The Spanish pilot and his partner, discreet as always, welcome 2025 in an idyllic setting
The couple shares several pictures of their idyllic vacation on Instagram
During the summer of 2023, the reason behind Carlos Sainz Jr’s smile beyond Formula 1 was revealed. It was none other than the Scottish model Rebecca Donaldson, with whom all kinds of rumors about a possible romantic relationship had been circulating for several weeks.
The pilot acknowledged that he was publicly in a relationship during an interview that same year with fellow F1 driver Charles Leclerc. Responding to a question about who he would have a “quick marriage” with in Las Vegas, he stated that it would be with his “current girlfriend.”
Carlos Sainz Jr started his relationship with Rebecca Donaldson in 2023
More than a year into the relationship, which is known to be ongoing due to this statement and some images that have been captured of the couple in circuits; because they have never posed together. Both are extremely guarded about their private life, and although they have shared images separately from vacations and events, they are never seen together on social media.
This is how it has been known that the couple welcomed 2025 in the Maldives. A Christmas where they have chosen to leave the snow and the cold aside, preferring the sun and the crystal-clear waters for their first days of 2025.
The pilot shared some images of this trip, presenting it to his followers as a disconnecting journey that had helped him to fully recharge and be ready again for the new season’s training.
These days, the couple has been staying at the luxurious Joali Being resort, located on the secluded island of Bodufushi in the Raa Atoll. A paradise nestled between crystal clear lagoons in pristine beaches facing the Raa Atoll. A unique and ideal setting for disconnecting the mind and body in an exquisite environment; the couple has cycled, swam in the crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean, played tennis…
Activities in which he appears alone, but he was not alone. His girlfriend, Rebecca, was just a few steps away, as shown by the model on his personal Instagram account, sharing similar images on the social network.
“New year, new intentions. Starting off 2025 with wellness, balance, and a renewed spirit. Here’s to another year of growth, gratitude, and all the magic ahead,” writes the model.
The couple has had a dream vacation, as shown in these images, but as always, they have once again demonstrated their extreme discretion when it comes to showing affection in public or sharing a picture together.
A very discreet couple
The model is the second known partner of the Formula 1 driver, after ending his relationship with the Madrid journalist Isabel Hernáez after more than seven years together. Rebecca Donaldson, who at 17 won the Face of 2011 modeling contest, which led her to covers of magazines like Vogue or Elle; was previously linked to Scott Disick, the former partner of Kourtney Kardashian.
