Keeping Up With The Kardashians alum Kim Kardashian's romance with Saturday Night Live cast member, Pete Davidson, is heating up. Rumors that Kim and Pete are dating ignited after the two were spotted holding hands on a ride at Knott's Scary Farm. Pete also spent his 28th birthday with Kim, flying across the country to be with her. The SKIMS founder filed for divorce from Kanye West in February, and it looks like she's happy with her new beau. According to insiders, Pete and Kim are exclusive and aren't seeing anyone else.
Fans started noticing that their relationship was heating up after Pete was spotted with a bruise on the left side of his neck that looked like a hickey. Photos of Kim and Pete going out to dinner at Giorgio Baldi, an Italian restaurant in Santa Monica, recently emerged, showing the couple on a date night. The pair looked flirty in the photos, where they could be seen giggling. Even though this is definitely a surprising couple that most KUWTK fans didn't see coming, it seems like the two are happy in their new relationship. Especially now that Kim and Pete are going on dates in public, for their fans to see. According to TMZ, the duo also had brunch at the Beverly Hills Hotel over the Thanksgiving holiday.
Pete is apparently perfect for Kim post-divorce. "He's exactly what Kim needed after her divorce — someone to make her laugh and just have a fun time with," a source told People. "The end of her marriage was a very dark time for her and Pete has been the best antidote." Allegedly, Pete has been flying back and forth to L.A. more to be with Kim, and even refers to her as "my girl."
A source also told People about Kim and Pete's date night. They dished that Pete ordered a bunch of "pasta dishes" for the two to share, and that "they were very flirty" with each other. "You could tell that Kim had the best time. They very much acted like a couple," the source said. Although Pete and Kim are getting close, he has yet to meet Kim's children, North, Chicago, Saint and Psalm West. Allegedly, Kim is very attracted to Pete's dry sense of humor. According to her inner circle, she's been smiling and laughing way more with Pete than she has with any other guy she's dated. Especially after her divorce from Kanye, it makes sense that Kim would want to be in a lighter, more fun relationship. The KKW Beauty founder's friends also encourage and support her relationship with the comedian.
Kim and Pete might be one of the most random celebrity couples, but it seems like they're having a fun time dating each other. Even though fans of Keeping Up With The Kardashians can't watch the show anymore, they can still keep up with Kim's life through social media. Maybe fans will get to see Pete on her Instagram soon.
