Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian aren’t dating right now, a source made clear to People after photos of them holding hands surfaced, but it’s not an impossibility, according to Page Six. The outlet was told that Kardashian has some interest in the Saturday Night Live comedian.
A source told Page Six that when it comes to Davidson, “She is intrigued. She likes him.”
The Sun also got details from a source close to Kardashian about her connection with Davidson. She finds Davidson to “one of the funniest people she’s ever met. After the year she’s had, she wants some more light hearted fun and that’s exactly what he gives her. Kim’s whole team loves Pete too, he fits right into her group,” the source said.
That source also insisted that they really are just friends. “She had a good time with Pete and he makes her feel young again but there’s nothing romantic happening,” the source said.

People was originally told by a source that Kardashian and Davidson’s connection comes from Kourtney Kardashian’s fiancé Travis Barker’s friend Machine Gun Kelly, who’s close with Davidson. “They hang in the same circles so they will be together from time to time,” an insider told the outlet. “It’s just friends hanging out.”
Kardashian is in the midst of her divorce from Kanye West. Kardashian filed in February. In late August, it was reported that the two were considering a reconciliation and repairing their relationship. In mid-October, a source told People that the divorce was still on.
“Kim and Kanye are friends, but that’s it. She is still moving forward with the divorce,” the source said. “She loves having Kanye’s support though. They were not in a good place around the time Kim filed for divorce. She is so happy that things are better now. It’s all very beneficial for the kids.”
