The whirlwind romance between Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian has been over for a few months now, and it seems Pete is ready to shed all traces of Kim from his life. In Hawaii, he was spotted swimming topless with rumored new girl Chase Sui Wonders. And his tattoos honoring his ex-girlfriend Kim were nowhere to be found.
Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian met on an episode of Saturday Night Live when the latter appeared as a guest. In that episode, the former couple played Jasmine and Aladdin, complete with a kissing scene on a magic carpet. That was the start of their romance. Pete even had their famous first kiss memorialized on his body as a tattoo. Kim and Pete had been dating since October 2021, after Kim’s appearance on Saturday Night Live.
They seemed so in love whenever they were in public. Friends close to the couple also reported that Kim seemed so happy with Pete, which was good, considering her recent and messy split with ex-husband Kanye West. They were spotted going on vacations and premieres together until they made their relationship official in February 2022. Pete even rejoined Instagram during the start of their romance. He only followed two people, including his girlfriend.
About a week after getting his Instagram account back, Pete deactivated it again. Some fans have speculated it might be because of the drama Kim’s ex, Kanye, was wreaking on social media. Nevertheless, the romance between the couple was palpable, despite Kanye’s constant harassment of Pete on social media. Kim’s ex-husband has resorted to calling Pete “Skete,” and in a music video, Kanye killed claymation, Pete. Kim wasn’t happy about it and took it to the public, saying she did not tolerate that kind of behavior from Kanye.
Throughout the whole time, Kanye constantly bullied Pete online. Kim, to her credit, repeatedly spoke out about it, both to Kanye and the media. And despite everything, Kim and Pete were happy. Pete even had Kim’s name tattooed on his chest, the initials of Kim’s children on his neck, and “My girlfriend is a lawyer” on his clavicle.
However, the short-lived romance between the stars ended in August 2022 when they announced their breakup. The official reason mentioned was scheduling conflicts. Pete was in Australia, while Kim was in Los Angeles. It put a strain on the couple’s relationship. However, they clarified that they are still on good terms despite breaking up.
Now, five months after the breakup, Pete seems to have gotten all his tattoos related to Kim removed. In the recent photo of him taken in Hawaii, the inked designs were notoriously absent from his body. He is also rumored to be dating his co-star Chase Sui Wonders, even after rumors of him and Emily Ratajkowski being in a relationship surfaced. But according to sources, Kim and Pete have always been on speaking terms with each other, following the breakup. Pete even reportedly texted Kim in support after her ex-husband tweeted antisemitic sentiments and other controversial statements.
