Hamilton’s Cannes date was Miss World runner-up

Yesterday we told you about Lewis Hamilton’s mystery date at the Cannes Film Festival. Today we can reveal that the lady on his arm was 22-year-old beauty queen Vivian Burkhardt, a former Miss Grenada and Miss World contestant. The couple first met on the island through Hamilton’s family connections - Hamilton makes regular visits to Grenada to visit his grandfather, who returned to the island after moving to Britain in the 1950s. Burkhardt is currently studying for a degree in Natural Science at St George’s University in Grenada and wants to become a surgeon. Failing that, world peace will do.
