Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson reunited at SNL’s anniversary—discover what really went down and how they’ve moved on since 2022.
Did Kim and Pete Actually Talk at the SNL Event?
The exes exchanged brief words at the SNL 50th anniversary after-parties, but sources insist it wasn’t romantic.
A pal close to Davidson told PEOPLE, “He has nothing but love and respect for Kim” and emphasized he’s “still friends with pretty much all his exes.”
While sparks didn’t fly, their casual chat marked their first public interaction since splitting in 2022.
What Sparked Their Whirlwind Romance to Begin With?
Fans first noticed their chemistry during Kim’s 2021 SNL hosting debut. A viral Aladdin-themed sketch featuring a kiss and playful banter set tongues wagging.
Soon after, the pair rode roller coasters hand-in-hand at Knott’s Scary Farm and dined privately in Staten Island. Davidson later referred to her as his girlfriend, igniting headlines.
Why Did Their Nine-Month Romance Fizzle Out?
Busy schedules killed the vibe. A 2022 PEOPLE source revealed work and travel demands strained the relationship: “They both travel all the time, and it was hard.”
Davidson’s move to Australia for filming (The King of Staten Island spin-off?) clashed with Kim’s billionaire hustle.
Geographic distance and relentless paparazzi scrutiny added pressure.
How Do They Feel About Each Other Now?
Neither harbors resentment. A Davidson insider shared, “He and Kim still talk occasionally… They root for him.”
At the 2023 Met Gala, the exes shared a laugh with Usher, and Kim even briefly reached for Pete’s hand—a moment fans dissected for “secret reunion” clues.
Today, mutual respect seems to anchor their dynamic.
Pete’s Take on Dating in the Public Eye
Davidson has openly criticized the scrutiny. He told Page Six, “It was pretty humiliating… I was harassed for like five years.”
Despite the chaos, he’s maintained friendships with exes, including Kim. His mantra? “Everyone is dating everyone… but because I’m ugly, they wrote about me.” Brutal honesty, but relatable.
