Can you imagine a modern-day Lewis Hamilton having kids? What if, alongside Roscoe, little Hamilton Jrs also visited the paddock while everyone hyped them to be future world champions like their father? It turns out there was one longtime girlfriend of Hamilton willing to offer him all those things.

American artist Nicole Scherzinger is widely acclaimed for her work with the Pussycat Dolls. To F1 fans, she is widely known for being Hamilton’s girlfriend for almost 8 years, visiting paddocks to celebrate with him often.

In a very old interview, Scherzinger had revealed what she wanted with the driver. She said, “I’m really traditional – I’d want to be married before we have kids and that’s something we’ll hopefully be doing soon. Lewis is always telling me that I’d be a really good mom and I know he’d be a great dad. I love kids and I’m feeling broody.”

Many fans would agree with the singer’s claim of Hamilton potentially being a great dad. The 37-year-old surely enjoys his time with kids and is even often spotted hanging out with his nephew and nieces.

But Hamilton’s hefty schedule as a racing driver never allowed him serious amounts of time with Scherzinger. As a result of heavy traveling, distance and not being able to find the right balance, the couple parted ways.

Hamilton, in an interview, had revealed how his cars meant the most to him in his life. The driver clearly prioritized his career and once hinted, “My cars are my babies. ‘I used to say, when I had a girlfriend, “I’m taking one of the girls out, so you can come if you want, but you come second when it comes to the cars”.’

Clearly, the couple had different expectations from each other, and the driver picked F1 as his life. Ultimately, he went on to win seven titles, and as many believe, might pick his eighth too at some point.
