Kim Kardashian is opening up about her relationship with Pete Davidson like never before, having shared in the latest episode of The Kardashians how she “was basically just DTF” when she first started seeing the former Saturday Night Live star as she didn’t expect to start a full-on relationship with him soon after. The pair have reportedly been dating since October, and judging by what her family has said about their doting romance, things couldn’t be going better for the couple, who have practically been inseparable ever since.
But in the latest episode of the Hulu series, Kim revealed how her initial intent to get with Pete wasn’t because she was looking for anything serious with the 28-year-old. The Skims founder said in her confessional scene that she was somewhat taken aback by the idea of having to kiss Pete for a sketch when she hosted SNL in October. “I was like, ‘Oh s**t, maybe I just need to try something different.'” The mother-of-four recalled how she had invited the New Yorker to her after-party along with family and friends, but Pete didn’t show up, which prompted her to contact the show producers to get ahold of his phone number because she was clearly interested in seeing him again.
After her marriage to Kanye West ended in early 2021, Kim expressed she was not looking to jump into another relationship right away — instead, she wanted to have a little fun by enjoying her single status again. “I wasn’t even thinking, like, ‘Oh my god, I’m going to be in a relationship with him.’ I was just thinking, ‘Heard about this BDE, need to get out there… I was just basically DTF.” Kim would later receive a text from Megan Fox, who informed her that Pete had a crush on her for much longer than she knew, leading the reality star to think twice about her DTF attitude to perhaps consider the idea of getting back into a committed romance after all.

“After we got together and it was a thing, Megan Fox texts me and is like, ‘Is this s**t for real? Because he asked me for your number months ago, and I was like, ‘Dude, you have a better shot of me and MGK getting eaten by crocodiles than you ever getting her number. Never going to happen. Do not ask us,'” Kim remembered of Megan’s text message.
The 41-year-old heavily praised her beau by describing him as “the best human being I’ve eve met,” who has the best heart and tends to be extremely funny to be around. There were practically so many qualities about Pete that Kim simply couldn’t overlook, so much that their chemistry wasn’t just about the sex but also the genuine love she has for him — something which has made her feel the happiest she’s been in a while.
