By Matt, Editor at Weddings Hub. I have covered UK and European celebrity weddings since 2018, including the Formula 1 paddock’s domestic life for the past three seasons. Sources include Monaco Tribune, Monaco Life, the drivers’ verified social media accounts, Hello!, ESPN F1 and Formula1.com. This page is updated after each race weekend.

Formula 1 is the highest-profile sport in the world right now. A 24-race calendar. Netflix documentaries. Fashion week crossovers. The paddock’s domestic lives have never attracted more UK attention. In 2026, the story isn’t just who is fastest on track. It is also who got married, who got engaged and whose relationship survived a season of international travel. Below is the full tracker.

Charles Leclerc and Alexandra Saint Mleux — married February 2026

Charles Leclerc and Alexandra Saint Mleux are the headline F1 couple of 2026. The Ferrari driver and the Italian-born art historian married on 28 February 2026 at the Mairie de Monaco. The ceremony was strictly family and close friends. No serving F1 drivers were publicly confirmed in attendance.

Alexandra wore a Paolo Sebastian French Chantilly lace mermaid gown. Charles wore a cashmere Brunello Cucinelli suit in eggshell white. The couple drove away from the ceremony in a 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa, a car with a collector value of approximately £9 million.

A second celebration is planned for 2027. Charles wrote on Instagram that “part 2 will be next year with all of our close ones,” signalling a larger party with the wider F1 paddock circle. Alexandra is an École du Louvre alumna who worked at the Hôtel des Ventes de Monte-Carlo auction house before becoming one of the most-followed F1 partners in the sport.

George Russell and Carmen Mundt — engaged August 2026

George Russell and Carmen Montero Mundt announced their engagement on 9 August 2026. Russell shared photos on Instagram with a ring emoji and a heart. Carmen showed her ring in the pictures. Formula1.com reported that he proposed on a beach, at a candlelit dinner, during the summer break.

The couple met through a mutual friend in London in early 2020. Russell was racing for Williams at the time. Carmen was born in Spain and moved to London at 18 to study. She graduated in business management and finance from the University of Westminster. She has worked in investment. The couple now live in Monaco.

No wedding date or venue has been announced. Russell races for Mercedes, and the season runs from March into December. That leaves few windows for a large wedding. We will update this page when a date is confirmed.

Max Verstappen and Kelly Piquet — together, with daughter Lily

Max Verstappen and Kelly Piquet have been together since 2020. Kelly is the daughter of Brazilian three-time F1 world champion Nelson Piquet. She is a model and entrepreneur in her own right. Their daughter, Lily, was born in early May 2025, just before the Miami Grand Prix.

Verstappen and Piquet have not announced an engagement or wedding date. Kelly is a regular presence at grands prix in Europe and in Brazil, where her family connections to the sport go back decades.

She is also the sister of former Formula 2 driver Pedro Piquet. The cross-generational motorsport connection has given the Verstappen-Piquet partnership a very different public dynamic from the newer couples on the paddock.

Pierre Gasly and Kika Cerqueira Gomes — together since 2022

Pierre Gasly is not married. He has been in a relationship with Portuguese model Francisca “Kika” Cerqueira Gomes since 2022. No engagement has been announced. GPFans still described the couple as dating in August 2026.

Kika was born in Porto in 2003. She models for brands including Carolina Herrera. Portuguese sports paper A Bola reported in December 2025 that the couple live together in Milan.

Gasly races for Alpine in 2026.

Valtteri Bottas and Tiffany Cromwell — together since 2020

Valtteri Bottas has not married. He and Australian cyclist Tiffany Cromwell have been together since early 2020. No engagement has been announced. Cosmopolitan still described Cromwell as his girlfriend in October 2026.

Cromwell has ridden for Australia at the Olympic Games. PlanetF1 reported that the couple bought a vineyard in South Australia in late 2025. They share a love of cycling and often post rides together.

Bottas is back on the F1 grid in 2026 with the new Cadillac team. Cadillac confirmed him alongside Sergio Pérez in August 2025. He lost his Sauber seat at the end of 2024 and spent 2025 as Mercedes’ reserve driver.

Lando Norris — private as of May 2026

Lando Norris won the 2025 world championship with McLaren. He dated Portuguese model and actor Margarida Corceiro from 2023. They reportedly split in 2024 and reunited in 2025. In February 2026, The Sun reported that the couple had split again.

Neither Norris nor Corceiro has commented publicly. No new relationship has been confirmed as of October 2026. His social media output focuses on racing, McLaren content and gaming.

Lewis Hamilton — linked to Kim Kardashian

Lewis Hamilton joined Ferrari from Mercedes for the 2025 season. 2026 is his second year with the team. He has been linked with Kim Kardashian since late 2025. She attended the Monaco Grand Prix in June 2026, and Hamilton thanked her for her support.

In July 2026, Hamilton shared photos of the pair on Instagram for the first time. Neither has announced an engagement. His past relationships include singer Nicole Scherzinger, which ended in 2015.

Carlos Sainz — with Rebecca Donaldson

Carlos Sainz moved to Williams for 2025 after leaving Ferrari. He has been in a relationship with Scottish model Rebecca Donaldson since 2023. He has not made any engagement or wedding announcement as of October 2026.

Fernando Alonso and Aston Martin 2026

Fernando Alonso continues to race for Aston Martin. He and his partner, TV presenter Melissa Jiménez, welcomed their first child in March 2026. Alonso called it “a very happy and special moment”.

What does the 2026 paddock tell us about celebrity weddings?

The F1 paddock in 2026 is a useful snapshot of how high-earning professionals in their late twenties handle relationships under global scrutiny. Leclerc married in February. Russell got engaged in August. Several others are in long-term relationships, and two drivers have become fathers since 2025. The pattern broadly matches UK data from the Hitched 2026 report: the average age at first marriage for men in England and Wales is now 32.4 years. Leclerc and Russell both reached their milestones in their late twenties, below that national average.

It also shows a shift away from the model-only dating stereotype. Alexandra Saint Mleux is an art historian and former auction-house worker. Tiffany Cromwell is an Olympic cyclist. Carmen Mundt has a finance background. The era of drivers exclusively dating fashion models is changing, and the 2026 grid reflects that.

For UK couples inspired by F1 wedding aesthetics, our wedding colour schemes guide covers the monochrome palettes and Italian-summer tones that define the Leclerc-Saint Mleux look. Our groom suit guide breaks down how to get the Brunello Cucinelli look at UK price points.
