Tuesday 19 May at 09:54 : May 19 (GMM) Wedding bells may be in reigning world champion Lewis Hamilton's near future

The McLaren driver seems unlikely to be able to defend his drivers' crown, but his relationship with American pop group Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger is moving up a gear

Scherzinger, who turns 31 next month, has this week been quoted by an entertainment news source as admitting that engagement for her and Briton Hamilton, 24, may be the next step

"Would I get married? For sure and, yeah, the Dolls can be the bridesmaids. But I have to get engaged first. Late July is looking good," she told Bang Media
