How Old Is Penelope Kyvat?
F1 racer Daniil Kvyat’s daughter, Penelope Kvyat, is 4 years old as she was born on July 27, 2019, in Russia. Coincidentally, she was born just one day before the 2019 Grand Prix.
Her birth sign is Leo and she has dual nationality status of Russia/Brazil owing to the fact that she was born in Russia to a Russian father and a Brazilian mother. It becomes quite necessary to state here that Daniil Kvyat had Penelope with a Brazilian columnist and model named Kelly Piquet.
Penelope, who is still a child at the time of this writing, is most likely in kindergarten and as time goes by, people may come to know more about her formal education background. She is currently living out her early childhood years with her mother in Brazil.
Penelope Kvyat’s Parents Are No Longer Together
The celebrity kid has had to experience the rather unfortunate scenario of a split family. Her parents, Daniil Kvyat and Kelly Piquet split up in December 2019, just a few months after she was born.
The media and the public got to know of their relationship in 2017 when Kelly Piquet chose to acknowledge it on one of her Instagram posts which she captioned ‘Love’ in Daniil Kvyat’s native language of Russian.
There is no public information about how the couple met or if they were already together as a couple prior to Kelly’s Instagram post. Judging by the timeline of the post though, Penelope’s parents were together for a little over 2 years. One thing that is not in doubt, however, is the fact that they were still a couple when they gave birth to her.
Penelope Kvyat Is The Only Child Of Her Parents
Penelope Kvyat doesn’t have the privilege of being a big sister to anyone yet . As previously stated, her parents’ relationship ended around 5 months after she was born and there was no way she could get even one sibling out of them.
That particular information is not set in stone though and Penelope Kvyat could yet become a big sister someday as her mother has already moved on from the break-up with her father and is currently in a relationship with Max Verstappen, another race car driver whom she officially became an item with in October 2020.
Penelope’s dad, on the other hand, is yet to dust off the cobwebs of his relationship with her mother but it is almost certain that he will eventually. When he does, there is also every possibility that he might have children with whichever woman he chooses to be romantically involved with.
She Has A Good Number Of Celebrity Attachments
The exposure that Penelope’s life has gotten in the media spotlight should not really come as a surprise to anyone, it was bound to happen at some point in her life because of the caliber of celebrities she has in her family.
For starters, her father is a Formula One race driver who has been active in motor sports since 2005. He was born Daniil Vyacheslavovich Kvyat on 26 April 1994 in Ufa, Russia. His father, Vyacheslav Kvyat, started working as a mechanic at Bashneft, a Novo-Ufan refinery before becoming the financial director of the company’s export division until 1996. Not much is known about his mother, Zulfiya Kvyat, as she was likely a homemaker.
Penelope Kvyat’s father has had some career highlights which include Championship titles in the 2012 Formula Renault 2.0 Alps. In 2013, he won the GP3 Series. He has appeared in a good number of tournaments including GP3 Series, FIA European, F3 Championship, Formula Renault 2.0 Alps, Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0, Formula Renault 2.0 NEC, Toyota Racing Series, Formula BMW Europe, and Formula BMW Pacific amongst others.
