“It stressed him out, especially after Kim”: Kim Kardashian’s Relationship Had a Negative Impact on Pete Davidson’s Romance With Emily Ratajkowski?
There have been a lot of ups and downs for Pete Davidson this year. His relationship with American socialite Kim Kardashian began early this year but ended in August. After a few months, he began dating another industry’s charm, Emily Ratajkowski. Despite dating for over a month, the Gone Girl actress and the Saturday Night Live alum reportedly split recently. Kim Kardashian’s love was too strong for the SNL comedian to overcome, so he was not prepared to commit to another woman on a serious level so soon.
The Kardashians star’s past relationship pushed him into another zone where he had trouble making himself comfortable with Emily Ratajkowski. However, it is reported that the 29-year-old isn’t bothered by the fact that his brief relationship with the Gone Girl actress has already ended. Pete Davidson is reportedly doing fine after their split, and the couple moved their ties into the friend zone.
Pete Davidson Is Being Advised To Choose The Right Partner
There was a quick rift between Pete Davidson and Emily Ratajkowski after just a few weeks. The model-turned-author was first linked to Davidson in November after splitting with her husband, Sebastian Bear-McClard. The two were photographed together at a Knicks game the same month. Davidson, however, was recently seen several times with his Bodies Bodies Bodies co-star Chase Sui Wonders, while Ratajkowski was seen with artist Jack Greer.
A source close to Davidson told Hollywood Life,
“Pete is still friends with Emily, but things were never that serious between them, so he’s handling the split just fine. They were never in a committed relationship, to begin with, so there is no bad blood between them.”
The source added,
“Pete couldn’t commit to a serious relationship because of his busy career. Also, Pete ‘completely understands’ that Emily ‘wants to date around for a while.’”
Another source revealed to the outlet,
“Pete was down to take things casually until he realized that Emily’s head was in an entirely different place than his with this. Seeing Emily out with other men did get to him, but he knew that it shouldn’t because he was not her boyfriend. He is down to be friends with her but does not know if this is going to happen. They are both so incredibly busy right now with their careers.”
Moreover, Davidson and EmRata’s romance took center stage, which did not help their chances of a future together.
A source said to the outlet that Davidson’s 9-month relationship with Kim K noted the extent of the publicity. The insider said,
“It stressed him out, especially after Kim. Moving forward, he is going to be more guarded with his heart. He is a hopeless romantic, and that is okay. His friends think he needs to try dating outside the celebrity circle.”
The insider added that Pete has previously romanced Hollywood’s A-list women like Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale, and Phoebe Dynevor. Now, his friends suggest to the SNL alum that he should choose his next partner from outside the celebrity circle.
A Brief Look At Kim Kardashian And Pete Davidson’s 9-month Relationship
The wild ride continued for Davidson and Kim Kardashian in October 2021, when they were photographed holding hands on a roller coaster, not long after kissing on the set of Saturday Night Live. At the time, a source claimed they were just friends, saying,
“They hang out in the same circles so that they will meet up occasionally. It’s just friends hanging out.”
According to reports, Davidson arranged a private dinner for Kardashian on Staten Island a few days later. Later, the twosome appeared affectionate for a second date night in New York. The couple confirmed their relationship in November 2021. But after nine months of dating, the couple ended the relationship in August 2022, with sources saying that their demanding work schedules prevented them from continuing the relationship. As a result of their ongoing individual issues, including Kanye West’s online feud with them and the ex-couple’s Met Gala appearance together, the ex-couple remains in the spotlight.
