Rihanna has allegedly banned British Formula 1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton from communicating with ex-girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger because she is worried ”that a spark may still linger” between them.
The 27-year-old singer, who has been linked to the Hertfordshire-born racer since July, has reportedly demanded he completely ”cut contact” with his ex-girlfriend if he wants to continue dating her.
A source has said: ”Nicole was constantly texting Lewis and it annoyed Rihanna. So she told him that if he doesn’t cut contact, it’s over.”
The 30-year-old Brit split from former Pussycat Dolls singer Scherzinger, 37, in February after seven years of on/off dating and she is rumoured to now be dating Ed Sheeran, twelve years her junior at 25.
But the insider told InTouch magazine: ”Rihanna’s worried that a spark may still linger. She wants to ensure she’s the woman in Lewis’ life.”
Despite her concerns, Rihanna’s ”second mum” approves of her new relationship. Sharon Bellamy Thompson – who helped raise the singer as a child, babysitting her and driving her to school – recently said: ”They would have beautiful babies. As long as this man makes her happy, he’s got my approval. You’ve got to love his British charm. ”I saw her at the carnival [in Barbados] and Lewis is so handsome.”
