“I definitely jumped into another relationship”: Kim Kardashian Confesses She Used Pete Davidson to Heal Herself After Kanye West Drama
Kim Kardashian has gone through endless rough times since her split with her now ex-husband, Kanye West. It took such a toll on her that she even had moments of self-doubt about who would ever date her. She was unsure if anyone would be interested in dating her after all the drama with her divorce from Kanye West.
Even after her hopes were shattered to the core, the SKIMS boss was hopeful to find love again. Though she was in a relationship with the Saturday Night Live star, Pete Davidson, Kim K has recently accepted that it would have been better to accept her problems and heal rather than engage in another relationship to overcome the previous.
The Decline of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s Marriage
KimYe was once so many people’s relationship goals. When Kim Kardashian and Kanye West first embarked on their dating journey, they seemed like a match made in heaven. After knowing each other for years and a decade-long friendship, the two exchanged vows and fans witnessed their love story blossom and unfold on Keeping Up With the Kardashians. But apparently, the forever element was missing in their marriage.
The two filed for divorce in 2021, but trouble in their marriage began years earlier. West’s string of erratic behavior in 2016 put a serious strain on their relationship, compounded by the rapper’s numerous controversial remarks.
Amid a series of stressful events for the couple, Kardashian and West began receiving individual therapy. The indications got clearer when in May 2017, Kardashian attended the Met Gala without her husband by her side. Despite the drama surrounding her divorce from West, Kardashian said she still wants her children around him.
Kim Kardashian Calls Her Relationship With Pete Davidson An Escape Route
In the latest episode of Hulu’s The Kardashians, Kim K admitted that her short romantic stint with now ex-boyfriend Pete Davidson was an escape route for the actress to avoid the spiraling drama with ex-husband Kayne West, a by-product of their high-profile and messy divorce.
The 42-year-old star shared with her sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner, “I definitely jumped into another relationship so fast.” She continued, “It got my mind away from, like, stuff, and that’s not a way to, like, run from things.”
The soon-to-be lawyer told her sisters that “it’s better” to “feel, deal, heal.” Kardashian’s short-lived romance with the comedian came back into the discussion as she discussed the difficulties of co-parenting with Ye.
Kim K and Kanye West share four kids: North, 10, Saint, 7, Chicago, 5, and Psalm, 4. Following their glitzy divorce, West was back in the headlines when he accused Kim K on the internet of keeping him away from their children and also questioned her parenting skills.
