Kim Kardashian slammed for 'selfish' moment at Monaco GP as unseen footage emerges

Kim Kardashian has been branded "selfish" after an unseen moment from the Formula One Monaco Grand Prix emerged.

Kardashian made headlines after she attended this weekend's Grand Prix to support Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton, with the two widely reported to be in a relationship.

She walked into the paddock at Circuit de Monaco for qualifying on Saturday and was then in attendance on a balcony above the garages for the main event on Sunday, where Hamilton finished second to Kimi Antonelli.

Flanked by a huge security presence, the 45-year-old and her sister Khloe declined to give an interview to Martin Brundle on a typically chaotic Sky Sports gridwalk, instead only giving a small wave.

Kardashian was called "rude" and "disrespectful" for not giving a quick word, with Brundle stating, “Normally people have a quick chat with us".

The reality television star was in the paddock for the first time this weekend - albeit without a pass on - and generated a huge amount of publicity online for her presence.

But she also came in for criticism for another moment. A video circulated showing Kardashian grabbing a towel that was on display and using it to wipe her face.

However, the towel was actually meant for Antonelli as the box which it was on had F1 branding and the 'No.1' belonging to him after another win.

Kardashian seemingly had no idea that the towel was for but her actions riled up fans online.

Taking to Reddit, one user wrote: "How do you even just pick up a thing that’s clearly not yours, inconceivable."

A second said: "That’s the behaviour of someone who has the world revolve around them."

A third fumed: "She shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near the paddock and circuit. Disgusting, self-absorbed behavior."

A fourth added: "How could you possibly be in a place like that and think you could just pick up something obviously placed intentionally, and think you could just use it? The level of selfishness is unbelievable."

Kardashian was with the Ferrari crew during the podium ceremony and was seen sharing an embrace with her rumoured beau, who did appear to blow her a kiss.

Despite George Russell referring to the mega star as "Hamilton's girlfriend" but the seven-time world champion has still not confirmed Kardashian as being his partner.

However, he did express appreciation for the support she provided in an impressive race for Hamilton.

"Yeah, it's amazing to have her come this weekend and have her support," Hamilton said afterwards.

"My friends [in general]. It was an incredible turnout overall.

"I don't know what else to say. It's amazing to have good people around you and supporting you. And she does that for me every day."

Hamilton is currently second in the drivers' championship heading into the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona next weekend.
