because I started at such a young age. I was in my first group when I was 18. I was always so focused on working so much, so I didn’t have much time for relationships. I feel like I was just able to get to experience things a little later after work… As you get older, you find more balance in life.”
She added that happiness and contentment in oneself should always be the priority before loving someone else.
