When Kim Kardashian initially went public with her relationship with Saturday Night Live star Pete Davidson, the world was definitely taken aback for a bit.
Some thought the relationship was nothing more than a PR stunt, while others thought the pairing simply didn’t make sense and probably wouldn’t last very long. However, the couple managed to prove opinions like these wrong as they are still going strong with multiple dates and a romantic getaway under their belt.
Even still, the public can’t help but wonder what exactly is causing these two to be so into each other nor can they wrap their heads around what drew Kim Kardashian, someone who wasn’t prioritizing her dating life, to Pete Davidson in the first place. We tell you everything to know below.
Why does Kim Kardashian like Pete Davidson?
Entertainment Tonight cites Davidson’s “sexiness” as one of the many reasons why Kim Kardashian is so entranced with him. They also go on to state that the actor’s personality and knowledge of comedy are what really drew her in. A source reports:
"Pete knows how to talk to Kim. He is the most confident guy, but not cocky. It is why it works with them. Kim thinks Pete is super sexy and likes how he knows so much about comedy, since that is a world she doesn’t know as much about."
As we know, Kim Kardashian certainly has a funny side to her, as she not only enjoys pranking her Kardashian-Jenner sisters but also had a great time poking fun at them on the Saturday Night Live stage.
Perhaps Davidson caught wind of Kardashian’s love of comedy as she dazzled on the SNL stage for the first time and perhaps Kardashian made note of how much Davidson made her laugh. She’d need the good vibes during a time where she was dealing with her divorce and various other troubling things in her life. Simply put, Kim Kardashian likes Pete Davidson because he’s a breath of fresh air and we could argue Davidson likes her for the same reason.
“Kim is just going with the flow,” a source expressed to Entertainment Tonight. “But they are spending so much time together, and things are really good right now.”
In this new year, Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson are certainly the couple to watch and we can’t wait to see more of their adorable relationship.
