Kim Kardashian's Classless Snub at Monaco Grand Prix: Iconic Reporter Ignored

Kim Kardashian's blatant disregard for an iconic reporter at the Monaco Grand Prix 2026 has sparked outrage, with many labeling her behavior as "rude."

Sky Sports reporter Martin Brundle, known for his engaging grid walk interviews, approached Kardashian and her sister Khloé Kardashian for a quick chat before the race. Brundle asked Kim how she was doing, but she turned away, ignoring him completely, as captured in a video circulating online.

A man, likely an F1 employee, whispered to Kardashian while Brundle urged someone not to "push" him. Brundle pressed on, asking if Kim was enjoying F1, but she merely waved and offered no response.

The "All's Fair" actress and her sister then walked off with their entourage, leaving Brundle visibly disappointed as he addressed his viewers, stating, "So, we’re not talking today."

Fans took to social media to express their disapproval of Kim's actions during the awkward encounter. One user tweeted, "How rude was Kim Kardashian? Brundle there to ask questions and she looks at some dude to see if Brundle was worth talking to. Poor. #F1 #Monaco."

Another user chimed in, criticizing celebrities who refuse to engage during grid walks: "Some 'celebrities' need to get a grip when on the grid walk for the F1; they should be kicked off if they don’t want to chat. Kim Kardashian take note. Martin Brundle his funny self as usual lol."

A third critic stated, "Kim Kardashian is not too good to talk to Martin Brundle. What a complete lack of class."

One more user expressed disdain for Kardashian's behavior: "Didn’t we just know Kim Kardashian would refuse to speak to Martin Brundle? Famous for absolutely nothing if any import, can’t carry an umbrella herself & she ignores Martin when talented sports persons & international actors embrace him. She has no place on our grid."

Despite the backlash, some fans defended Kim's choice not to engage with Brundle. One supporter tweeted, "There’s never been an expectation WAGS will take interviews; no matter how audacious Brundle is or how famous Kim is, nobody is entitled to force the drivers' loved ones onto camera. Let's keep it that way."

Another user suggested that Brundle had ulterior motives: "Brundle and his Lewis [Hamilton] hate agenda did this on purpose btw. He knew Kim didn’t want to speak. Security was there blocking. He honors it with everyone else, but with her he went out of his way to create a drama? Nasty nasty man."

A third defender remarked, "People always find something on people they want to find about. Was she even aware of it? It literally looks like she was not."

Page Six reached out to Kim’s representative for comment but did not receive an immediate response.
