Pete Davidson Confirms Relationship With Kim Kardashian Amid Kanye West Drama

Comedian Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian have been in news for their romance and the drama involving the reality TV star's estranged husband Kanye West. But it was just recently that Davidson called Kardashian his "girlfriend" publicly.

The "Saturday Night Live" star opened up about living life in the spotlight during an appearance on "PEOPLE (The TV Show!)." The 28-year-old said that he doesn’t have Instagram or Twitter, so, most of his daily life is "getting into cars and showing up to a set." The comedian shared that when he is on leave, he either hangs out with his friends or "chill with my girlfriend inside. So I don't do much." He was referring to Kardashian, 41, with the title.

The couple first made headlines last October when she hosted an episode of "Saturday Night Live" and they shared an onscreen kiss. During the show, they performed multiple skits together, including a sexually suggestive "Aladdin" skit, according to Fox News. Later that month, they were clicked holding hands on a roller coaster ride at an amusement park in California. Since then, the two have been spotted together on numerous occasions, including Davidson's birthday in November. They also had a romantic dinner and a movie date in New York last December.

Last month, Davidson and Kardashian enjoyed a post-New Year's vacation in the Bahamas where they were photographed in good spirits. In January, a source said that Kadashian's romance with Davidson is just what she needs amid her divorce from West. After nearly seven years of marriage, she filed for divorce from the rapper in February 2021. The source said at the time that Davidson makes Kardashian laugh and "he treats her really well."

Davidson and Kardashian's relationship has been complicated by West, who recently threatened to "beat Pete Davidson's a**" on his new track, "Easy," reported Daily Mail. West, who shares children -- North, 8, Saint, 6, Chicago, 3 and Psalm, 2, with Kardashian, has been lashing out at her parenting tactics for weeks. Most recently he criticized her for allowing North to use TikTok without his permission. He also claimed that he was barred from knowing the location and time of Chicago's birthday bash.
