F1 legend David Coulthard appears on track kissing stunning Swedish model

Formula One ace David Coulthard appears to have his love life back on track after cosying up to Swedish model Sigrid Silversand.

The retired racing pro was spotted kissing his apparent new flame as they took a stroll in London this week.

Sigrid, dressed casually in black trousers, trainers and a long coat, appeared relaxed as the pair walked hand in hand and kissed several times.

Coulthard, 50, split from his wife Karen Minier, 48, over a year ago and has since sparked a new romance with the 27-year-old stunner.

The sports commentator met his wife Karen in 2005 when she was covering the Grand Prix for the French TV channel, TF1. Their son, Dayton, was born in 2008.

At the time, Coulthard described the birth as ‘the start of a fantastic period’ in his life and said ‘winning 13 races seems completely insignificant in comparison’.

But speculation surrounding their split was sparked when the ex-McLaren and Red Bull star was pictured without wearing his wedding ring since January last year.

A source told MailOnline: "David split with his wife over a year ago and Sigrid has been introduced to the whole family, including his son, and all is harmonious."

The pair were last pictured in public at Wimbledon on a double date with close friends Amanda Holden and her husband Chris Hughes on the French Riviera in July 2020.

Coulthard was best man at Hughes’ wedding to the Britain’s Got Talent judge in 2008.

Amanda took to Instagram to share a snapshot taken inside her home last summer as she tuned in to watch the Formula One.

Amanda joked in the caption: "Getting live commentary in my kitchen over this #Grandprix nightmare for @redbullracing looks like @pirelli isn't having a 'GoodYear' ( that's a joke for anyone that understands about tires!)"

Fans were quick to respond with messages of devotion for David: "Silver fox!", "Lucky lady!" and "Oh he is sexy!"
