'Hamilton splits with long-time manager once more ahead of 2026 season'

The report comes from the Daily Mail, which claims the seven-time world champion and Haynes have gone their separate ways amicably for a second time, with the latter now set to take on a new role at Cadillac.

Hynes had been by the Briton’s side since the early stages of his career, eventually officially succeeding Simon Fuller in 2016 and holding the role until 2021, when Hamilton moved to a more structured, US-based management setup, appointing Penni Thow to oversee his interests through her firm, Copper.

That partnership lasted until December 2023, when Hamilton ended his relationship with Copper and brought Hynes back into his inner circle, having served as chief executive of Project 44 from 2015 to 2021 in the meantime.

Another rumour surrounding the seven-time world champion to emerge in recent hours suggests he may have started seeing Kardashian.

The Briton was reportedly spotted with the American model at Estelle Manor in Oxfordshire, with The Sun portraying the visit as a “romantic weekend getaway.” Sources cited by the British outlet claim the pair were keen to keep the meeting “very quiet.”

While Hamilton has known Kardashian for some time, this marks the first occasion they have been linked on a romantic level. Read the full story here.
