Justin Bieber's ex-girlfriend, Cindy Kimberly, has opened up about her rumoured romance with Formula One star Lewis Hamilton.
Speaking with Europa Press, Kimberly downplayed claims of the pair's romance but said she never ruled out a friendship's possibility of love.
"For now we are friends, I do not rule out anyone in general," she told Europa Press.
"All friendships are open to love, my heart is 70 per cent occupied ... It is due to my cats and my mother."
The 20-year-old Spanish model was catapulted to modelling stardom when Bieber posted a picture of the then-unknown girl in 2015.
She now boasts 5.3 million followers on Instagram.
Meanwhile, Hamilton, who has previously dated Nicole Scherzinger, Rita Ora and Danielle Lloyd, is currently focused on winning his sixth Formula One world title.
Ahead of this weekend's Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Hamilton admitted to his past struggles with the track but remained optimistic.
"It will be interesting, and I'm going there with a mindset that I've got to try and improve my previous years' performance.
"I was fortunate to get the win there last year but I wasn't quick enough really through the weekend.
"So that's a place I expect Valtteri to be quick and I expect the Ferraris to be particularly quick."
