Kim Kardashian bumps into ex Pete Davidson at Met Gala
The two reportedly dated throughout late 2021.
Kim Kardashian bumped into her ex-boyfriend Pete Davison at the 2023 Met Gala. The former couple seems to be on good terms as they look happy to see each other.
The two were photographed chatting alongside Usher on Monday night. The reconnection comes just nine months after their breakup.
The pair attended the Met Gala together just a year prior when Kardashian wore the infamous Marilyn Monroe dress, which she wore decades earlier to sing then-president John F. Kennedy Happy Birthday.
Relationship History
Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson were romantically linked in late 2021 after they were seen spending time together in public. The rumors began after Kardashian filed for divorce from her estranged husband, rapper Kanye West, in February 2021.
Davidson had also recently broken up with his girlfriend, actress Margaret Qualley. However, the two called it quits after 9 months of dating. Their breakup was reportedly due to the difficulties of long-distance dating and their busy schedules.
The couple’s romance began after a kiss on Saturday Night Live in October 2021 and continued with double dates and red-carpet appearances. Despite their split, they reportedly remain in contact, although some sources say they are not speaking.
Feud with Kanye West
The two had made headlines throughout their relationships for their PDA-filled trips to tropical locations and their appearances together on SNL and Kardashian’s reality show. Their public relationship started a feud between Davidson and Kardashian’s ex-husband, Kanye West.
West and Davidson have publicly feuded since October 2021, following Kanye’s divorce from Kim Kardashian. Kanye was disappointed with Davidson after the comedian publicly expressed his disappointment over Kanye’s 2018 SNL performance, where he wore a “Make America Great Again” hat.
Kanye continued to shade Pete Davidson as his romance with Kim Kardashian heated up. The drama continued when West released ‘Eazy’, which features a line where West raps about beating up Davidson.
Their rival eventually fizzled out as did Davidson’s relationship with Kardashian.
