Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson Call It Quits After 9 Months

It’s the end of an era – albeit, a short one. Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian have split after a whirlwind May-December romance that surprised themselves and everyone else in the world. After only nine months of what looked to be a hot ‘n’ heavy pairing, an anonymous insider confirmed to People that the relationship is dead on arrival.

“Part of the reason they split was because of their busy schedules,” the source said. “They both travel all the time and it was hard.”

The dynamic duo first locked lips on Saturday Night Live in October of 2021 during a skit in which Kardashian played Jasmine and Davidson played Aladdin.

According to Kardashian, she made the first move. Soon, they texting like dirty teenagers and were seen holding hands at Knott’s Scary Farm. By February of 2022, Davidson was calling Kardashian his “girlfriend.”

The next month, Kardashian’s ex Kanye West was burying a Claymation version of his former wife’s new boy toy in a music video and Pete Davidson soon started sharing screenshots of text exchanges between himself and Ye in which the comedian asked the rapper to “calm down” and “grow the fuck up.”

The drama eventually subsided and Davidson got ink dedicated to his lady love. Then the couple took an intimate, sun-drenched vacay to Tahiti, where Kim Kardashian declared on Instagram that Davidson “passed the boyfriend test.” Fans got a glimpse of Davidson in a Season 2 preview of The Kardashians and were psyched to see the relationship unfold onscreen.

It seemed all was going well…until it wasn’t. We’re still in shock that the oddest celebrity rebound relationship ever is already over. (Please, don’t anyone alert Kanye.)

In honor of “Skeet” (or whatever you want to call them), we rounded up the best pics from the couple’s brief relationship.
