Rumors abound about Shakira's dating life while she was in London as she was seen spending time with NBA star Jimmy Butler of the Miami Heat... and F1 racer Lewis Hamilton on a different night.

A source spoke with US Magazine and stated, "They have been out a few times, but things are very new and it's too early to tell if there's long-term potential there." The source also talked about their 13-year age difference, telling the magazine that it "doesn't bother" Shakira, 46, "whatsoever."

The source also added, "Jimmy makes Shakira smile, and she feels happy spending time with him."

As it turns out, Shakira's kids, Sasha and Milan, are very big Jimmy Butler fans, with their dad, retired Spanish soccer star Gerard Pique, also being a big fan of the NBA star.

As for Shakira, the insider revealed that she and the Miami Heat star "have only known each other for a short while, and just recently started following each other on social media." Rumors started when the Colombian shared a video of herself cheering for the Miami Heat during their playoff game. Butler responded by liking a video of her acoustic performance via Instagram.

Shakira Also Seen Partying With Lewis Hamilton in London

While there are rumors surrounding Shakira and Jimmy Butler, the "Hips Don't Lie" singer is also rumored to be dating Mercedes race car driver Lewis Hamilton, whom she was also spotted with while she was in London.

Shakira was spotted at Silverstone, watching the F1 British Grand Prix last week. Hamilton finished third in that race and had an after-party in London, which the Colombian also attended. This fueled the Lewis Hamilton dating rumors even more.

After the party, she and the British racing legend were also spotted together at celebrity hot spot Tape London and were described as partying into the early hours of Monday morning, according to The Mirror.

The "Waka Waka" singer reportedly left the club at around 3:30 am, though Hamilton stayed out later. He returned to his hotel at around 6 am. Shakira has been seen cheering on the Brit not just at Silverstone, but also at the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona and during the Miami Grand Prix.

Shakira Flaunts Fashion Sense While in London

The Lewis Hamilton party was not the only party that Shakira attended while in the British capital, as she also attended the British Vogue x Self Portrait Summer Party on Thursday. However, during this party, she showed more of her fashionista side.

According to Geo News, she was spotted at the party, which was held at the Chiltern Firehouse, while wearing a sheer halter neck lace top that showed her toned abs. She also paired it with satin trousers and black platform heels that elevated her height.

However, she was not spotted with any of the guys that she is rumored to be dating, as she was accompanied by Emily Ratajkowski, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, and Rita Ora. The party happened after she was spotted with Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler at Novikov Restaurant & Bar in London.
