Nicole Scherzinger fears for Lewis Hamilton

Nicole Scherzinger fears for her boyfriend Lewis Hamilton’s life when he competes in Formula 1 races.

The 36-year-old singer has admitted she often worries about the star’s safety when he drives for Mercedes, and she is even more concerned for him after F1 driver Jules Bianchi, 25, was left in a ”critical” state following a horrific crash at the Japanese Grand Prix earlier this month.

She told the Daily Star newspaper: ”It’s worrying and taken everybody aback. It put things into perspective and my prayers are with Jules.

”God bless him. I know Lewis feels the same.”

Nicole and Lewis, 29, have been involved in an on/off relationship since 2007 and reconciled earlier this year, but the raven-haired beauty admitted she won’t be putting pressure on him to pop the question anytime soon.

She told Metro newspaper: ”I don’t put any pressure on anything. For me, timing is everything. I have a strong faith. And if you ask if my mom’s putting pressure on us to get married, no – because my mom is feeling as strong a faith as me.”

The star – who previously dated ‘America’s Got Talent’ host Nick Cannon and was romantically linked to comedian Dane Cook – has poured her heart out about her split from Lewis last year in her latest album ‘Big Fat Lie’ and admits the album also features tracks about other former lovers.

She added: ”I wrote the majority of this album last year when I was going through my break-up. But it’s about past relationships as well.”
