Miss World runner-up who was cheated by a McLaren ace
Lewis Hamilton’s mystery date at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival 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. However, she was mighty ticked off when she realised ol’ Cassanova was two-timing her with Nicole Sherzinger.
On her Pussycat Doll scorning, an irate Vivian told the News of the World:
Despite his huge wealth, I hate his lifestyle and feel sorry for him. There he is in Switzerland, where he has no friends, no family, just this amazing four-bedroom flat in the richest part of the city - but it’s simply big and empty.”
Ooh bitchy!

I makes complete sense to dump a Miss World runner up, Lewis saw her as competition. Isn’t he running for Miss World this year?
