Lewis Hamilton continues to spark romantic rumors in the UK countryside after viral news of his new relationship with Kim Kardashian. And while the two stars have kept their connection private, the athlete continues to update his fans on his personal life, following the heartbreaking passing of his dog in 2025.
Lewis shared photos of his latest moments in January, including a series of adorable pics with a litter of white puppies.
Fans immediately asked if he had adopted a new pup. “Is that your new puppy, the one with the grey eye patch?” one person commented, while someone else wrote, “Aww Lewis, did you get a new Pup?”

Roscoe, Hamilton’s cherished 12-year-old bulldog, passed away in September 2025 after a courageous battle with pneumonia. The loss was deeply personal for the F1 star, who had kept fans updated throughout Roscoe’s illness.

Roscoe had often been seen by Hamilton’s side, on the podium, at races, and even starring in commercials. His popularity was such that Hamilton created an Instagram account for him, which still boasts 1.4 million followers.

“Although it was so hard, having him was one of the most beautiful parts of life, to love so deeply and to be loved in return.”
Roscoe had first been adopted in 2013, the same year Hamilton joined Mercedes AMG F1. From walking beside Hamilton on red carpets to appearing in awards ceremonies like the 2014 Sports Personality of the Year, Roscoe became a fixture in the F1 world and in fans’ hearts.

While fans eagerly speculate about the new litter in Hamilton’s Instagram post, the seven-time champion has not revealed whether he has chosen to bring a new furry friend into his life. Given his long-standing affection for dogs, the idea seems almost inevitable.
