AceShowbiz - Pete Davidson preferred not to talk about his famous ex Kim Kardashian. During an appearance on Netflix's "Everybody's Live with John Mulaney", the 31-year-old star showed a visibly uncomfortable reaction when he was grilled by comedienne Luenell, 66, about his romantic history.
"I want to know the mystique. Now you've had Kim K," Luenell began, prompting Pete to blurt out a horrified "Oh God!" before trying to laugh it off. He covered his eyes and face with his hands, clearly perturbed by the topic.
Unfazed by his reaction, Luenell delved further, mentioning his history of dating other celebrities and his current relationship with supermodel Elsie Hewitt, who was previously linked to Jason Sudeikis.
To diffuse the situation, Pete agreed to Luenell's humorous suggestion of taking her out on a date, "If that's what it takes to stop this, yes!"
Pete's relationship with Kim Kardashian began in November 2021 after Kim made her hosting debut on "Saturday Night Live". The couple made public appearances at high-profiled events like Met Gala. He reportedly inked several tattoos dedicated to Kim, one referencing her legal aspirations that read, "My girl is a lawyer.
Kim reflected on their relationship during her show "The Kardashians", recalling their initial spark during the "SNL" kiss, adding that she was initially just "DTF" and not expecting a serious relationship. Yet, as their bond deepened, she found Pete to be "really thoughtful and humble and just so genuine," calling him "literally the best human being" she had ever met.
The relationship faced significant challenges, most notably from Kim's ex-husband Kanye West. Kanye took to social media to disparage Pete, nicknaming him "Skete," and even depicted a claymation version of Pete in a controversial music video where Pete was buried alive. Despite the harassment, Pete found humor in Kanye's antics, seeing them as absurd and almost flattering.
The couple amicably split in August 2022 after nine months, citing long-distance and different priorities. Since then, both have moved on with their lives. Pete has continued his star-studded dating streak and is currently seeing model Elsie Hewitt. Kim, on the other hand, was linked to NFL wide receiver Tom Brady and Odell Beckham Jr.. She recently hinted at a new romance during an episode of her family show.
