Kim Kardashian says she's ”ready to be happy again” amid Kanye West split
Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson are officially dating. Here's what we know about their relationship so far...
Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson have confirmed that they are no longer a couple, citing their age gap as a factor with being at 'different stages' in life.
An insider has now claimed that Kim felt 'totally exhausted' by their relationship, with a source telling Page Six that they 'are just in very different places at the moment'.
But, what has their relationship before they called it quitsl? Let's take a look.
After nine months of dating, Kim and Pete have broken up.
Sources told Page Six that their split was due to their conflicting schedules and the demands faced with being a mother-of-four.
“She felt like Pete was the extreme opposite of Kanye and it was good for her then...She initially thought it would be a fun fling, but then it got more serious when they were spending so much time together. Kim wasn't feeling like she was willing to settle down with him just yet.”
"Pete is totally spontaneous and impulsive and wants her to fly to New York, or wherever he is on a moment’s notice,” the source continues.
“But Kim has four kids and it isn’t that easy. She needs to focus on the kids."
Pete is in Australia shooting a film, and Kim is based in Los Angeles. They are spending weeks apart, however are sending 'love notes' whilst they are apart.
“Kim and Pete are in constant communication,” a source told US Weekly, adding “They send each other love notes while the other is sleeping and FaceTime whenever their schedules link up."
Pete has been filming Wizards! for the past month and has almost finished shooting.
The comedian opened up about his desire to have children in an interview with Kevin Hart.
He admitted that "I’m definitely a family guy. My favourite thing ever, which I have yet to achieve is I wanna have a kid. That’s like my dream. It’s like, super corny."
"I’m so excited for that chapter so that’s kind of what I’m just preparing for now, is just trying to be as good as a dude, develop and get better so when that happens it’s just easier."
Pete is currently shooting a film out in Australia, and Kim made a visit to her beau.
It seemed to be a very low-key trip, as a source told The Daily Mail that “This is the 1 percent of time that she doesn’t want to have to worry about getting glammed up and just wants to switch off."
Kim kept her visit on the down-low as she saw Pete, however it is known that she spent four days seeing him and left a 'generous tip' after visiting an Italian restaurant.
Kim uploaded a photo dump to Instagram, and eager-eyed fans noticed that Pete has a new inking.
