Lewis Hamilton Says There Should Be A Limit On How Much Money People Make In Resurfaced Interview
One of the most buzzed-about celebrity couples right now is the reality star and UK driver, who have recently captured people's attention since taking their relationship public after a few weeks of keeping things under wraps.
Attending races, dinners, and other nice events together, it looks like the couple is doing quite well, and many social media users see the two of them being together for a long time. However, a 2023 interview with the racer is resurfacing, as he began complaining about a class of people that his new girlfriend belongs to.
In 2023, Lewis sat down for an interview on the On Purpose podcast hosted by Jay Shetty. During their discussion, he began talking about wealth gaps and shared his feelings on the wealthy 1%.
"You shouldn't be able to have billions," he said during the resurfaced podcast episode. "I think there should be a limit to how much you can have because there's enough to go around for everyone."
Social Media Users Call Out Lewis For Dating Kim Kardashian & More After His Comments Go Viral
It didn't take long for the resurfaced interview to spread like wildfire on social media platforms, as when the F1 driver spoke about billionaires, he didn't know at the time that he'd enter a relationship with one of the most famous billionaires on the planet.
According to Forbes, the SKIMS founder is worth about $2B, and she's been a notoriously wealthy person for quite some time. Additionally, Lewis is no stranger to luxury himself, as he reportedly maintains a tax residency in Monaco, an area that does not collect personal income or wealth and property taxes from residents.
Therefore, when people heard his comments about how there shouldn't be multi-billionaires and that wealth should be capped, they called him out online.
"Love Hamilton, but when you have multiple homes, a jet, and a helicopter, perhaps this is one conversation you should gracefully sit out?" asked an Instagram user.
"Gotta love when the wealthy talk to the rest of us about the disparity between the wealthy and the poor," wrote another.
"But he's dating a billionaire," added another.
One user wrote, "He usually doesn't uphold his beliefs when it comes to Kim, though," as another called him "the millionaire who lives in a tax-free Monaco, currently dating the billionaire daughter of a billionaire family."
"Completely out of touch," they continued.
