Kendall Jenner is a girl’s girl and barely a day goes by without the reality star-turned-supermodel being snapped out and about with one of her bezzies.
But the 19 year old really set tongues wagging after she was spotted out and about in New York with Lewis Hamilton - and predictably the photos have sparked dating rumours.
It’s the first time the pair have been seen together they partied at the after party for Drake’s headline appearance at Wireless festival in June.
A month earlier, Kendall had joined Lewis on his yacht in Monaco during the Grand Prix weekend. During her trip to the south of France, she and Gigi Hagid were also present to witness the racing driver finish third place in the race, with a supportive Kendall wearing Lewis’ chain as she watched with the Mercedes Benz team.
At the time, it was reported that Kendall’s mother Kris was delighted at the budding friendship and had set her hopes on a romance blossoming.
A source told The Sun: "She really wants Kendall to date him. Lewis and Kris have become friendly in recent months and she thinks he's perfect for her daughter. Kendall usually goes for bad boys like Chris Brown and Justin Bieber so Lewis could be a good influence on her."
But the momager's hopes were dashed after a spark failed to ignite between the pair and they didn’t meet up again until yesterday. Kendall joined Lewis and his friend for an afternoon in the Big Apple, dressing down for the occasion in a pair of high-waisted white trousers and a mustard-coloured polo neck.
In an effort to play down any rumours of a new romance, Lewis kept a few steps behind his lunch date. Kris shouldn’t get her hopes up again though, as Lewis revealed just a couple of days ago that he was delighted to be single.
