Vacation Photo Sparks Romance Rumors
Formula One driver Lance Stroll has been spotted holidaying with Israeli model and actress Yael Shelbia, 23, who was crowned โthe most beautiful woman in the worldโ in 2021. A leaked image showed the Aston Martin star in a light blue t-shirt and cap, while Shelbia wore a floral bikini and white trousers. The picture quickly went viral after being shared by Instagram account @f1gossipofficial, prompting fans to gush over her looks.
Some commenters speculated the snap was taken in Tel Aviv, while others were left stunned by Shelbiaโs beauty. The sighting has fueled speculation that she could be Formula Oneโs newest WAG.
From Small-Town Roots To Global Fame
Shelbia rose to prominence after ranking on TC Candlerโs โ100 Most Beautiful Facesโ list for several years before winning the title in 2021. She has fronted campaigns for Kim Kardashianโs KKW Beauty, Kylie Jennerโs skincare range, and starred alongside Lionel Messi in ads for FINNEY mobile.
The model says the accolade brought both praise and online trolling, but she focuses on the positives. She began modeling at 16 after a local photographer discovered her on Instagram. At the time of winning, she was serving in the Israeli Air Force.
High-Profile Romances And Links To Billionaires
Raised in a large Orthodox Jewish family in northern Israel, Shelbia previously dated billionaire Brandon Korff, heir to the Paramount empire. Stroll, meanwhile, is the son of Aston Martin F1 team owner Lawrence Stroll, whose fortune is estimated at ยฃ3 billion. His last known relationship was with model Sara Pagliaroli.
A Tough Season For Stroll On The Track
While romance rumors swirl, Strollโs Formula One season has been rocky. The Canadian driver has not added to his three career podium finishes and missed the Spanish Grand Prix in June after a hand and wrist injury. Reports claimed the injury followed a heated outburst in the team garage, but the team denied a direct link.
Stroll has also vented frustration over his car, calling it the โworst piece of s*** Iโve ever driven.โ Former Ferrari manager Gino Rosato recently defended him on the Pitstop podcast, pointing out that nearly all drivers enter the sport with financial backing or sponsorship.
Spotlight On The Paddockโs Possible New Couple
Neither Stroll nor Shelbia has commented on the leaked holiday photo, but the pairing has already caught the attention of Formula One fans worldwide. With Stroll fighting for form on track and Shelbia continuing her rise in the fashion world, the rumored romance adds fresh intrigue to the F1 paddock.
