Was Sofia Richie Caught Flirting with Lewis Hamilton? Scott Disick 'Went Ballistic'
Scott Disick and Sofia Richie have been dating for just months, but already, they've faced numerous rumors of jealousy and fights.
In the latest report, Disick, 34, is accused of going "ballistic" after catching his much younger 19-year-old girlfriend having an intimate conversation with Formula One race car driver Lewis Hamilton, who has been linked to a number of famous faces in past years.
On Jan. 4, Page Six claimed Disick and Richie were involved in a jealousy-fueled fight as they watched Hamilton play a $100K game of pool with “Greasy Bear” oil heir Brandon Davis in Aspen, Colorado. According to the report, Disick completely lost his cool when he saw that Richie and Hamilton were talking to each another during the poker match and demanded they leave the event right away.
Disick, Richie, and their friends were reportedly party hopping throughout the New Year's weekend, and when they arrived to the party where Hamilton and Davis were playing poker, Disick was said to have been in the dark about who would be in attendance. So he was reportedly caught completely off-guard when he saw his leading lady chatting with the driver.
“Sofia started talking to Lewis during the [pool] game,” a source explained. “When Scott saw them talking, he went ballistic, crazy. He was very jealous. He insisted they leave the party immediately.”
In response to the allegations, however, an attorney for Hamilton said that his client was not involved in any dispute with Disick and Richie and simply had a friendly conversation with the young model.
“Although Mr. Hamilton was in Aspen for the holiday, there was no jealousy, no fight, and no issue; rather, as Ms. Richie has herself confirmed, there was a perfectly friendly, polite exchange and any claim to the contrary is simply false,” the lawyer explained.
While Hamilton's attorney said that his client's encounter with Richie was nothing to write home about, the two celebrities were actually linked for several months in early 2017, prior to Richie's relationship debut with Disick months later.
According to Page Six, Disick and Richie also engaged in a public dispute last month while attending Art Basel in Miami. As an insider said at the time, Disick and Richie were “arguing and definitely in a fight” during one of the events, and when Disick attempted to kiss Richie, she "wasn't having it."
