From 'Sunshine' to Speculation: Lando Norris's Public Romantic Journey with Luisinha Oliveira and Margarida Corceiro

Lando Norris, the charismatic British Formula 1 driver for McLaren, has captivated fans not only with his prowess on the track but also with glimpses into his personal life, particularly his romantic endeavors. While he has largely maintained a private stance on his relationships, two connections have garnered significant public attention: his confirmed relationship with Luisinha Oliveira and his more recent, widely reported association with Margarida Corceiro.

Norris's romantic journey began to enter the public eye more distinctly in late 2021 when he reportedly started dating Portuguese model Luisinha Oliveira. Their relationship gained official public confirmation in January 2022, when Norris shared a heartfelt Instagram post featuring them kissing in Dubai, affectionately captioning it "My sunshine." This public declaration instantly made them one of the most talked-about couples in the F1 paddock.

Throughout their relationship, Luisinha Oliveira was a visible presence, often seen supporting Norris at various Grand Prix events around the world. Her appearances in the paddock and even a brief feature in Netflix's popular documentary series, Drive to Survive, further cemented their status as a public couple. The duo frequently shared moments of their life together on social media, showcasing a seemingly strong and affectionate bond that resonated with fans.

However, the relationship between Norris and Oliveira came to an end in September 2022. Norris himself announced the split through a now-deleted Instagram story, stating, > "After time and consideration, Luisa and myself have mutually decided to end our romantic relationship but remain good friends. I wish her the world and have so much respect for her and all she does as such an amazing and strong woman with nothing but kindness." The breakup, occurring after approximately eight months to a year of public dating, was met with sadness by their fans, who had admired their candid and supportive connection.

Following his split from Luisinha Oliveira, Norris largely kept his romantic life out of the spotlight, leading to much speculation. However, rumors began to circulate in April 2023 when he was first spotted with Portuguese model and actress Margarida Corceiro in Monaco. Corceiro had previously been in a high-profile relationship with Portuguese footballer João Félix, which ended in 2023, just prior to her being linked with Norris.

The sightings of Norris and Corceiro continued throughout 2023 and into 2024, with the pair attending various public events together, including the Monte-Carlo Masters tennis tournament and being seen at F1 race weekends. Despite the frequent public appearances and the media attention, neither Norris nor Corceiro ever officially confirmed their relationship status. This ambiguity fueled further speculation and kept fans guessing about the true nature of their connection.

In May 2024, Norris made headlines again during a Sky Sports F1 lie detector test where he was asked if he had a girlfriend. He replied "no," but then, when asked if he had "many girlfriends," he burst into laughter and responded "yes," a moment that further added to the mystery surrounding his dating life. Reports in August 2024 suggested that the relationship with Corceiro had "cooled off," with sources indicating Norris was "free and single."

However, the narrative took another turn in May 2025 when Margarida Corceiro was once again seen cheering on Norris at the Monaco Grand Prix qualifying, standing alongside his family. This appearance suggested a possible rekindling of their association or a continued close friendship, despite previous reports of them having gone their separate ways. The on-again, off-again nature of their public appearances has made it challenging for the media and fans to ascertain the definitive status of their relationship.

As of the most recent reports, Lando Norris continues to maintain a relatively private stance on his romantic life, often deflecting direct questions about his relationship status. While his past confirmed relationship with Luisinha Oliveira provided a clear timeline, his more recent association with Margarida Corceiro remains largely in the realm of speculation and public observation, with no official confirmation from the F1 star himself. Norris remains focused on his flourishing Formula 1 career, leaving his romantic future a subject of ongoing public interest and occasional, intriguing glimpses.
