George Russell has been dating his girlfriend Carmen Montero Mundt since 2020.

So, who is George Russell’s girlfriend? Here’s everything to know about Carmen Montero Mundt and her relationship with the race car driver.

She was born in Spain

Mundt was born in Spain in 1998 but lives in the United Kingdom.

In a Q&A she did on Instagram, she told her followers that she moved countries at the age of 18.

She went to the University of Westminster

Mundt attended the University of Westminster in London between 2018 and 2021, and she holds a bachelor’s degree in business management and finance, according to her LinkedIn profile.

She also has a diploma in asset allocation and risk management from the University of Geneva.

She met Russell in London

As part of a Q&A session she did on Instagram, Mundt shared that she met Russell in London through a mutual friend. The driver grew up in Wisbech, but moved to the city of Milton Keynes, 50 miles away from London, when he was 18, per BuckinghamshireLive.

They’ve been with each other since 2020 — Mundt first posted a photo of herself with Russell on Instagram in September of that year.

She works in investor relations

According to Mundt’s LinkedIn profile, she worked as an investor relations associate at Ruffer LLP in London from June 2022 to October 2023 following a front-office internship at the company between September and December of 2021.

Mundt previously held the role of associate consultant at Delta Capita for three months between January and March 2022.

“I always wanted to work in finance,” she explained on her Instagram Story. “My family struggled financially during the global crisis and that determined what I wanted to do from a very young age.”

At the end of 2023, Mundt announced on Instagram that she was going to go back to school in the new year.

She goes to public events with Russell

When they aren’t working, the couple often go out together. About a year after they started dating, in September 2021, Russell and Mundt attended the premiere of the James Bond movie No Time To Die at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

A few years later, in April 2023, they were pictured watching Novak Djokovic play at the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters in Monaco. The pair joined the cheering crowd, both wearing sunglasses.

Russell and Mundt stepped out again in July 2023 for another tennis match, this time at Wimbledon. At the event, the F1 driver conducted some interviews and posed for photos with his girlfriend.

She enjoys traveling with Russell

Russell and Mundt are often seen traveling together, and she also takes trips alone and with family or friends.

In February 2021, the couple enjoyed a romantic vacation on the Caribbean island of St. Barts. To mark the trip, Mundt shared a photo of herself on Instagram in front of the sea.

In August 2022, she shared another photo on the social media platform that showed her cuddling Russell in front of a pool with “Lucky me" in the caption. Five months later, she posted a photo of herself on Instagram on the beach with the caption “By the 🌊💛."

She supports Russell’s career

Mundt supports her boyfriend’s career on social media and often goes to watch him race.

When one of her Instagram followers asked her during a Q&A if it’s hard to balance work and supporting her boyfriend, she said watching Russell compete “takes my head away from work and I enjoy the sport and spending time with him."

“There’s nothing I enjoy more than G’s success," she added.

Russell has called her “incredibly supportive”

In an interview with Square Mile from April 2023, Russell opened up about his struggles as a young Formula 1 driver. When asked how he cares for his mental health, Russell described Mundt as “incredibly supportive.”

“Last year, for the first time, I experienced some fans booing me on a driver’s parade. I’d never experienced that before," Russell said. He added that Mundt and others help him in these moments. "I talk with the people who I trust and love the most and they offer a huge hand," Russell said.
